Weekly Roundup: Two April Predictions, An Undermined Deal Or Agreement & Judgement & A Woman Waiting In The Wings
Week ending 6th/7th April 2024
A little later than usual this weekend, but here’s the roundup for this week’s readings, which included two for the month ahead! Let’s see how they do…
Decks-wise, we used the Sibilla Indovina, the Vera Sibilla, the Salish Kipper Cards, and two of Piatnik’s decks, their Traditional Gypsy Fortune Telling Cards, and their 1942 Mlle Lenormand Cartomancy cards.
Layouts included the Six Main Themes, which can be used with any Sibilla deck, the Mystic 7s, and the Kipper Master Card Spread.
Subscribers have access to all resource, card meanings and how to posts on any of the decks as well as the whole post archive. Check out what’s available via the Index here:
This weekend, we’ll be taking time off from the Vera Sibilla for a bit and looking at another derivative of the Lenormand cards, the US turn-of-the-century Gypsy Witch deck, and seeing how it compares!
This Week’s Readings
April Month Ahead I: Six Main Themes Prediction
These cards for April suggest a troublesome dark-haired woman at work this month, stirring up issues, bringing stress and burdens, or that she will be stressed and unable to relax herself. This appears to be linked specifically with a deal, a bond or marriage that is anticipated by or connected with her. It appears that an enemy figure or backstabber connected with the deal is going to be exposed this month and their plans likely foiled. Negative connections or agreements come to light. The exposed enemy appears to bring gifts or “advantages” that are actually unhealthy or dysfunctional or bring sickness instead of benefits. Great benefits and advantages that have apparently been expected or anticipated end up falling flat, perhaps due to being lacking in substance or built on sand. There are also two other figures appearing in the overview for the month; an important male figure and a woman who looks as though she is trying to attract him. So this is someone who is either flirtatious in the romantic sense, or trying to magnetise something or someone she wants to herself for her own advantage.
Meanwhile, the six themes the cards bring up for the month of April are:
A Trap, Cornering, Restrictions: Tears or expressions of grief or regret are designed as a trap this month, in ways that are likely to cause surprise. Unexpected displays of grief or sorrow may be designed to manipulate, and there be some shocks in store for those who are too trusting or susceptible to this kind of manipulation. Watch out for insincerity or tales of woe that don’t quite ring true.
Theft or Loss: News of a theft or loss or some documentation being stolen is likely to bring anger and disgust. This could well refer to public expressions of disdain over something being taken or lost, that perhaps something has been taken too far for most people’s sensibilities.
Sincere Support,Friendship, Trustworthiness: On the other hand, there’s great positivity when it comes to trustworthiness and sincerity. There is hope, positivity and general support for or from a wealthy older man, and the news appears to be more of the feel-good here. Displays of sincerity, trust, openness and warmth.
Soldier, Officials, Hierarchy, Discipline: A lonely or grieving woman, perhaps a senior one, likely in an official position, and a battle or dispute. It could also be that the woman is forced to defend herself against attacks.
A Break, Withdrawal, Stepping Back Grumbles and complaints in the background may continue, with someone’s withdrawal or break perhaps needing legal back-up, or legal action coming into the picture. Irritation expressed by lawyers over any infractions or invasions of privacy.
Entertainment, Fun, Frivolity: Gossip still seems to be on the cards in a big way, and people will still be enjoying themselves with it. It also may make some a lot of money OR some of it may actually have value — in other words, be “on the money”.
We’ll just have to wait and see with this, but it sounds like more Royal gossip to me. Same old, same old.
That said, celeb-wise, one bit of big celeb news this week was the surprise (or maybe not depending on your viewpoint) divorce upcoming of Sacha Baron-Cohen and Isla Fisher, and can’t help feeling that the Rebel Wilson story lurking in the background might have something to do with this and there might be some murk at the heart of it. Not sure it would necessarily come up in my cards though, but just a thought.
April Month Ahead II: Mystic Sevens. Damp Squib Celebration, Disappointment, Money Not Made
This reading speaks of news being delivered of a celebration, but over a deal or marriage going less than well, a party well and truly pooped. A sense of schadenfreude for someone, perhaps. There’s an older woman and a major disaster and collapse either for a child, younger family member or a new project, where there is a celebration of a theft or loss of the loyalty dreamed of or wished for. Benefits, gifts and treasures are anticipated, as well as the chance for moneymaking but any celebration is premature, and there’s an older man, possibly a benefactor, a young woman and a legal or moral advisor involved.
At the same time, there’s good luck with money AND loves and passions, plus a deal or agreement going on behind closed doors, or a marriage that brings despair and desperation over falsehoods or lies or insane attempts to lie and spread misinformation, to cover up perhaps. An older woman has apparently gifted money but a disaster is anticipated in terms of luck, chance and fortune, some kind of doom-mongering going on. A new project or a child is set to make money from love, romance or a passion but then we have our news of celebrations over a deal being a damp squib and nothing to celebrate at all. There’s a loss or theft involving a senior man privately, and loyalty of or towards a young woman bringing despair and desperation. There are dreams and wishes involving a moral or legal figure regarding falseness and misinformation.
The old woman has not been truthful or has hidden something bringing absolute disaster or despair for somebody. A child or new project that’s going on behind the scenes and a celebration of a deal or marriage, but the love is lost or stolen, so there could be infidelity on the cards. On the other hand, there is is good luck forecast for faithfulness or loyalty, so it looks as though that approach serves everyone better and brings compensations which are financial in nature.
There are also benefits for officials and those in authority who take a legal or moral stance, and a young woman is looking forward to the future or in waiting, while a senior man makes money. But alas, things will not turn out as anticipated; major disappointments are afoot.
Overall, we should be seeing this month comings together or separations, house moves, outside perspectives and learning in situations, mergers and devotion, defeat of a competitor or balancing disruptive elements, a bumpy ride with lots of ups and downs, but a sense of give and take in the face of disruption, all out wars and plotting.
This could be too, but there could also be other things it refers to. I’m curious about the “celebrated deal” that falls through, but not 100% sure what that is yet.
