Is it possible to determine if someone is the nobody by comparing readings?

U did nobody......should that compare to one who might be the nobody or one of the two witnesses?

Hello Dear Op.

I was wondering, (if of course you have time for my reading) if it will help if i give an idea of the reading i am looking for, or if the cards will show what they choose to show?

I'd like try something.

Can you pick 2 of these 12 zodiac "houses" that seem interesting?

[link to www.astroprofile.com]

The 7th house, and the 6th house.

Quoting and posting you so I don't miss this. I want to try to get started on something for you today.

Same as above, when I can get to it.

Can you look at the Zodiac houses and pick two that interest you as well?

8th and 9th.

I feel that I had a successful pull here, but the message is kind of distorted and spread out. I took down the entire list of cards so we can look a little more at some others just in case…

I'm listing all of the top cards for each house as dealt (this uses the full 78-cards) and I'll go into detail on the 6th and 7th stacks for now, with more in some possible follow-ups.


1st House (Self):
5 of Disks (Worry)
"Worry of some sort? But what, and how major?"

2nd House (Possessions):
The Tower (XVI)
"A change or transformation. Potentially unwelcome, but possibly necessary."

3rd House (Communications):
4 of Cups (Luxury)
"Emotional stability? At first glance.."

4th House (Home):
6 of Cups (Pleasure)
"Pleasure? On the surface.."

5th House (Creativity):
8 of Wands (Swiftness)
"Is it 'quick inspiration,' or is it 'quick attention necessary?'"

6th House (Service & Health):
Princess of Cups *
"YOU are here."

7th House (Marriage & Partnership):
Queen of Swords
"And also HERE."

8th House (Death & Regeneration):
Knight of Disks *
"A man may be here. Earthly, and stable."

9th House (Mental Exploration):
The Emperor (IV) *
"Order and structure necessary?"

10th House (Career):
The Lovers (VI)
"Is it a relationship, or simply humanitarian work?"

11th House (Hope & Wishes/Friends):
The Chariot (VII) *
"Is it travel, vacation, or a 'quick get-away' on the surface, or is something deeper that is necessary to proceed?"

12th House (Self-Undoing):
Queen of Wands
"Again, you may be HERE (or need to be).."


While shuffling, I decided to choose the Princess of Cups to represent you if there was anything of note in the desired houses. Immediately after I turned over the 6th, the first one that you wanted clarification on, your card was right there on the top, so that was good sign that I might have had a good target. :) Right under that, was a card that has been a big one that has been used to represent myself a lot, The Prince of Swords, so that was also interesting.

You wanted more information on the 6th and 7th, so here are the spreads for those. The card list will show the value of the card for counting from a specific court card, and the direction in the list (it wraps) is also shown. We stop at any card that is reached twice, and we can do a card-pairing at the end. The underlined cards are the ones that are reached via counting. The "!" means the card cannot be reached at all, from any card whatsoever.


6th House (Service & Health):
07 Princess of Cups * <counts up>
04 Prince of Swords *
03 3 of Wands (Virtue) !
06 6 of Wands (Victory)
08 8 of Disks (Prudence) *
03 3 of Cups (Abundance) *
07 7 of Disks (Failure) *

Total Sum: 27 (9)

00.) Princess of Cups *
01.) Prince of Swords *
02.) 3 of Cups (Abundance) *
03.) 6 of Wands (Victory)
###) 3 of Cups (Abundance) *

Counted Sum: 9

The interesting thing is that if you add the counted cards here, you get 9, and if you add all of the cards here, you get 9. So I'm going to list the Hermit card here again. But, I've written about it a LOT in this thread because it keeps coming up (though it is important.)

The Hermit (IX)

9: "Retreat within yourself to find out what you really want. Don't let yourself be influenced."

Now we start pairing these cards, and we can do a few things. Since we have you as a Significator (and secondarily, it seems that I may be in here as well.. this happens a lot.. just look at "The Bartender" mess and what came out of that), we can pair to the left and right of "you" and build a small story here about this area.

I will list the pairings and the elemental dignities to compare the strength of the cards in relation to each other. Some may virtually cancel out.


Princess of Cups *
"The Princess starts the inquiry. Service and Health."

