This appalls some tarot readers I know as they do not allow anyone else to touch their deck, but it's worked for me.
Let's try it for the heck of it. The only thing I will tell you is I'm female and that's all. I am thinking of a question - you pull out the cards I'm thinking of.

Were you involved in a drunk driving accident by any chance? Maybe someone with more than one offense? And/ or are you suing someone?

First card: Temperance, reversed.(obvious meaning)
Second card: Six of wands: Victory
Third card: Chariot reversed. Being pulled in two directions or something to do with transportation.
Fourth card: King of swords (lawyer?)
Fifth card: Eight of wands reversed.(something is taking too long)
Sixth card: Prince of swords.
Seventh card: The World reversed (someone's failure to learn a lesson in conjunction with card three)
Eighth card: Prince of Pentacles reversed. (outside influences)
Ninth card:Strength reversed ( Hopes and fears), so it doesn't really matter that it's upside down.
Final outcome: Six of Pentacles.

Whatever the question was, the cards say you will ultimately triumph, and there's money involved.

We pulled several major acana cards here, so if I were reading your spread in a room with you, I's say your questions wasn't any garden variety "How's my day gonna go" question.

I put little stock in long distance readings, but hey, It's Halloween ! Have a happy one.

You actually read something that happened to me back in February regarding my car. There was an accident, the car dealer screwed me and I saw an attorney to settle or sue, it took forever, but I got my money. The IRS held my check from January to April which was extremely long.

Being pulled in two directions - I couldn't decide whether to take the car back or have them pay me to repair it.

While you were reading the cards I was out in the garage cleaning and vacuuming my car, so it probably clouded the question.

This is not to say something else might happen - I'm a disaster and they should just set up orange cones around me.

If there is anyone who is interested in bettering their tarot skills or wants to learn from the beginning?
I could use your 'help'. I'm testing and doing 'dry runs' of the workshops I have been developing.
I have workshops on making spreads, on understanding the Celtic cross spread, understanding the court cards and more....
this is not a self-promotion...i'm not going to ask anyone for money (if anything, I am giving it away) and I will discuss things about tarot in this forum for those who ask.

Amazing, one of my favorite songs! I like the Revelations deck myself. So colorful. They are actually works of art, I believe on display in San Francisco.

Where in SF? I would take a trip down there to see the original art.
I have the Revelations deck and love to read with it. It is a very 'comforting' deck.

That is so funny!! Gave me a good laugh!
Though I've never used them much, I had the Sacred Rose deck about 20 years ago but lost it. I really liked it. Now I have Colette Baron-Reid's Enchanted Map Oracle Cards. I don't like conventional spreads, so these are nice to have around.

I must have my memory wrong. I looked in my revelations tarot companion book and it says "The art featured in revelations tarot will be featured in local galleries an on his (Zach Wong - author) website." I have no idea where I came up with SF, probably just wanting to go there (sorry) Zach Wong lives in Australia . . .

If you like non-traditional decks, there is one called Infinite tarot- but it does not follow the true formula of tarot. It does not have majors and minors, but does have 78 (actually maybe 80) cards and 4 suits. It is a wonderful deck.
