The Reading
As we see, there are a lot of potential ‘characters’ here: A Man and a Woman, the Rich Girl, the Official or Soldier and the Rich Man. I’m going to focus the reading on the Main Man & Woman, mainly because they’re appearing at the top, so it seems to be ‘their’ story here. But it’s all a matter of perspective, really. I’ll leave it to you to decide who they probably are.
Starting with the Main Male, we can see that he’s associated with an Official Person, perhaps someone in an official position, and looking to his left for what’s ahead for him, we can see there is money and Sudden Wealth for a Privileged Lady, so a rich young woman with money, followed by what looks like an attraction to or ‘Courtship’ with Bad Health. A wealthy younger woman attracting or courting bad health, something wrong, unhealthy situations.
Meanwhile, behind him is the Main Woman in the situation and it’s has her ambitions, dreams, wishes and goals (Distant Horizons, Hope, Big Water) that are key in this reading. Ahead of her is news or notification about a reward or honour, or is well-regarded in the news (High Honour, Message), and there appear to be Thoughts about bringing an end (Coffin) to the waiting or impasse (Expectation) for a Rich Young Man/Wealthy Man or business interests, which this card sometimes represents. The ending appears to be very well-starred (Great Fortune), although it may take some time, around two years (Pathway/Long Road) to come to fruition.
If you go from left to right, you can see the Courtship of Sudden Wealth for both this Man and Woman, and she in particular will be thinking about High Honours and Great Fortune. So it’s all about money and position. But in the bottom row, under the surface, we see an unhealthy situation (Bad Health) relating to the Rich Girl and this Official Person, involving ambitions and dreams (Distant Horizons) and news of an ending (Message, Coffin) that’s been coming for a long time (Pathway). It appears there’s been a waiting game for a rich young man (Expectation, Wealthy Man).
Looking at the cards diagonally from the point of view of the Main Male, we can see his focus is the association with a Rich Girl and a Courtship or relationship. Behind him, we see his ambitions and goals (Distant Horizons/Hope, Big Water), for High Honours and a fortunate ending (Great Fortune, Coffin). Looking at them diagonally from the point of view of the Main Female, we can see behind her an Official Person, so someone in an official position, that involves great wealth and abundance, but also an unhealthy situation (Sudden Wealth, Bad Health). Ahead of her, we have news or a Message of waiting, of Expectation, so she could be holding fire in some way. She also appears to be thinking about the message (Thoughts, Message) and the time and route needed (Pathway/Long Road) so it could involve a plan of a couple of years.
We can also knight some of the cards. The Main Male is knighted by the Bad Health card, so he’s not going to be doing things in the most healthy manner, but in the past, has been very lucky with news about him or his “Message” or press (Message, Great Fortune). The Woman, meanwhile, is knighted by the Rich Girl, so may have been that person in the past, but has an ending (Coffin) ahead of her, so likely to be bringing things to a close.
Other knighted cards include the Courtship card, showing there’s been “courting” of an Official Person who is in high position (High Honours) over a period of time (Pathway/Long Road). The Sudden Wealth card has the Distant Horizons/Hope, Big Water card knighting it, showing dreams and ambitions for money and big wealth, but also thoughts about waiting (Thoughts, Expectation) biding your time, or being in an impasse in some way. Meanwhile, that Expectation card that reflects that influence, is knighted by the High Honours and Great Fortune card, so someone is waiting for their big moment of glory to come. If you knight the Great Fortune card, you get the Message, so there’ll be good news. Meanwhile, the Rich Man is knighted by the Message and the Pathway/Long Road, so it may take a while for this news to emerge about him.
A man acting in an official capacity or in relation to an official person sees money for a rich young woman by attracting or courting unhealthy situations. Meanwhile, a woman has ambitions and dreams to receive high honours and rewards, and she seems to be thinking about bringing an end to an impasse with a rich young man or a business enterprise. This is well-starred and has luck on its side, but may take some time to come to fruition, possibly a couple of years from now. The man’s focus is his relationship with a rich girl; behind him are his dreams of high honour and a lucky ending. For the woman, behind her, she has an official person or someone in an official person that involves great wealth but also deep unhealthiness. Ahead for her, we see news of a waiting game, and she’s thinking about the message and the time and route needed, planning for how long it might take. The man has been very lucky with his “message” or news about him in the past, but will not be dealing with things in the healthiest ways going forward. The woman has had the role of “rich girl”, but is likely to be bringing this to an end in future.
Overall, it’s all about the money for these two, and she in particular will be thinking big, about high position and great fortune. But it’s underpinned by an unhealthy situation with a privileged young lady and someone in an official position that involves ambitions and news of an ending that’s been coming for a long time, involving a waiting game for a rich young man.
An official person in a high position has been courted in order to gain money and big wealth, but it has involved both biding their time, thinking and planning. Someone, perhaps both, has been waiting for their big moment of glory, but it may take some time to emerge.