[E] 7 of Disks (Failure) *
[A] Prince of Swords *
{Earth v. Air; opposing elements; cards don't feature strongly.}
"A matter in the context of potential (or realized?) Failure is brought to a man (Prince of Swords) for assessment."

[W] 3 of Cups (Abundance) *
[F] 3 of Wands (Virtue)
{Water v. Fire; opposing elements; cards don't feature strongly.}
"An Abundance of understanding, or other good moral qualities (Virtue) is necessary."

[E] 8 of Disks (Prudence) *
[F] 6 of Wands (Victory)
{Fire > Earth}
"Carefully, (with Prudence) the matter can come to fruition or a successful close (Victory)."


So, out of this stack, the most important card (to me) is simply Virtue. But an understanding of *what* is needed? This is where it is vague, and 6 or 7 cards can't really show much of anything. Maybe some of the other houses would be of interest here after these two?

Continuing, we go to the 7th, which is Marriage and Partnership. Here is the string of cards with their count values, sums, and following this is the actual list of card reached:


7th House (Marriage & Partnership):
04 Queen of Swords <counts up>
03 The Hanged Man (XII) *
04 Knight of Cups *
06 6 of Disks (Success)
04 4 of Wands (Completion)
12 The Moon (XVIII)

Total Sum: 40 (4)

00.) Queen of Swords
01.) 6 of Disks (Success)
02.) 4 of Wands (Completion)
03.) The Hanged Man (XII)
04.) The Moon (XVIII)
###) Queen of Swords

Counted Sum: 40 (4)

Again, both a counted sum and total sum reflect the same value. So here is what can be said about 40 or 4.

The Emperor (IV)

4: "Consider the matter in a sober and realistic way. Create order and be sure not to lose the red thread. Be persistent and determined, but be flexible as you turn your plans into reality."

Here is a crude analysis of what is in the seventh. Again, another female court card is here, so this could again represent you, or another woman in the picture, or simply just qualities when paired with another card. The male court cards could represent individuals as well, and I would tend to think that houses with court top-cards would be even more of a hint that they do.


[A] Queen of Swords
"The Queen starts it. Marriage and Partnership."

[W] The Moon (XVIII)
[W] The Hanged Man (XII) *
{Water + Water; The cards feature very strongly.}
"There is either an illusion (or fear) of being helpless, or a step not taken for some reason. Again, the reason could simply be fear. Maybe the issue could expose the queen in some undesired, but necessary way?"

[F] 4 of Wands (Completion)
[W] Knight of Cups *
{Fire v. Water; Opposing; Doesn't feature strongly.}
"A man may be here, and could be an object here in the completion of this issue. It could be of an emotional nature, but all of this seems vague."

[E] 6 of Disks (Success)
"(Material) Success.. But who, and how?"


From this, so far, do you have a slight idea at what could be going on here? We can look harder at the 8th and 12th houses, as they have court top-cards and this is a good indicator to me. These are a few other houses of interest to me, the 2nd, 10th, and 11th.

I will list those cards and will go ahead and send this basic and vague stuff here as this is getting kind of long. :)



8th House (Death & Regeneration):
Knight of Disks *
Fortune (X)
Knight of Swords
The Star (XVII)
Ace of Swords *
5 of Cups (Disappointment)

(..TBD..)


12th House (Self-Undoing):
Queen of Wands
7 of Cups (Debauch)
Ace of Disks
2 of Swords (Peace) *
4 of Swords (Truce) *
The Hierophant (V) *

(..TBD..)


2nd House (Possessions):
The Tower (XVI)
Ace of Wands *
The Fool (0) *
4 of Disks (Power) *
Prince of Disks
9 of Cups (Happiness)
The Magus (I)

(..TBD..)


10th House (Career):
The Lovers (VI)
9 of Wands (Strength)
10 of Disks (Wealth) *
8 of Swords (Interference) *
3 of Disks (Works)
2 of Disks (Change) *

(..TBD..)

The Chariot (VII) *
9 of Swords (Cruelty) *
7 of Wands (Valour) *
The Sun (XIX) *
6 of Swords (Science)
Princess of Wands

(..TBD..)



Here are some primary cards of note (in my opinion) in this interpretation that could benefit from further study (with more likely to come) in context of the 6th and 7th houses, specifically:


3 of Wands (Virtue):

Hello Akashic.

