<strong>Karmic</strong> Spread Reading Interpretations<br />

157<br />

all of God’s children are treated well. INVERTED: At one extreme is the nirvana ideal that sounds<br />

good but proves to be a nightmare in disguise as heaven. At the other extreme is a distorted preference<br />

<strong>for</strong> inequality, <strong>for</strong> favoritism <strong>and</strong> advantage, the card player who prefers a stacked deck to the<br />

challenge of having to play against equal odds <strong>and</strong> winning by sheer ability.<br />

7 GOVERNED BY THE CHARIOT: PHYSICAL RESOURCES; MEANS TO ACHIEVE<br />

UPRIGHT: The balance you have achieved in your Material Plane is a marvel to behold. Balance,<br />

as much as sheer quantity <strong>and</strong> mass, is fundamental to a good foundation. Of course your ability to<br />

judge situations <strong>and</strong> make correct decisions in business matters has not hurt. INVERTED: Your<br />

resources, while they may add up on paper, may not be reliable when you need them. You have even<br />

distorted them to yourself so that you probably don’t know where you really st<strong>and</strong>.<br />

8 GOVERNED BY STRENGTH: EMOTIONAL RESOURCES, ENERGY<br />

UPRIGHT: The even-h<strong>and</strong>edness with which you have approached your relationships <strong>and</strong> people<br />

in general has given you a network on which you can depend. Objectivity in the Emotional Plane<br />

can multiply energy. INVERTED: At one extreme, you have treated everyone so much the same that<br />

those who feel they have a closer relationship <strong>and</strong> claim on your affections may feel slighted, even<br />

betrayed. At the other extreme, you have a varied scale of treatment, even including mistreatment<br />

<strong>and</strong> may have generated some resentment, even enemies.<br />

9 GOVERNED BY THE HERMIT: BELIEF SYSTEM; BASIS FOR DECISIONS<br />

UPRIGHT: Your beliefs are very secular in origin <strong>and</strong> character, maybe even a model similar to<br />

that of Socrates. In your list of observances we might find law <strong>and</strong> order, a Bill of Rights, humanism/<br />

humanitarianism, <strong>and</strong> a golden rule of some sorts, but most likely not religion. INVERTED: Distortions<br />

here can include an extreme in which order <strong>and</strong> equality are sought after within a given group<br />

but not extended to another, as in one race to another, one nationality to another, one sex to another,<br />

or of humans to their fellow occupants of earth (animals, plants, etc.). In another extreme, the belief<br />

is in hierarchies rather than equalities with attendant rights <strong>and</strong> privileges.<br />

10 GOVERNED BY THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE: CENTRAL MESSAGE, THEME OF READING<br />

UPRIGHT: This is as the sword of Gabriel <strong>and</strong> the chakras are to be aligned <strong>for</strong> the work ahead.<br />

Here in the <strong>Tarot</strong> you see the necessary alignment of the Spiritual, Mental, Emotional, <strong>and</strong> Physical<br />

Planes. Hurry <strong>and</strong> get your seat on the correct side of the hall <strong>for</strong> the procession is about to begin.<br />

INVERTED: You must be more opinionated, self-directed, <strong>and</strong> expressive. Others need you to be<br />

centered <strong>and</strong> assertive <strong>and</strong> cannot wait as long as you think you can.<br />

11 GOVERNED BY JUSTICE: STATE/CONTENT OF MIND<br />

UPRIGHT: Here is an opening of the throat chakra, with an attendant increase in communicative<br />

abilities. Your mind is centered, clear, decisive, <strong>and</strong> responsible, as it works to resolve a host of<br />

dualities. There is a Zen presence of mind. INVERTED: At one extreme, the opening can be too<br />

great <strong>and</strong> should he tempered. At the other extreme, there is closure, poor communications, cloudiness<br />

<strong>and</strong> indecisiveness. Very little is being resolved, certainly no major dualities.<br />

12 GOVERNED BY THE HANGED MAN: STATE OF EMOTIONS, SUBCONSCIOUS<br />

UPRIGHT: The heart’s gut reactions are on target; trust your instincts here. The heart has noble<br />

concerns about egalitarian issues. Justice must prevail. INVERTED: The heart’s conclusions may<br />

be so correct as to be painful or to bring about a great reaction/change. Justice is prevailing but at a<br />

painful cost to this heart. At another extreme, there is distortion here with much inaccurate noise<br />

clouding the facts of the situation. Injustice is the hour of the day.<br />

13 GOVERNED BY DEATH: PHYSICAL SITUATION, HARD REALITY<br />

UPRIGHT: Physical situation balanced, under control. Peace. Fairness all the way around. Favorable<br />

legal decision in your Material Plane. INVERTED: Time <strong>for</strong> resolution of differences in the<br />

Physical Plane. At an extreme, a time of war. At another extreme is the more difficult problem to<br />

see, that of too much justice, too much control, too much leveling out, too much stasis. Legal<br />

decision unfavorable. Stop, take a breath, <strong>and</strong> get back on track.
