I did the typical 3-Card spread....
So THE GUIDE in my deck is also known as Temperance in others ... so I went to a trusty place to pull meanings since I'm still kinda learning....
Temperance wants you to know that you can blend opposites together and find harmony. You maybe seeking the truth and want to discover new awareness. You are very in tune with the vibrational frequencies around you.
You maybe in a situation that needs constant bits of work and adjustments to make it just right. You will need to take things in moderation and not go to the extremes.
Temperance maybe about the wide open country, big skies and a relaxing healing environment that facilitates the natural flow of energy.
Temperance as a person indicates that your soul has fought through many incarnations for religious freedom. Because you probably fought for religious freedoms, you have a high sense of justice. You want to defend the weak. You stand up for what is right.
You have incarnated here on Earth again to be a funnel for higher frequencies. You are probably very interested in your own spiritual development. You are probably in tune with your dreams, spirits and angels.
Temperance in romance is very independent. It suggests tribulations in relationships and unequal unions. Temperance in romance is also yearning to be with the "one" or no one. Temperance in romance does not settle because they tend to have an attitude like "I'm here for a reason and with a mission." That mission may not involve romance. A temperance person may say things that can be mean and cutting too.
Temperance tells you that you will heal after a breakup. S/he may come back to give you closure.
Temperance is about healing. Especially talking it through with someone. Temperance people love to ask questions and fix problems. Temperance almost never indicates a reconciliation between two people after a breakup.
Temperance as a feeling allows any unrest to settle. It brings calm, knowing and harmonized feelings towards a person or situation. You may even feel like a project is finally perfected.
Temperance advises you to keep your cool and not get hot tempered.
Temperance can indicate mixing together essential oils and making home made bath products.
Temperance and Ten of Cups (Future Spot) in the same reading:
a. Families of opposites work together in harmony.
b. Opposites attract and merge peacefully and amicably together.
CAULDRONS is also know as CUPS ....
LET ME FIRST SAY .... I am a Moonchild. I am Cancer (Zodiac). So this card ... feels like .. a big fat DUH ...
Moon in Cancer brings in a sense of moodiness and despondency that is needed. The Moon rules Cancer and is in its natural home in the Four of Cups, this means that the moon needs its time to make its cyclic journey. Emotions can be up and down and with that comes melancholy. Maybe there was too much of a good thing in the Three of Cups, so in the Four of Cups we need to have a time out to reflect on what is passing. Give yourself sometime to relax, meditate and reject those things which do not serve you anymore. It's okay to go New Moon and disappear for a few days and like all cyclic this one is only temporary.
The Four of Cups often signals a refusal of some kind.
The Four of Cups can indicate someone making a hasty "no" decision without regard to thinking it through. The Four of Cups suggests that you should weigh all your options at this time.
On the other hand, the Four of Cups can indicate severe boredom and lack of interest that you will probably not regret. You could be on a date where you'd rather be doing almost anything else.
The Four of Cups suggests that you are depressed and perhaps too depressed to make good judgment calls. You maybe missing good opportunities because you are so sad. This sadness maybe caused by outside forces that you have no control over.
The Four of Cups can indicate being so hung over that you can't bear the sight of alcohol anymore. You are so hung over that you refuse drinking for sometime. The sight and smell of alcohol makes you sick.
If you are already in a relationship it can signal apathy and boredom. If you are asking about a potential love interest, then they will probably reject you.
The Four of Cups is all about feelings. Cancer can be very much affected by their moods, feelings and longing. In the Four of Cups, we have a man rejecting an offer. This suggests feelings of apathy, discontentment, feeling tired and probably turned off by whatever is in that cup.
The advice for the Four of Cups is to take the hand. Someone is offering you help in some way, yet you feel apathetic about it. You don’t want to accept, but need to accept help. This card can often come up for someone who doesn’t accept the cup, but ends up regretting it. It’s a sad position to get in love readings because the person really should have taken the stability of the fourth cup. It was written in the stars. The Moon in Cancer is in its natural position, so this is a “meant to be phase” that a lot of people miss. My advice is to take the hand. Ignore the man looking away from the outstretched hand. He’s a fool because that’s the hand of god. That is your destiny. If this is advice in love, it would be wise to go out on one more date, you never know what could happen.
Family happiness is a sure thing if you get the Ten of Cups. It can foretell of long nights spent with your family doing craft project or watch family movies together. You enjoy making meals together and they taste so good because they come from your heart. It can indicate that you are very happy doing all these things together. The Ten of Cups is the perfect description of family unity and happiness.
The Ten of Cups is the emotional contentment card. Find yourself lucky if you get this card.
The Ten of Cups is also about family, extended family and communities. You could be spending the summer with relatives at a summer home while enjoy the simple bliss of life.
The Ten of Cups can suggest that you are coming together with another person as a family. You both might have children from previous relationships, thus the Ten of Cups can indicate adopting kids. The Ten of Cups can also suggest that you and your spouse are a perfect family and have beautiful children of your own. Family happiness is assured when you get the Ten of Cups.
Tens can indicate an excessive of each suit, not necessarily the culmination. In the Ten of Cups we see us dreaming of the fantasy where wishful thinking and price charming stories play a big role. Be careful not to lose yourself in over idyllic fantasies and stories. There maybe a tendency to over idealize a situation before it happens.
If you are asking how someone feels towards you, then the Ten of Cups assures you that they feel completely emotionally content. They are in love with you for sure. They feel happy, secure and emotionally fulfilled.
When the Ten of Cups comes up in the obstacles or crossing position of your reading, it can indicate that you feel trapped in a relationship and may want a divorce.
It can also indicate that you are caught up in the emotional Pisces world of dreams and fantasies of the fairy tale marriage and family that you aren't seeing the reality of the situation. Pisces has a tendency to get lost in reverie and without action you cannot make the dreams concrete. You maybe spending too much time dreaming about the perfect relationship that you aren't allowing viable options to blossom.
If you are in a relationship, you maybe ignoring that the relationship isn't fulfilling you on a spiritual or emotional level. Maybe you have the perfect house, a great car and a devoted husband or wife, but deep down you are discontent. The Ten of Cups warns you that as an obstacle to your happiness you need to examine the root of the situation and find out if you are really happy where you are or if you are just caught up in the illusion of what you think the perfect relationship should look like.
SO........ hmmmmmm ...... it has me thinking a lot....