So the reading for the sixth house, im trying to decide if it is about me directly ,it does make sense as ive been on a long road with my health and im finally getting somewhere in regards to being able to receive treatments even though its extremly slow going. Or i can also take it in one other way, that i do need to be patient while the "significant other" goes through their health dilemmas... which ties in nicely to the 2nd reading in regards to the 7th house... But all in all they say the same... i need patience and over the past few years i have been tried on that virtue as ive never had any. Im not sure if im correct there what do you think?

And in the 7th house reading it ties in with the 6th house reading as i feel like the hanged man in both of these, the queen of swords definatley symbolizes my "significant other" (for lack of better word and "its complicated" status) The fear is spot on but for who... i fear being the fool/gulible and the other fears looking weak... maybe for both? Im not sure about the knight of cups, that card has me stumped im going to research it a little bit and see if the proverbial penny will drop.and the success... but who and how... is exactly what im feeling... The reading makes so much sense but when i try to make more sense of it and understand it better its overwhelming it doesnt make sense... and now im not sure if i make sense lol, anyway let me know what you think or if you feel you could shed a little light if im way off track. I am more then willing to look into any house you feel like looking into. Oh and... i was wondering... with the 7th house reading... i see it says success/completion (actually on both it does) so i was wondering does that mean i am on the right track so to speak? will this pay off or am i just the hanged man.fool, thank you again OP, i feel like all my houses are 72 pick up. and you make it looks so easy .

Hi OP, still doing readings? I'm up for one! I think I'm on the 'right track' but not sure. What do you see or hear or even if you don't feel like drawing cards, I trust your input. So however you wish to read for me, I will be very grateful.

Thanks!
With L&L

I'll see if I can work on something using just your post here. :)

Hi:)

I used your post to try to pull some cards for you at lunch. Here is the list, and a sort of vague interpretation (the cards were a little vague with what I had to go on, but that is normal.)


"Issue", Additional Influence, "Obstacle":
1.) 8 of Swords (Interference)
2.) 2 of Wands (Dominion)
3.) 2 of Swords (Peace)

Mental line:
4.) 10 of Swords (Ruin)
6.) 8 of Disks (Prudence) [reversed]

Physical line:
5.) Princess of Wands [reversed]
7.) Knight of Wands

Self, Other's view, Hopes/Fears, "Result":
8.) The Fool (0)
9.) 9 of Wands (Strength)
10.) Fortune (X)
11.) The Star (XVII)

Clarification:
12.) 3 of Cups (Abundance)

Sum: 66 (12/3)

The sum is 66, which reduces to 12 and 3; The Hanged Man (XII), and The Empress (III).

Quintessence:
12/3: "The matter has become bogged down. It will only blossom after a fundamental reversal or a new evaluation (The Hanged Man) and grow in a lively way (The Empress)."


The first card was Interference, followed by Dominion. This in itself isn't entirely telling, but it speaks more of creativity and will more than anything else. There is more about this idea that ended up coming forth with the following cards. One of the things in the 8 of Swords is an endless analyzing, or mental restlessness. A bit different than the more basic cards that represent those qualities, like Worry.

The "obstacle" was Peace, but this didn't seem to be about two people being at peace, necessarily. It could mean being at peace with yourself in some way. Continuing.. I think this fits in with some of the other cards to make a little more sense.

In the line of cards that is representing more "mental" processes, we have Ruin, which is usually a pretty dire card, but this card, working through its own 2 of Swords (Peace) tells me a different story. It is moving up to the 8 of Disks, which is Prudence, which simply careful consideration, and moving forward slowly with ideas and analysis, thus overcoming both itself and the first card, the 8 of Swords, in the process.

The Princess of Wands is reversed and in the leftmost "physical" card slot, and moves to the Knight of Wands. She is the daughter of that knight, and this is good. Her being reversed may simply mean to pay more attention to this card (and Prudence, above.) This princess is fiery, hot, and passionate. ;) Sounds good! I'd assume that you are female simply by this card (Princess of Wands) being in this position, but I could be wrong!

For your "self" card, it is The Fool, but don't take it personally. :) This isn't so much about foolishness, as it is here about creativity, or a hesitation or maybe even a slight "putting down of one's self" in the face of some of the other cards here. Typically though, it is a sort of open-ended card, and the beginning of "something" though that something might not have a vision or a clear direction just yet. This isn't good when all we do is use other people's thoughts, views, and perceptions to gauge our own self in too many ways (far too common today.)

