A tarot warning

I was given a warning that I did not heed to. A tarot astrology reading told me that the impact of Mars on my sun sign would cause risky behavior. I was asked not to make any hasty decisions that would cause regret.
I did not want to listen though the warning voice kept ringing in my ears. I went ahead and did something that I regretted in 6 hours. The outcome was a lot of pain and I regretted the move so much.

I was wondering whether some things are just meant to happen or was I just finding excuses for being foolish. I now have asked for the will-power to control my instincts and not make any hasty decisions. I pray for divine energy so I stay grounded and not get swept away by instant happiness and magical happenings.

I ask the cards for forgiveness for not respecting their guidance and I have to understand that the cards may not always tell me what I want to hear but they will always try to ensure that I walk the right path if only I want to follow.

Four of Pentacles

The question of the querent was about her husband's job and money.
The Card - Four of Pentacles.

I now work with Gilded Tarot as the energy feels right. The image is of a man holding on to 4 pentacles standing between 2 pillars.

I see hope and stability but a time for caution on spending as well. The general meaning emphasizes on security, the fear of security or a need for security.
The focus on material wealth is evident and also a distance from worldly affairs and reality. Yet there is hope in this card and all it takes is to turn back and look at the stars. There is advice asking to change your thoughts and to focus on more real things.

What does the card tell me today?

Count your pennies but also your blessings. Do not be fixed on material possessions. The world has a lot to offer if only you are willing. Be careful about spending on the wrong things today.

My prayer: Thank you for the abundant blessings that I am not willing to see, pardon me for my short-sightedness in dealing with life. Help me through this insecurity of earthly possessions. Guard my treasures and keep them safe. Let me see light today and believe that there is hope even when it seems dark.

Join me on this journey

I first experienced tarot when I got a reading done online and was drawn to them instantaneously. I picked my first deck when I traveled to Italy. I started on a course online to understand the meanings.
I picked the Rider Waite deck as most explanations were based on them. I started reading for friends and family; initially I followed the standard explanations. One day when I read for a friend I saw snakes but the image was not on the card. I closed my eyes and saw a farm house with overgrown weeds and a well. I told my friend and he said that there was a house like that in the village and there were snakes. He also told me he was having dreams of snakes everyday which I did not know until then.
It was an out-of-world experience so I started to talk to the cards when I did a reading and I used to see images that were not really on the card but were there (confusing??)

I realized I had an ability that was special so I meditated and asked for guidance before a reading and then it was no more standard formats but an intuitive process. I respect the history of the Tarot and the gurus whose experience and understanding is my bible of knowledge from where I draw inspiration, guidance, and triggers for thought.

The journey has been so awesome and magical. Now I read at the
Free Tarot Network and All Experts. It is a fulfilling and invigorating experience reaching to people, their questions, and their needs.
As I am a pranic healer and into Feng Shui, I sense the energy of the cards which take my intuition to another level. I also ask the tarot to suggest remedies and cures to remove negative chi and enhance the positive chi.

My learning: There is a force stronger more powerful than our imagination that guides life. It leads and directs but will not live your life. One's karma decides certain events in your life which are beyond the human understanding. The universe sends signs and symbols in various ways. Everything living and non-living has energy - both positive and negative that can be transformed. I am on a journey to experience this force and energy and its just the begining. I invite you on this journey as this knowledge is beyond any individual and what I know is only a page of this infinite book.
