I’ve noticed nearly all who contact me ask me about timing.  This is a controversial subject for many reasons.  First, the spirit/universe, has been in existence always, never ceasing.  This in turn, means that our spirits have always existed as well, and so a time frame for a human, in this current lifetime, is basically meaningless when compared to the past and future years of existence that we have and will live. We are asking a question that to the universe translates to ‘during what part of the blink of an eye’ of the entire existence of the universe, will “X” occur?’

Because of this, When I answer questions regarding timing, I rely on the tarot and always state a disclaimer.   The tarot speaks in symbols and not in specifics.  It was initially, and still is, meant to empower you to create a better life for yourself.  However, readers over the centuries have noted certain patterns, similar to those seen in astrology, that occur within the cards and passed this information on to the following generations. They are not 100% accurate and do not promise to be.

Keep in mind, the cards, just like  a person(or any entity in the universe), can be fickle and behave like a human, especially when ‘tested’ or someone ‘demands’ too much from them.  Or sometimes the cards just don’t want to answer because it is the tactful thing to do!

The timing is as follows:

Wands = Summer and/or the Fire Signs of Zodiac(Aries – April, Sagitarius – December, Leo -August).
Swords = Winter and/or the Air Signs(Libra, Gemini and Aquarius).
Pentacles = Fall/Autumn and/or the Earth Signs(Capricorn, Taurus and Virgo).
Cups = Spring and/or Water Signs(Pisces, Cancer and Scorpio).

The major arcana generally corresponds to an event happening in years/months or sometimes during the time of the zodiac sign that corresponds to the card.

The minor arcana generally relate to shorter time frames. The court cards relate to months, pip cards to days.

An example:

For example the Moon card is governed by Cancer so the event may occur years from now, or sometime during the time of Cancer, or years from now during the time of Cancer, or during a time when people value the ideals emulated by Cancers. It goes on and on!

This subject could go on and on as well incorporating even more possible time frames such as ‘the age of Aquarius’ which is associated with SEVERAL YEARS, the suit of pentacles which can certainly describe the Victorian era which also spanned several years, and more!! 🙂

So…. when you ask a tarot reader about a time frame, just remember that is a very loaded question, especially when it is the universe, through the cards, that is answering the question! 🙂

Also, I don’t like time frames because that implies limitation. I like to think we are all in charge of our own destiny and WE choose when something will happen!

I wish you well and will update soon!
