This Week: Warning Of Enemy Plans & Vengeance; Reminder That Those Grieving Are Still Subject To The Law
A look at the week ahead for w/c 18th December 2023
I will be looking at some year ahead predictions over the next couple of weeks, but didn’t want to make ALL the posts about that as that’ll be a bit too intense I think.
So I’m starting off the week with this useful Week Ahead layout, an expanded version of one that originally came from the Grimaud’s latest Sibylle des Salons deck. I say expanded, because I prefer to use more than one card in each position to give a bit more of a story. As a reminder, here are the instructions for this layout:
This week, I’m using Piatnik’s Traditional Zigeuner Fortune Telling cards, the meanings of which are very similar to those in the Vera Sibilla. You’ll find a list of them in this post here:
Here is the layout for the week:
The Cards
Enemy, Thought, Death; Sorrow, Love, Sweetheart; Unexpected Joy, Money, Lover; Misfortune, Thief, Sickness; Some Money, Letter, Message; Visit, Judge, Widower; Baby, House, Falseness
Underlying energy: Marriage
The Reading
The layout works by reading each group of cards in different sections.
Theme Of The Week
Enemy, Thought, Death
This suggests that the news this week will be dominated by thoughts of the death, or ending, of an enemy figure, or enemies. The thoughts or plans of an enemy could be in the frame also. Dangerous times are forecast, I’m afraid, as this has quite a vengeful energy.
Positive Influences
Sorrow, Love, Sweetheart
Those more loving and caring than vengeful will be expressing their sorrow over it.
Negative Influences
Unexpected Joy, Money, Lover
A male lover figure will unexpectedly gain money or value.
A Surprise
Misfortune, Thief, Sickness
An unexpected disaster is forecast that will bring losses and dysfunctional reactions
A Challenge or Lesson
Some Money, Letter, Message
There appears to be news or communication about money gained which will prove challenging
Advice
Visit, Judge, Widower
Expect to see the visit of a lawmaker or a legal judgement on those grieving losses. Those grieving losses should remember they are still subject to the law.
Synthesis/Overall
Baby, House, Falseness
Something new, a supposed new beginning in a place, an institution or a family, turns out to be a false start.
Underlying Energy
Marriage
A deal or agreement; a commitment or promise is involved
So not the cheeriest, I’m afraid.
Summary: The Week Ahead
The cards suggest that the news this week in the run-up to Christmas will be dominated by thoughts of the death, or ending, of an enemy figure, or enemies, and a promise or commitment. The thoughts or plans of an enemy could be in the frame also, so caution is advised. Dangerous times are forecast, and a vengeful kind of energy is apparent in the week. All is not lost, however; those more loving and caring than vengeful will be expressing their sadness and sorrow. But a male lover figure will unexpectedly gain money or value, which will upset some. There could be another surprise disaster, something destructive, bringing yet more loss and a cycle of dysfunctional reaction, and there appears to be news or communication about money or value gained which will prove challenging. Expect to see the visit of a lawmaker or a legal judgement on those grieving losses, and even those rightfully grieving should remember they are still subject to the law. Overall, something new, a supposed new beginning in a place, an institution or a family, will turn out to be or have been a false start.
