This Week: Attempted Charm May Fool, But Irrational Behaviour Fails. A Lashing Out Is Possible
Week commencing 19th Feb 2024
Please accept my apologies for the lack of post about the Vera Sibilla Playing Cards over the weekend; for those interested, it should be with you this afternoon, the first of THREE about this topic (it’s quite a big one!)
We’re back with the Russian “Gypsy” Fortune telling deck by Svetlana Touchkoff for this week ahead, a Ukrainian/Russian Pasyans deck from the early 20th century and remarkably Lenormand-like in many of its images.
Find out how the meanings compare, how it works and what extras this deck has here:
The images for the week ahead were as follows. You’ll see I missed out the Branches right at the end, but have included them in my analysis.
The Images
32 Moon 1 (Peace). Although life is uneventful, there’s happiness nonetheless. Enjoy what you have.
41 Cat 1 (Hidden Danger) Someone will be charming and persuasive, and could well get away with it.
47 Demons 4 (Subconscious Negative Thought) Fervour will not lead to any good. Irrational, frenzied activity.
20 Forest 4 (People Around Us) Beware of nets that are thrown your way. It’s for their benefit not yours.
9 Bouquet 3 (Happiness). Fulfilment of a hope. Don’t give up.
18 Dog 4 (Relationships With Friends/Allies) A change of friends & allies. Lost or gained.
16 Stars 1 (Destiny Influencing Life) Guiding star will bring you to your goal. Ambitions realised.
11 Branches 4 (Reconciliation or Unpleasantness In Family) Tears, offence. A lack of consideration or hurtful behaviour.
Overview (Read in initial position and then in Position 1 for all)
11 Branches 4 (Reconciliation or Unpleasantness In Family) Tears, offence. A lack of consideration or hurtful behaviour, then making up after that quarrel.
10 Scythe 2 (Fate Upsetting Life) A threat will be heard that will have consequences. Evil fate is in pursuit.
21 Mountain 1 (Danger) A treacherous enemy trying to catch you, be on your guard
7 Snake 3 (An Attack By Someone) A loss bringing a verbal sting by a malicious person
It looks as though there’ll be a short period of calm this week, for most of us. It’s better for things to be undramatic than dramatic. But there is a persuader about, someone who is charming, who will be allowed to get away with what they want. Alas, fervour and passions will do no good. There may well be irrational, frenzied activity, but it is pointless. We are urged to beware of “nets” thrown our way, supposedly to benefit us; the benefit is not ours. Nonetheless some hopes can be fulfilled at this time, but there may be a change of friends, allies, allegiances. The loss of some, the gain of others. Ambitions can be realised, but only if there is a focus on what is to be achieved. We may see in family life more tears, upset and offence, and a lack of consideration, hurtful behaviour. There is a chance of reconciliation, but a threat will be heard that should be taken seriously. Evil fate is in pursuit, and a treacherous enemy is trying to cause harm, so guardedness is essential. A loss will bring a verbal sting by a malicious, spiteful person.
I wonder who’ll be laying on the charm? And who is not making empty threats?
Let’s see as the week goes on.
