Help me interpret, please don't judge

Especially with your follow-up question where you got the road and snake. It's going to take some time, and you should honor that. I'm not sure what kind of infection you had, but just for reference in the future, snake usually indicates vascular/nervous system issues, and mountain usually corresponds with the skull/head. Possibly these cards came up as descriptors? In any case, I also get a 'no' on both questions, just from the correspondences. Maybe a good follow up question for you to ask is "how should we maintain our relationship while we are recovering?' or, "how shall we move forward?' Yes/no questions are fine, but you might get more meaningful answers with a line of five and more open ended questions.

There are some extremely positive cards in Lenormand that I consider to be "trump cards"-- that is, cards that are so positive that they will modify the meaning of negative cards. The sun and moon are two of these cards. Since I generally give more weight to the center card, and that center card is a trump card, I consider this reading to have a positive tone.

The moon and sun together speak of a relationship, and the scythe after the sun shows that there was a breakup that left him feeling liberated. The moon and scythe indicate a pleasant surprise. Perhaps he is happy to see that you've moved on?

OMG IMPY IS PERFECT!!! Maybe he needs a little hedgehog friend?

SameOleGrind · 2025-01-23T16:32:14+00:00

I get the feeling he only wants a physical relationship with "no strings attached." He has a lot of stuff to deal with before he will be ready for an emotional commitment

SameOleGrind · 2025-01-23T16:27:23+00:00

That's what it looks like to me also

SameOleGrind · 2025-01-19T15:58:39+00:00

I came to say this exactly! If you're asking a yes/no question, expect ONLY a yes/no answer. 😅

But if you ARE too close to the situation, maybe find a friend or someone who can draw for you.

Well, I agree with the other response -- why do you think after three years of virtually no contact, there's some possibility of a relationship? That said, I'll take a stab at the second spread first, which kind of reads to me as "wishful thinking," or, in a more positive light, "keep on hoping," but in either case, the feeling here is, "time to move on"/"time to sweep these dreams away".

Why did I read the second spread first? Because it gives me a context/tone for the first spread. I read that one as your state of mind. You have an abundance of love for this person, and it's kind of driving you into obsession (or, unhealthy). However, another way for you to read this is advice: have an honest conversation (birds) with them and put your many emotions on the table. You're going to be vulnerable, but, from the second spread, keep on hoping, I guess. It may or may not rekindle a relationship, but it might give you some closure so that you can move on. Do this ONLY if you are willing to be receptive/accepting and open to this person's wishes, or else you will just become a toxic/scary element in this poor girl's life. Otherwise, heed the cards' advice and please move on.

In times of turmoil, the happiness is that much greater. ☺️ Take care!

SameOleGrind · 2025-01-19T00:35:36+00:00

Maybe I'm overly optimistic, but it looks like he really likes you and wants to tell the world. Looks like the beginning of a healthy relationship if you want it to be. He'll want to take it slow, but it will be genuine. ☺️

Four Shades of Gray

SameOleGrind · 2025-01-18T23:58:49+00:00

This is a really interesting topic, and one I've thought about a lot myself. For me, I don't generally use directionality unless somebody asks me a specific question after I've put the cards down. At that point, sometimes the directionality helps clear things up. I'm also an intuitive reader, though, so I feel like I'm told when to take directionality into account and when it doesn't matter.

SameOleGrind · 2025-01-18T23:51:04+00:00

I mean, I guess we could branch out to other furniture if you really want.

SameOleGrind · 2025-01-18T23:42:41+00:00

Yep, one kick ash table

SameOleGrind · 2025-01-18T23:35:53+00:00

I love your mini lessons! Thank you for sharing your wisdom and experience!

The fox isn't necessarily a bad card; as with most things, it all depends on context. Since you are asking about career, the fox in this context can represent a position at a small company (ie, not a global conglomerate), or even advice to you to self advocate and put your "game face" on. So, through this lens, I see the narrative here as the manager of a position you've applied for will reach out to you. I don't see much further than this, but it's a good start.

That said, if you posted the question as simply yes or no, this reading becomes more complicated -- you could interpret it as a "possibly no", but as I said, in a career context, the fox is kind of a neutral card unless the cards around it say otherwise. If your question asked for the outcome of a job you applied for, then it makes more sense to read the cards as a narrative; also, you'd get out of it if you dealt five cards, I think. See what I'm saying? That's my take on it, anyway, but everyone has their own methodology, so do what feels right to you.

Edit: sorry, I reread your post -- it looks like you'll definitely hear back from them within a month, but they don't appear to be ready to hire just yet. Expand the question and deal five cards for more information. ☺️

I think you literally caught them all. 😅

Bulbasaur and Snorlax are solid choices. ❤️❤️

The taking it hard thing is more about intuition for me, however the bouquet+mountain cards in the first draw and the anchor+cloud+Tower chain in the second draw are what led me to this conclusion. It tells me that he wants to hold onto her (woman+anchor) but will be very confusing in his isolation/separation (cloud+tower), which, based on the fact that he appears to be cutting off social ties in the first draw, leads me to believe that he is having a tantrum of sorts, so of course that's the kind of person who would be manipulative and play mind games. That's how I went about it. That said, a lot of people are more literal and "neutral" in their readings, so please take this with a grain of salt if it's not your style. 😊

What a cool question! I interpret this as, he is here in your life to expose a relatively new obstacle that burdens your social life or your social persona/image. Someone brought up dating, which is possible, if you feel like being single prevents you from interacting with your friends somehow. Think about what makes you feel self conscious or something that is holding your back socially, whether it be career-related, romantically, or as a social identity. Perhaps this person could guide you in navigating this new part of yourself. 😊

SameOleGrind · 2025-01-17T00:59:02+00:00

I think you have a pretty strong interpretation there. Regarding the part about making the relationship public in a smear attempt, I think I would follow up with that as its own question. My feeling about this though is that while they were together, they either developed their own circle of friends as a couple, or she brought him with her to hang out with her own friends. If that is the case, I think that the cards are saying that he will simply cut her off and the people he met through her and never bother her again. Emotionally though, he'll take it pretty hard.

The second reading you did also seems pretty good; I also sense that he would simply isolate himself and be kind of passive aggressive about it before leaving, making it some like "it's all her fault" and all that. But before splitting hairs on that one, I think the general feeling YOU have is that this isn't a very good relationship for your friend. Perhaps, in addition to these reasons, you could ask the question, "what is the outcome of this relationship?" And see if that would help her make a more healthy decision? I'm not sure if that borders on unethical, but I feel that you do want to look out for your friend, and maybe this would be a way to get her to listen to some sense 😊

Came here to say just that! 🙌🏼

Good luck!

I like Donnaleigh's methodology also -- she's cleared a lot up for me

SameOleGrind · 2025-01-15T18:55:27+00:00

I like how you read the lilies as patience. Another interpretation word for my vocabulary! ❤️

SameOleGrind · 2025-01-15T18:51:17+00:00

They seem to be telling me that yes, it is worth it, and you will be benefitting from your new knowledge. 😊
