I wish I could figure out how to figure out passwords Smile I tried a bunch of random things, but never came up with the right one. Alas.

I have emailed. Oh and I also did ask for a key and got the fire triangle. I have to go to dinner at the in-laws' (UGH that means dry, over cooked chicken and soggy microwaved vegetables) so I might not report back until later if a response comes while I am suffering there.

To begin Winter Sylvana in an email wrote:
Tell me your element and pick a number between 1-14.

After emailing my element (symbol: water) Winter sent me a reading. So, those who didn't get a "key" should still email Winter with archangel in the subject header

Then Winter Sylvana in a "moving forward" reading wrote:
You have drawn the Page of Cups: This card indicates that you are kind, thoughtful, creative, artistic, polite, and sensitive. Not only do you possess these qualities, but you take it to heart with other people who are thoughtless or cruel to others.

Drawing the Page of Cups usually means happy news for you or someone close to you: new love, marriage, birth, a new job, or somebody new in your life who is positive and important.

The purpose of drawing a Page in a reading is to be reminded that new events, new things, and new people always arrive in our lives, often when we least expect it or when we need it the most. So when you are tired, sad, discouraged, or bored; take heart in the knowledge that tomorrow is a new day with new adventures, new puzzles to solve, new goals to reach, new people to connect with, and new experiences.

Interesting reading for me atm. Guess the eggs.jpg was a foreshadowing of the idiom 'Don't put all your eggs in one basket' & am antsy for an update on Anna's Story.

Yeah, I sent my element also, but haven't got a reading yet. I actually got confused about which element we should send, the key we got from Winter or the element of our own card. I did send the key and apparently that's what they meant.

I just chose the element I liked the best.

Quote:
Here is your reading moving forward:

Six of Wands:

In this card the number six represents harmony and balance. That fact that you have drawn this card means that others will be happy for you and you will feel a tremendous sense of accomplishment when you achieve your goal. This will be a well-deserved accomplishment that comes without baggage or petty jealousies.

Sometimes you may feel as if you work hard to no avail. Perhaps you feel like you are never getting ahead or just spinning your wheels. That is the point at which you must not back down. We are most exhausted, discouraged, frustrated, and closest to giving up when we are about to learn, change, grow, and come into our own. Take heart: you will be rewarded.

All of my love always,

Winter

my reading - it's not too far from accurate to be honest lol

Quote:
Here is your reading moving forward:

You have drawn the Queen of Swords:

The Queen of Swords is an independent woman who takes a no-nonsense approach which may seem unemotional, but is not. She simply has excellent instincts and perception and has mastered the ability to set emotion aside to concentrate on what is important in the moment.

Drawing this card demonstrates that you have a large reserve of inner strength gained through personal experiences, both good and bad. You have an independent streak and the desire to take care of yourself and others, rather than be taken care of. Hold onto and cultivate this strength, for you will always need it moving forward. But don't neglect or fail to balance your emotional side or the part of you that can turn to others for help in times of need.

All of My Love Always,

Winter

Now I got my reading

Winter Sylvana wrote:
You have drawn the Ten of Pentacles.

This card represents status, honor, and abundance, as well as the security and stability of home, family, and material possessions.

You have drawn a beautiful and positive card which demonstrates that your heart and mind rest on a solid foundation of love, acceptance, and satisfaction. You were taught as a child, or have acquired this wisdom as an adult, that to appreciate and love what we have is the best way to feel content and happy. Gratitude for the gifts that we already possess (both mental and physical) is the key to bringing even more wealth into our lives.

All of My Love Always,

Winter


Took me a while to actually realize that that's the number and element I chose Very Happy I feel so smart.

Here's my reading;

Quote:
Here is your reading moving forward:

You have drawn the Two of Cups:

This card represents growth in a relationship that is important to you, be it a romantic relationship, a family member, or a close friend. It means either that the relationship has changed or will change for the better, either by moving to a new level or deepening in some way.

This card will bring a wonderful, positive, balancing energy into your life, an energy that can only serve to enhance your interactions with others, shining a warm and bright light on all that you mean to the others in your life. You have a marvelous ability to provide balance in your relationships to others, adding humor, kindness, and patience where it is most needed.

All of my love always,

Winter

My reading:
Quote:
The Queen of Wands has a warm, attractive personality and is generally cheerful and busy with a number of different projects at any given time. She is fiercely loyal to friends and family and protective of others.

You are kind of person who likes to live and work in a state of merry chaos. However, when faced with an important task you need to find a way to be focused and organized, even if it means asking for help from others. You also need to make sure to find time for yourself, for quiet reflection or to engage in personal pursuits that nourish and sustain you.

If I saw things from Winters POV I would probably feel much better about myself Smile

And a new post, Clara: Part One
Quote:
Anna heard the gun go off and felt Clara stiffen next to her. The man in the black coat dropped the gun and ran away.

Then Anna realized that although Clara had put her arms around Anna to protect her, she was now holding onto Anna.

"I think I've been shot," Clara whispered. She let go of Anna sat on the floor. Anna felt like time stopped and everything around her dropped away.

Suddenly Aiden was kneeling beside Clara, pressing his hand against her abdomen as blood spread across her shirt. Anna could hear Martin crying, but she never took her eyes off of Clara. Clara looked at Anna and smiled.

"You were always the one, little sister. You were always my favorite one."

Shocked

Noooooo Clara!

I don't suppose there's a card of healing we could try submitting and see if it helps any?

Could be. Although the title "Clara:Part One" made it seem like she won't die, doesn't it?

The Card Keepers wrote:
Clara: Part Two

One day when she was in a study carrel at the library, Clara noticed that a book had been placed there that didn't belong to her and that she had never seen before. She picked it up and examined it and noticed that it was a very, very old book about something called The Mantegna Tarocchi. While it looked interesting, what really struck her was the realization that it was not a library book.

She rifled through it, looking for identifying information, when a very old playing card fell out from between the pages. Clara picked it up and noticed there was writing on the back. It simply contained the name of a building and an office number. Clara knew the building; it was right across the street. She decided to go there now to see if she could locate the owner of the book. It looked valuable.

It only took minutes for Clara to find the office. She knocked on the door and a woman answered. Clara had seen her before around campus. She was something of a legend: very beautiful and young-looking, but someone who had presumably been a professor for decades. The students were quite intimidated by her and nobody really knew her true story, although the rumors abounded.

Clara held out the playing card and the woman smiled warmly. She took the card and said, "I thought you would never come."