Other's viewpoints here are the 9 of Wands, which his Strength. This is a good card, and there are a lot of fire cards in here. This card should overcome the negative qualities of The Fool and Prudence, and help the Princess take on the qualities of the Knight.

Fortune is the hopes and fears card, a good card of destiny, and the completion of natural cycles. A lot of symbolism, and I will link the card. There is much you can say about it, but it is all about fate, change, and the cosmos. :)

The Star is the final card, and it is another card that has a lot of meanings. Some of the larger meanings are up there with "the guiding light," and hope and trust in cosmic order an creation, things like that. Probably one of the better cards you could have here with these other cards.

The extra card that I pulled was Abundance, the 3 of Cups. This is a great card and symbolizes a lot of concepts, like pleasure, joy, and fulfillment, especially in terms of emotions.

So, a lot of words, for a lot of nothing. Kind of typical, but the issue here is kind of vague with only 11+1 cards. There seems to be a hesitation, or an interference, most likely with yourself possibly doubting something (which is kind of why you posted this) but I wouldn't worry about it too much. The Star as the last card is too good to pass up.

Maybe the Interference is self-inflicted and making you feel a little bit like that Hanged Man, and the only thing you need to really do is to be at Peace with yourself and simply know that you are on the right path (The Star & Fortune). :)

Hey AkashicRecord!

Thanks a ton!

Thank you so much and you're right I'm female and passionate... The fool could be because I'm considering abortion, because of SEVERAL reasons but you said, 'be at peace with myself and know I'm on the right track'. Ok, I am planning on doing this abortion early, less than 8 weeks, so I don't think the life inside me will feel it. The father and I think it's meaner to make a person grow up POOR on welfare, btw, the father and I can't even hardly cover our own bills and are struggling with money!. Neither one of us have cars and I don't even have a normal bed(just a type of mat on the floor). I don't know why money has been such a struggle and the father of this child and I have broken apart. I thought the holidays were going to be wonderful and now I'm not going over his parents and I'm alone. I'm 36yo. This baby I feel was a curse instead of a blessing. Now what do I do? Play the Lottery and hope for a MIRACLE. I have Psychic Skills and Healing Skills (Reiki)but I have no car and people seem to have the attitude, that since Psychic Skills are a gift they expect to pay little or hardly any money in exchange. If I was rich I wouldn't mind but it's the skills I have and Portuguese people mainly live where I'm stuck living right now, don't know what Reiki is and are probably 99% Catholics, so the demographics, well, ya'know... I've spent a lot of money on herbs like Pennyroyal and others and have been taking for a few days but not sure if they will release the fertilized egg or blood clots(induce abortion). I know a woman long time ago heard did this and was successful at getting it out(don't mean to sound harsh)
So you think the herbs will work or I will win the Lottery?
BTW, I live in Fall River, MA and if you knew how horrible the school systems are and the crime and the energy of this city, nobody in their right mind would want to raise a child here. Rent is cheap and that's why I'm here. BTW, yes we used birth control. I feel like this is the worst thing that could happen to me because I don't want to suffer any bad karma for inducing abortion or getting the surgical one. Maybe this gave you a lot more clarification and with that just maybe the 'fool card' meant going back with my ex was a mistake that caused this mistake. What would you do in my position?

Thanks Ak

Hello again Op.

I have been re-reading the reading over and over again and maybe the blonde hair dye has sunken into the scalp... but Am i doing the right thing by being patient and waiting or should i break my path to find the success i need... even cheshire cat... do you see anything there that im missing, some sort of obvious answer that im to naieve to seE?

also i am a free user so i cant reply to messages sorry

Do you think that your nobody reading.......would be similar to a reading for...one of the two witnesses (the nobody)??????

There is someone here who fits within the parameters of this mysterious and unidentified nobody....but...it's been said these witnesses do not and could not kow...they are prophesied?

You seem like someone ready to take a chance......why don't you use this post or ask them who I am....see my blog.

What would you like me to do, specifically?

Edit: which blog?

Hello, again.

Over the weekend I did a more in-depth spread on your situation, and unfortunately, it is basically the same sort of "result" (as you will soon see) and again very vague.

