Starlight spread:
Still using XX as querent and Shapeshifter for deck.
quote Thirteen> Konraad recommends this spread for the END of a reading, when you want to bring it to a close. The idea is that anything not clear, the star will shred light on. So you can say to the querent, "Let's finish up by shedding light on anything we might have missed with this last spread....
Meanings:
#1 Foundation of the question or problem, what's beneath it, what is it based on
(example, if you got the Tower, it would mean it was based on lies)
#2 Influence of the past on
the present
#3 Immediate future given past and present
#4 action or lack of action required for a good result--this is what the querent needs to do or not do to make things fall into place. For example, using our new lessons in reversals, if you got the 7 of wands reversed, it might mean that you shouldn't fight to keep this thing to yourself.
#5 Others involved who can
help
#6 Opposing forces
#7 Best possible outcome given that the querent takes the cards' advice, uses friends, recognizes foes (opposing forces), takes/doesn't take certain actions.
Thus, the first triangle (1,2,3) examines the problem/question. It's foundation, where it is given the past, where it's going given the present.
The second triangle (4,5,6) sheds light on what the querent can do to make the situation the best it can be. Action he can take/should not take, people who will help, people/things which will oppose him.
Think of the first triangle as a passive overview, the way things have been and might be, with the second as the active, on the ground view, what can/should be done about it? < [Top]

Reading:
Ok, seems no one want to go first with this one *S* so I'll break the table.
Since this spread is for wrapping up I'll use FairyHedgehog again and the reading from the horse shoe.
Cards:
#1: Merging (4 swords)
#2: The Well (ace of cups)
#3: Memories (6 of cups)
#4: The Sacred Flame (ace of swords)
#5: Struggle ( 5 of wands)
#6: Deception (7 of swords)
#7: The Four Winds (ace of wands)
I'm still using Shapeshifter. [Top]
My first impression of this layout is, a new start with something old (could be a returning once loved one). A new way of thinking. A new passion showing. Struggling with and deceived by some one near by or from the past.
(#1)The main issue here is still making a new way of living for your self. It seems you're spending time meditating, thinking on how to go about it. You see your self as one with all things and this could be the way you want to live.
(#5)You are struggling your way through, someone very close to you is not helping at all, I can't help thinking it could be the devil again from the horse shoe spread.
(#6)It looks like you already have putted your trust to a person you maybe are discovering to be less trustworthy,
(#2+#3)this is giving you a hard lesson in how to combine wisdom and love. putting the pieces together from your experiences and memories should give you the skills to divide trash from the good guys.
(#3)It will give some strong memories, some good times will be darkened with shadows and the dark times you might want to paint just a tad brighter, in all your time of looking back may not be the happiest of times for you, but you already know it must be done.
(#5+#6) As I see your cards your very much alone on this one, both friends and foes are giving you a hard time, fighting you in every way, they ( though I think it's ONE person) might even be deceiving you for personal gain.
(#6)If you have any disfavor-able doings from the past, this process will bring them out, make sure to face your own responsibilities and don't deny them.
(#4)It seems in order to get want you want, you're about to make some very tough decisions here, some of them might hurt so much that you are vague in making them, but it's not going to do you any good not to.
(#5)The decision you have to make is yours alone, no one will help you make it, it may lead to a separation from some one close to you. [Top]
(Summon up the spread+#7) By letting your self free, dealing with the past, making the decisions required, breaking up old patterns, discovering who's stealing your love for personal gain, not loving back, cutting those off that are against you, learning to trust and love those who deserve it, you'll be giving your self the space and time you need for that new way of life you crave so much for. You will have the world for your feet free to do what ever you want to do.
That's what I'm getting from this, it looks to me like the devil from last reading is having a stronger hold on "querent" than first met the eye, seems to me he's the very close by foe that needs a bolt of lightning in the a..... (the sacred flame illustrates a woman struck by lightning hence decisions may not always be nice to make but they do clear up the weather ). [Top]
