These readings are amazingly well-written. Here's mine:

Quote:
Dearest S.P.I.,

As you have chosen Death we offer you a reading:

Like the Death card, you are often misunderstood. Also like the Death card, you have strength and freedom of spirit.

Death symbolizes transformation, but in order to benefit from change, we need to remain open to it and not be afraid of it. Change always brings with it life experience, growth, learning, and opportunity.

Eventually, we will bring our story up-to-date and introduce you to the Anna who is alive today and who faces an entirely new and different set of challenges. You will have an opportunity to work with Anna directly, and we know you will play an essential and pivotal role in her current journey.

Like many people, Anna may be frightened by the Death card as it appears in her story. It will be your job to reassure her that this card is actually welcome and she should not fear change or what is to come.

With Many Blessings,
Sivvy, Ginny, Annes, Melia, & Norma


Death & The Tower are my favourite Tarot cards, so I am pleased to have been able to choose one of them.

My reading:

Quote:
As you have chosen Justice we offer you a reading:

Like Justice, you seek balance and you crave duality. You are neither purely intellectual nor purely emotional. You have a purity of purpose and are capable of seeing both sides to every story. That is why Justice is blindfolded. It's not that she's blind, it's that she looks at everything with an impartial eye and an open heart.

This card signifies the importance of a balance between the logical mind and the emotional heart. The ideal person not only demonstrates both, but recognizes the importance of both.

Eventually, we will bring our story up-to-date and introduce you to the Anna who is alive today and who faces an entirely new and different set of challenges. You will have an opportunity to work with Anna directly, and we know you will play an essential and pivotal role in her current journey.

You can help Anna come to understand the importance of balancing emotions and intellect, as she tends to focus on one and bury the other.

Thanks to Aman for the heads up; I've sent them temperance so will hopefully be asked to choose my new card soon.

I'd wondered about the hermit too; good thinking! Smile

my reading Smile

Dearest Angela,

Quote:
As you have chosen The Tower we offer you a reading:

Choosing The Tower shows that you wish to set yourself free from false beliefs, philosophies, and opinions and rebuild a foundation for your life in which you are true to yourself.

The Tower indicates destruction and endings, but also the ability to see the truth and build anew.

Eventually, we will bring our story up-to-date and introduce you to the Anna who is alive today and who faces an entirely new and different set of challenges. You will have an opportunity to work with Anna directly, and we know you will play an essential and pivotal role in her current journey.

It will be your job, as Keeper of The Tower, to help Anna examine her beliefs and determine whether or not she is on solid ground or if she should shake things up.

Sincerely,
Sivvy, Ginny, Annes, Melia, & Norma

All these readings are quite interesting! Here's mine:
Quote:
Dearest Pia,

As you have chosen The Chariot we offer you a reading:

Like you, this card carries great potential. The key to this potential is that it requires effort to bring it to fruition, just as it requires effort and momentum to keep The Chariot in motion.

But rest assured, this effort results in triumph, victory, and the mastering of long-term goals. By drawing this card you show that you have the tenacity and self-discipline to stick to the path you are on and the ability to overcome any obstacles that may be in that path.

Eventually, we will bring our story up-to-date and introduce you to the Anna who is alive today and who faces an entirely new and different set of challenges. You will have an opportunity to work with Anna directly, and we know you will play an essential and pivotal role in her current journey.

It will be up to you to help Anna keep a forward momentum and overcome obstacles in her path. Together you will achieve great victory. Also, as you will see, travel will play an important role not only in your life, but in Anna's life as well.

Best Wishes,
Sivvy, Ginny, Annes, Melia, & Norma

I've also been wondering if Aiden is the keeper of the High Preistess?

Just noticed that the Cardkeepers have been following me on twitter thought I take a punt to see what is going on. Although I'm being really lazy and can not be bother to read through 47 pages of the thread, anyone got a summary or wiki started?

Think I'll scroll back 3 pages though, might get a sense a of it.

Welcome, Seadevil, Welcome!

I don't know how helpful it is, but the PMs themselves gave us this wikispace:

http://cardkeepers.wikispaces.com/Wiki+Home

@Sarah B: I tilt my head at you! I doth implore you to explain your hypothesis, for it pulls my curiosity. Cool

Curiousity got the better of me and I went back 6 pages and discovered the wiki thx all the same though. Sorta up to speed now.

Not sure that Tower card was the cause of the Anna's father office going up in flames though. Anna dropped the Ten of Pentacles which is all about ' possessions being passed through the generations'. The fact that she dropped it and that these tarot cards can be used to change events may mean the loss of the card destroyed the office with the possessions she was meant to get.

So do I just emailed them and say card please? Preferably one that doesn't push me over 21.

