your reading 
Oooh, very interesting reading, which confirms my intuition, btw! (and you are quite right about the wink, wink
) I wish I could have shared the biscuits afterwards
Intrigued that 2 out of the 3 animals were African, btw - and part of the Big Five.
I'll give you some feedback later, but first I want to do your reading.
*****************************************************
I took out my Thoth for this question - monetary and emotional success in a creative career:
Where you are: The Star
Where you want to be: 9 of Cups (subtitled Happiness).
Interesting that purple/lavender, and blue dominates both cards, bringing a strong spiritual element to the question. In the second card, the flowers are gold and shine a golden light on the purple cups, which makes me think not only of emotional and spiritual success, but of prosperity
Cups dominate both these cards, since the Star maiden - in the Thoth the goddess Nuit - pours two cups out: she is seated on a crystal and pours spirals of purple into the starlit night. Her hair undulates back and forth too. Crowley writes of the spiral that it is, as geometry, the best approximation of life, which is more like a spiral than a straight line. Our goals are seldom reached by the shortest route between two dots – or two tarot cards. Even space curves, and time certainly does. Bear that in mind for your question. The overall message of these two cards seems to be – keep flowing towards your goals and remain flexible.
I drew three runes from the Elder Futhark to answer your tantrum. Runes are very much to the point!
The first I drew – “Do” – was Uruz, which means Ox, Bull, or Auroch – a large extinct bull from Northern Europe. All these are symbols of strength, endurance and hard work. Oxen, of course, were used as work animals for much of human history, and still are in parts of the world, as is their cousin, the water-buffalo. They have a huge capacity to pull heavy weights for long periods of time. So the advice here seems to be – do yoke yourself to that cart that is your cherished creative life, and pull. It will demand endurance, hard work and commitment in order to pay, and not just give you some enjoyable hobbies. Uruz gives you the strength to do that, and the fact I drew that rune for you certainly indicates that you have that strength in you. Uruz knows how to push through change, as well – it is not just a passive beast of burden. Think of bulls that charge, and think of taking the bull by the horns. That’s more or less what you are going to have to do. For a craftswoman artist like yourself, Uruz is a wonderful rune, because it is also the rune of shaping, of producing, of making things happen, of depending on your energy to carry through a project.
“Don’t do” – Berkana. The Birch. Now that is an interesting rune, because it is the rune of beginnings. It is telling you not to start from scratch, not to drop everything for the grand life of an Artist. Because birches grow in groves, Berkana is also the rune of families, and this, I think, is telling you not to depend on what is too familiar – stretch yourself outside your comfort zone. Berkana is said to be the womb of the mother goddess, because of its shape (it looks like a B – breasts, or a pregnant woman). It is a rune that suggests the earth and gestation. It’s telling you that the time for gestation and small beginnings is over – you have enough confidence and strength, and expertise in your arts to go for it (Uruz), though the going might get tough. It is also telling you that acting in a feminine fashion is not the way to go now. Berkana is female energy, whereas Uruz is male, and this reading is clearly telling you that if you want to make money with your art, as well as find emotional satisfaction, you are going to have to break down a few fences and not be too dainty about it.
The outcome is – Nauthiz, Need. How badly do you want this? No, I’ll rephrase: how badly do you
need this? Because Nauthiz not only predicts delay and a hard road, but is also telling you that if you want to make it with your arts, you have to be hungry. With Uruz on your side, you have all the strength and power you need to take on the challenge of Nauthiz – but only if you have that need in your belly – the one that says: I can do that and nothing else. If security and comfort are more important to you – then don't even start: you wouldn't make it.
The whole reading seems to be singing that song to me – “When the going gets tough, the tough get going”. It’s in your hands Zannamarie. The reward is nine cups of gold brimming with happiness and success. But what an adventure to get there!
Tantrum!
What to do to get something you want as soon as possible!! LOL!! This is a bit of a fun 3 card spread - using both Tarot & Oracle for a second week with a bit of a difference.
. I was glad the elephant came right way up, though, because this relationship is a great deal more. But well, lovers' reunions to tend to be...you know!
