Can a card with a figure imply myself?

Post by malachite »

Yesterday I took a card: Staves Knight upside down / reversed
Meaning: An jealous person who enjoys conflicts, which could be an aggresive man.

First of all it was my mistake of reading a crad while staying at home for the greater part of the day.During so I encountered some friends on Facebook, non jealous, nor agressive. My father came by to deliver my bike and I went to the terrace to enjoy some sun light, all alone. Excluding another woman and to waitresses I didn't speak to anyone. I sat there, enjoying my book about freemasonry.
While the image of the card was in my head I went out out with one person and sat in the corner of the cafe all night, discussing a documentary about Nazi Hunters which had Adolf Eichman as this episode's main subject.

And from that moment on it hit me, if the card would be correct, the jealous man could be either
Adolf Eichman, but I didn't encounter him, nor do I understand why a card could hint a TV documentary. Or it be me, because I was kinda jealous of something my friend told me; he found a very very nice job I also went after a week before.

So, could it imply on me (?)

Note: You might have noticed various questions regarding my Tarot, but I won't polute this forum by asking every day. Promise.

There's nothing wrong with asking questions everyday.

Yes, the card can represent you.

The biggest problem that I see here is that you're not really using all of the card. The short condensed meaning is rather useless when you look at all of the information that each card contains within it's imagery. You're not going to get accurate readings until you learn the cards better.

"The Knight of Wands reversed indicates delays and frustration, getting nowhere, and feeling anger at obstacles and at being denied what you want to have. "

"This Knight, when reversed, is impulsive, restless, impatient and lacking in foresight. He is so keen to just pursue his own interests or hurry things along that he fails to really understand whether he will be successful or what the consequences of his actions will be. If this is you, you need to be very careful of not rushing into things without thinking it through first. Even if you are starting to get frustrated with a lack of action, you need to consider the consequences before doing something."

Perhaps I should enlighten you why my reading could be too simple. This is my deck. As you can see, probably not read, it has been translated from English to Dutch. Originally it was English.

Here's a sample of my cards, both arcana's. And here is a sample of how my cards are described. As you can see the information is rather little/few. A lot of cards, mostly the minor arcana have 2,3 sentences of a descirption. The 4th image is not posted so you can read the 4 cards, but to give you a overall perspective of how my deck looks like.

If this deck appears to be "crap" in the worst case please tell me.

Start here. Booklets that come with most decks are awful. It does not have reveresed meanings, but they are a very modern invention, and one can understand the revrse quite well if one understands the upright position.

The deck itself is fine to use, as long as its complete and it has an art style you can identify and that illustrates the card meanings well.