ETA: Looks like I'm onboard the Skylark:

Quote:
You are quite delightful. We are not witches (we leave that to Winter), we are ghosts. Not in any traditional sense (we don't rattle chains or float about old houses), but rather we act as advisors to Winter, and sometimes we fill in as Keepers. Sometimes we just watch and observe, sometimes we intervene, and sometimes we go away (worldly games can sometimes become tedious).

We are pleased to choose a card for you! We are giving you the sun, because you bring warmth and energy to our mission.

Very astute observation about the significance of the Ten of Pentacles and its relevance to the turn of events in Anna's story. That's all we will say for now, but you will see the impact of her dropping that card when we return to Anna's story. You will also come to understand the role of The Tower and The High Priestess as they were presented to Dr. Ellershaw.


ETA2: Yet more words of wisdom from Winter:

Quote:
As Keeper of The Sun we offer you a reading:

The sun plays a role in the cosmic scheme as both a center-point and anchor in the heavens, and a conscious mind and active energy on earth.

Like the sun, you ground and direct others with warmth and energy, while also illuminating things that haven't been seen before.

This card will bring you happiness and prosperity.

Eventually, we will bring our story up-to-date and introduce you to the Anna who is alive today and who faces an entirely new and different set of challenges. You will have an opportunity to work with Anna directly, and we know you will play an essential and pivotal role in her current journey.

You can bring light and happiness to Anna in her darkest moments.

Winter Sylvana in an email wrote:
The Fool, The Magician, and the High Priestess are all currently taken by long-term Keepers who play an important role in Anna's story. The High Priestess is currently unknown but will be revealed soon. The fool is now Winter Sylvana and the Magician is still Anna.


Am thinking the High Priestess Keeper isn't Fireman Aiden since we already know him & he said he's the Keeper of the fire element. And like you, Sarah, am very curious esp. with Dr. Ellershaw saying "Did she send you?" when Anna handed him the High Priestess card. **am so antsy for an update** Cyas...

My reading

Quote:
Dearest Spoon,

As you have chosen Strength we offer you a reading:

Like the card you have chosen, you carry with you a powerful inner strength. However, unlike blind force or rage, your strength (both physical and mental) is well-controlled and beneficial.

Power must always be balanced with patience and diplomacy rather than fueled by aggression.

Eventually, we will bring our story up-to-date and introduce you to the Anna who is alive today and who faces an entirely new and different set of challenges. You will have an opportunity to work with Anna directly, and we know you will play an essential and pivotal role in her current journey.

You can show Anna that she can solve her problems with through quiet determination rather than force.

Faithfully Yours,
Sivvy, Ginny, Annes, Melia, & Norma

Here is my reading; I chose the star.

Quote:
As you have chosen The Star we offer you a reading:

Like The Star, you bring peace, hope, and faith. You often help others find their way and you enjoy being a guide. You also create harmony and provide balance in your interactions with others.

Not only do you reflect truth, but you bring a sense of optimism and healing to others. Choosing this card shows that you have a bright future and are destined for great things.


Eventually, we will bring our story up-to-date and introduce you to the Anna who is alive today and who faces an entirely new and different set of challenges. You will have an opportunity to work with Anna directly, and we know you will play an essential and pivotal role in her current journey.

You can help Anna to leave the past behind and learn how to love again, showing her that better things lie in her future.


Love Always,
Sivvy, Ginny, Annes, Melia, & Norma

Shocked UPDATE

Quote:
Ash
Aiden was asleep when he got the call. He'd made a big lunch and dozed off in front of the television. The others were playing a heated game of ping pong. He actually wasn't on call until that evening, but showed up at the station early to hang out, since he would be leaving town soon for an extended period of time and wanted to say goodbye to all of the guys.

When the phone rang nobody really thought anything of it, since fire information usually came through dispatch. However, because he was sleeping lightly and not in his usual environment, Aiden jolted awake quickly at the sound.

It was Morgan who answered. She was there several days a week as a volunteer to meet part of her ENT training requirement. She tried to be one of the guys but was a little too pretty for any of them to feel entirely comfortable around her. However, she was smart, nice, and did a good job.

Morgan listened to the caller on the other end for a moment and then dropped the phone and bolted for the alarm. As the shrill noise rang out across the station she yelled, "It's a fire, boys, let's get it in gear! It will probably come over dispatch in a minute, but it's only two blocks away. MOVE!"

Everyone scrambled for their gear and quickly loaded up the truck. They were a regional fire house whose main job was to help the neighbors prevent forest fires and get cats out of trees, but every once in awhile they were asked to help the City fire department with a big fire.

When the address came up on the dispatch screen Aiden jumped into the front seat of the rig. He turned to Jerry who was clamoring into the back and said, "I know this house, I'm driving." Then he turned to Morgan and asked, "Who was on the phone?"

"Mrs. Collins. I know her older daughter. She said, 'This is Katherine Collins, and when that bastard comes back it will all be gone. I've set fire to everything. When he comes back the house will be ash. You'd better hurry before the trees catch.'"
