The Woman currently has some influences above her, but has influence over more. Her position in the spread indicates that she has a LOT coming up ahead and is more future focused at this time. In terms of where she’s at, things look pretty good for her right now; she is standing in the House of Bouquet (position 9), so if she was in a play it would be all about blessings, gifts, beauty and the nice things in life! She also has Bouquet influence right above her, and the Key next to that, so lots of Yesses and significant blessings and gifts. This suggests she’ll receive an important gift, an award, perhaps. She’s got changes coming ahead too, indicated by the Storks right next to her. Beneath her is the Heart, showing romance, love and passions, and this is being influenced by the Fish, for enterprise, cashflow and business. So it could involve her love life, but seems more likely to involve her making money from her passions. Looking at how the cards around her influence things vertically, we can see that she and her passions are blessed at the current time, which will bring important, even fated, changes with regard to her enterprises and cashflow.
So let’s get a bit more detail of those key influences around her and also what might be further coming up ahead.
There’s not really much more we can immediately tell about what form the “blessing” (Bouquet) will take except it marks something significant for her (Key). That in itself relates to knowledge education or a secret in some way, perhaps a literal book (Book),
The changes coming up (Storks) seem to relate to something agreed or promised, a deal perhaps (Ring)and with again that element of a secret, education, books or knowledge involved in it (Book) as well as enterprise, cashflow and business (Fish).
Her loves and passions (Heart) are very related to her business interests, and it looks as though she will be making cuts or a decision about them (Scythe), perhaps prioritising.
Her business/enterprise interests (Fish) do seem very tied in with her passions (Heart) and also longevity, maturity (Lilies) so perhaps they have taken a while to mature. They are associated with that expected change coming in her life (Storks). The decision itself involves something to do with communication (Birds); perhaps she will be communicating it, perhaps it is around communications.
Rows, Columns, Diagonals
This is a time of significance for her (Key). She is blessed (Bouquet) and makes a decision about her loves or passions, probably to cut something out (Heart-Scythe).
This could well be related to her business ‘home’ (Fish-House) and how that impacts on her hopes and dreams, her big goals for herself, that are really ‘her’ (House-Stars).
An agreed ‘change’ or new start is on its way (Stork), although any agreement or deal may be delayed or prevented for a time (Ring-Mountain), probably by official channels (Tower), which may bring worries and anxiety or may undermine her status (Mice) and how she is seen by the wider world (Mice-Garden) and overseas (Garden-Ship).
BONUS: Further details through knighting
The Woman herself: knighted by the Birds for communication, and also Book and Lilies, showing her knowledge and wisdom has grown over time
The Blessing or Gift: Knighting the Bouquet indicate it’s likely to have something to do with a deal or agreement (Ring) and money or enterprise (Fish)) so could be something quite tangible, a prize perhaps. It is in the House of the Rider, so is on its way!
Whats fated or “Key” (Key): This is knighted by what looks like a long-developed passion or love (Heart, Lily), although it may experience blocks and delays or take a long time to come to fruition. It is in the House of Clover, so represents something lucky, an opportunity or good fortune.
The upcoming change (Storks) is in the House of Scythe (decisions) and is being knighted by the Scytheand House, indicating decisions made about her domestic life or where she is at ‘home’, as well as the Moon and Clover, indicating creating her own luck, manifesting opportunities.
Her loves or passions (Heart in the House of Storks, showing changes and new starts) are knighted by the Key, showing their significance, as well as the Ring and House, showing a commitment around her domestic life and where she feels at home.
The business and enterprises (Fish) linked to that are knighted by the blessing of knowledge and education or a book prize (Bouquet-Book), but also that there may be a blockage or distance relating to a particular man or men, or she may encounter a male enemy (Mountain and Man)
Our Lady’s Story, then:
Our lady currently has some influences above her, but has influence over quite a lot in her life. She has a LOT coming up ahead and is more future focused at this time.
In terms of where she’s at, things look pretty good for her right now; her life at the moment is all about blessings, gifts, beauty and the nice things in life, and she has significant blessings influencing her; so lots of Yesses and lovely things. She could even receive an important gift, an award, perhaps. Whatever it is, it’s important, even fated, and could well relate to a book or body of knowledge she has learned. Her knowledge and wisdom has matured over time and she may have been communicating it. There seems to be some kind of commitment or deal attached to this, and it relates to any enterprises or business she is engaged in and also her cashflow; it could even be a cash prize! Whatever it is, it’s on its way at this time. This could well be related to her business ‘home’ and how that impacts on her hopes and dreams, her big goals for herself, and what is really ‘her’.
In general, this is a time of great significance for her. She is blessed and is likely to make a decision about where her loves or passions lie, which probably will involve being ruthless and cutting something out. There is likely to be a “Yes” answer with regard to a long-developed passion or love, although it may still yet experience blocks and delays or take a long time to come to fruition. It does appear to represents something lucky, an opportunity or good fortune.
She’s got major changes coming immediately ahead too. The changes coming up seem to relate to whatever it is that gets agreed or promised, a deal perhaps and with again that element of a secret, education, books or knowledge involved in it as well as enterprise, cashflow and business. It is likely that she will have to make decisions about what to keep, what to let go of, particularly in her domestic life or where she feels ‘at home’, so that she can create her own luck and manifest opportunities. She should be aware though, that she may find any commitment, agreement or deal may be delayed or prevented for a time probably by “official” channels or bodies which may bring worries and anxiety or may undermine her status and how she is seen by the wider world and overseas
She is likely to be quite focused on her loves and passions which are influenced by her enterprise, cashflow and business interests. She is likely to be making money from her passions. Both she and her passions are blessed at the current time, which will bring important, even fated, changes with regard to her enterprises and cashflow; they seem highly interconnected. She will be making cuts or decision about them perhaps prioritising or having to be swift; there will be new starts and changes in this area. What she is passionate about is highly significant, and she’ll need to make commitments regarding her domestic life and where she most feels at home.
Her business/enterprise interests are very tied in with those passions and also longevity, maturity and life experience, so perhaps they have taken a while to mature. They are linked to the blessings of knowledge and education or even a book prize. She should be warned, however that they may later connect to a blockage or distance relating to a particular man or men, or she may encounter a male enemy. Perhaps someone will decide he doesn’t like what she is doing and will do his best to prevent her. Regardless, her business interests will likely drive that expected change coming in her life. Any decision or cuts she makes here will likely involve something to do with communication or how she communicates.
