Card 1 - The Hermit
Introduction: The Hermit is an extremely spiritual card, and often has to do with institutions and large organizations - everything from a bank to the entire Christian Church. This card indicates spirituality even if you are an atheist. It's in whatever sense the word "spirit" makes sense to you, even if for you "spirit" equates to "emotion." You may be trying hard to figure out what the "truth" is about someone (or some matter), don't feel that you have to do it all on your own, ask for help if you need it to gain different perspectives, more information, etc.
General: Just like with the Strength card, you may even more so be in the frame of mind that you need some time alone - don't be afraid to take it. Even if it's just a five minute walk around the house so that you can clear your head. This is also very much a card about "trying very hard to do the right thing." Just make sure that "doing the right thing" includes doing what is right for you personally, and not just worrying about the wants and needs of others.
Work: You are nearing the point where work success and recognition are well within your grasp. Do your best to be organized and productive. This will pay off for you in ways that aren't clear yet. Do the "right thing" even if nobody is watching. You are always watching what you are doing.
Love: It's possible that a romance from your past will be re-kindled. Is that really what you want? It seems that romantic relationships are not currently a priority for you right now. If your head says that you want nothing more than a romantic relationship; look at your behavior. Does it align with that analysis? In a committed relationship, you might have been moving in different directions for a while now. Make sure to make the time and effort to stay connected in order to keep the spark alive.
Finances: This is a time to be conservative when it comes to financial transactions and decisions, not that money seems to be your highest priority when the Hermit appears anyway. If you're investing, put your money in conservative stocks/bonds/money market with really good track records. This is not a time to gamble.
Health: Ritual of any sort will be helpful to you health-wise. (this could even be something like reading a book for an hour every Saturday afternoon). Any health problems could be drawing your attention to a problem that is not in your body so much as in your life; for example, a bad back could indicate that you are "carrying too much" metaphorically speaking. Take care of yourself.
Spirituality: It's very likely that at this time a person will come into your life who is like a mentor or teacher even if they don't "teach" you directly. You will still learn from them on several levels. Honor the need that you may be having to withdraw to a degree from ordinary life - It won't last forever. You will soon be feeling much more social, so don't push yourself now to be around a lot of people unless it is absolutely necessary. You will likely emerge from this month feeling refreshed and renewed, particularly on a spiritual level.
Card 2 - The Fool
Introduction: The Fool is always an indicator of newness in one form or another. In many ways it indicates the purity, the open-hearted energy, and the innocence of a child. Children are trusting and trust forms the basis of meaning for this card.
This is generally considered a positive card but there is a caveat. The caveat being that it is important to take time to be sure that you are looking where you're going. Trusting yourself to take a step into the unknown is one thing, but doing so without any thought whatsoever may be a mistake.
General: In general, this card would indicate new beginnings that have some deeper spiritual meaning. Spiritual in the sense that is meaningful in terms of your inner self.
Being religious and being spiritual are not the same thing. It does not mean religious here; you can be spiritual without being in the least bit religious. For example, starting a new relationship would be considered meaningful and hence spiritual. Buying a new pair of shoes would not!
The appearance of the Fool can depict an important fresh start in almost any aspect of your life. Life is cyclical and you will experience fresh starts many times as you grow spiritually. The Fool means another new journey is about to begin.
Work: Other people may not understand or support your new ideas and/or proposals, but if you know that you're right, press ahead, and try to help them to understand where you are coming from. Do make sure that you are right though and that you are being stubborn for all the right reasons.
The Fool can sometimes indicate finding a new position. This could be within your existing job and might even mean a promotion. If, however, you are not satisfied with your current lot it can mean that now is the time to look for a new job that suits you better.
It can also mean that the time could be right for you to go off on your own and start your own business. That's a scary prospect for most people but if it's something that you've been idly considering then the Fool means you should be giving it serious consideration.
Love: The meaning of The Fool in the context of love could indicate that you aren't ready for a commitment. At least not yet. Even though others may be pressing you for one now is not the time.
There is nothing wrong with having fun and indeed this card is a positive harbinger for your love life; lots of fun seems to be in the offing and this is what you want right now in an existing relationship.
If, on the other hand, you are looking for a new relationship and hopefully love then make sure you don't let your desire for fun let you overlook the real thing should it come your way now. When you're wrapped up in having fun it can be easy to overlook the possibilities in a new relationship. True love is not always instant so you need to make sure you're aware that it could be creeping up on you!
Finances: In terms of finances, the Fool is an extremely positive significator. It doesn't meant that you will win the lottery I'm afraid (it's not impossible of course, but not very likely!) but it does mean that one way or another you will see an increase in money.