This is the nature of the Tarot in these cases (my experience, anyway). It is NOT any sort of "fortune telling" game, or anything of the sort. That should be relatively impossible, as it would require that we do not have any free will or choice in our lives. Something which is pretty obviously not the case..
(Although it can certainly feel like it at times..)

Anyway, I am still working on the notes for this. I probably won't be finished until tomorrow, but your response concerned me a lot, and I was thinking about it all weekend.. Even *my own* recent readings have shown aspects of your situation, i.e. The Princess of Disks, which never shows in my own readings. That card can often relate to pregnancy and fertility issues..

And now for something (almost) completely different..

Here is a REAL "NOBODY."

A while back, I remember hearing a story about a man (the only man) who is registered as "missing" yet his whereabouts are actually known. The catch is, he has completely disassociate amnesia. He doesn't know anything about himself.

His "name" is Benjaman Kyle, and he was found behind a Burger King years ago, and he didn't know anything about himself or how he got there; or rather, the information he thought he knew was very sketchy (of course)...

"Benjaman Kyle":
[link to en.wikipedia.org]

So I had a desire to try a reading on this man since he knows about as much about his own self than I do. The perfect challenge!


Here is an unfinished, full, 78-card reading for him and some aspects of his situation. I chose the Knight of Cups for him while shuffling the cards for a good 10 minutes or so, and quickly cut the deck into the four elements...


Tarot reading for "BENJAMAN KYLE" (A *real* Nobody), performed ~12:15pm Pacific, 11/13/2012:


Fire (will, ego & doing):
9 of Swords (Cruelty) *

Water (emotional matters):
6 of Disks (Success)

Air (mind & hopes/fears):
7 of Swords (Futility)

Earth (material matters):
The Empress (III) *


Right off the bat, we can see that there is an aspect of Cruelty on the side of the ego, and "doing" things. Essentially, a form of hardship. This moves to a sense of Success, emotionally, yet Futility in the aspects of the mind. The Empress is the top card of the earth stack, and this represents growth, mothering, nurturing, and "The Great Mother."

So from just these 4 cards alone, we have a hardship, mentally, yet success emotionally, and the hint that he has been taken care of.

His card (the Knight of Cups) was located in the fire pile, so the issue is what what he is doing / has done, or what had happened to him.

Here is the list of cards, their count values, followed by the list of cards in the count, and finally, the final pairings to the left and right of his card using elemental dignities:


CARD LIST (Fire):
09 9 of Swords (Cruelty) *
10 10 of Cups (Satiety)
03 3 of Cups (Abundance)
12 The Hierophant (V) *
04 Prince of Wands
07 7 of Wands (Valour)
05 5 of Swords (Defeat)
08 8 of Swords (Interference) *
04 Knight of Cups * [counts up]
11 Ace of Swords *
04 Knight of Disks
12 The Chariot (VII) *
03 The Hanged Man (XII) *
04 Queen of Disks
03 3 of Disks (Works)

04 Queen of Cups
07 Princess of Swords *
09 9 of Disks (Gain)
04 Knight of Wands *
02 2 of Swords (Peace)
04 Queen of Wands


COUNTED LIST:
00.) Knight of Cups *
01.) 7 of Wands (Valour)
02.) Queen of Wands

04.) The Chariot (VII) *
05.) 9 of Swords (Cruelty) *

08.) The Hanged Man (XII) *
09.) Knight of Disks
10.) 8 of Swords (Interference) *
##.) 9 of Swords (Cruelty) *

{TODO: Brief "summary" story...}


Next, we pair to the left and right of the card until we run out of cards. I'll note elemental dignities where there is a big effect on the meaning (strong/weak, etc.)


PAIRING:
[W] Knight of Cups * [counts up]
"He starts it."

[A] 8 of Swords (Interference) *

Overall, I think this was an amazing reading, especially considering the target individual. :)

I have no idea if the person that originally helped him was female or not. It seems to be female in this reading, but that could be incorrect and could just reflect qualities of the individual.

One of the biggest things that immediately hit me, was that Interference and The Ace of Swords were the first cards paired. Those 2 cards are, in my mind, the best cards that could represent something like amnesia, or dementia... I couldn't pick a better pair to represent that.

There are more messages in the other 3 stacks when pairing those, but I will keep this short, as it is long enough already. :)