Whether it's an inheritance, a new job with better money, a promotion, or even just a pay rise you can expect a windfall of some sort. That doesn't mean you should just sit back and take the day off while you wait! Trust yourself, work hard, and you will do better than you expect.
Perhaps more importantly the Fool lets you know that no matter what happens financially, you will be all right in the long run. You will come out on top.
Health: It's possible that you'll be slightly accident prone when the Fool is appearing; be present in the moment and don't take silly chances. It's amazing how many pitfalls can be avoided with a little common sense so don't get carried away and take avoidable risks.
Overall, though, when this card appears your health is very likely to be on the upswing. If you're having health problems, you are very likely to find the people and items you need to make headway toward a full recovery. Mind over matter can be very helpful; positive thought is important and should come fairly easily to you now.
Spirituality: When this card appears, you are likely to be in or nearing a period of experimentation. You may well have a desire to try out lots of different approaches to spirituality to see how they fit for you personally.
There is nothing wrong with this exploration of possibilities, just make sure you don't get too carried away in any one thing while you are "just shopping." There are many possibilities out there and you will find the one that is right for you.
If you are not yet exploring spiritual possibilities then this card can indicate a powerful need to gain a deeper knowledge of spirituality. Your friends and family may not understand where this is coming from. Regardless of their attitude you have to do what is best for you.
Card 3 - The Magician
Introduction: The Magician is about making higher and better use of all of one's power. Spiritual, emotional, and otherwise. This is another card that often signifies new beginnings and great expectations.
This is a very powerful, positive omen in a reading. This card reminds us that we have the power to make a difference, in our lives and in the greater world, if we simply make a point to try.
You should note that this is not magic in the sense that you need to do spell-work or anything of that nature. It's also not "magic" like a stage illusionist performs, which is the somewhat superficial appearance of wondrous feats.
This is actual transformation of the literal and figurative world in normal ways. You are not going to have it all handed to you on a plate, but you have the potential to have that plate and a lot of what's on it if you do the magic yourself.
The Magician is all about action. If you do nothing you'll get nothing. If you don't know what to do then just do something because anything is better than nothing. In other words if you don't try you won't get.
General: You may notice many synchronicities, which point towards deep, spiritual events taking place regardless of the importance of their superficial appearances. You should be finding that you have the knowledge, strength, and inspiration needed to meet your challenges. In general this is a very positive time for you.
It is important to note though that to make the very most of this time you will need to do your part. Even though the Magician is a very positive card it is all about potential.
Work: There will be an improvement in your work/career life. Particularly if your work is in a creative field this is a time when your suggestions and work will be met with appreciation and may lead to bigger and better things.
Bigger and better things are definitely a possibility. A promotion may be on the horizon but even if it isn't a pay rise might be. Whichever is the case this is a time to sound your own trumpet and ask. As the saying goes... "If you don't ask you don't get!"
If you are out of work or thinking about changing jobs this is an auspicious time to do so. Even if you think you've exhausted all the possibilities you haven't so if necessary go back and repeat all the steps you have already taken and try again.
Love: If you are in the market for a new romance, this is a time when you are likely to meet someone new. Right now someone out there somewhere is looking for you just as you are looking for them.
Whether they find you or not will depend on you. Don't sit at home expecting Mr/Miss Right to walk up your garden path and knock on the door because they probably won't. You need to be out there making yourself available to be found and this is an excellent time to do just that. Get out there and meet people.
If you're in a long-term relationship already then the relationship will very likely rise to new and deeper levels of commitment and enjoyment. Even if nothing very concrete seems to have changed when you think about it objectively your perception of it will.
Finances: Money should be on the upswing when this card appears even if no feasible way for this to happen is apparent at the time you do your reading. Someone or something will appear that will allow you to make more money, whether this is an idea, a chance to do some work on the side or even a new position. Have faith in yourself and your ability to succeed.
That doesn't mean you should jump at every opportunity that comes your way. If it sounds too good to be true then it probably is, but not automatically so. This card can sometimes manifest opportunities that that appear that way but are the real deal. Always do your homework.
Health: If you've been feeling ill, that will most likely end soon; this card signifies strength and/or the return of strength. If you do have some kind of ongoing health issue that hasn't gotten better, you may benefit greatly from undertaking some sort of additional alternative therapy such as nutritional counselling, massage, dietary restriction, and so forth.
Spirituality: This is an excellent time for you to undertake some form of spiritual study that you've thought about in the past but haven't had the opportunity to pursue. You would also benefit from discussion groups that are spiritual in origin.
A spiritual teacher may appear in your life now. This person will be an excellent mentor and will help you to have a new lease on life.
