Karmic Spread Reading Interpretations
339
7 GOVERNED BY THE CHARIOT: PHYSICAL RESOURCES, MEANS TO ACHIEVE
UPRIGHT: You have someone—a family member, a partner, an angel—that you can fall back on.
Being part of a family business, or an extended family working together, fills this bill nicely.
INVERTED: At one extreme, this suggests that the aforementioned may have been your safety net,
but that it is not as strong for you at this time. At the other extreme, there may be too much support
that you have relied on too heavily for your own independent development.
8 GOVERNED BY STRENGTH: EMOTIONAL RESOURCES, ENERGY
UPRIGHT: This king personifies your strength, and whether this is your own character or that of
another, you are fortunate that your emotions are shored up with responsibility and pragmatic
interdependence. The family you have, the friends you make along the way, should be with you to
the end. INVERTED: At one extreme, you have been able to lean too heavily on this king for your
physical and material needs, and it will only slow your independent growth in the Emotional Plane.
At the other extreme, you feel less than complete because this piece is missing or not functioning as
it should be. This can be disappointed love.
9 GOVERNED BY THE HERMIT: BELIEF SYSTEM; BASIS FOR DECISIONS
UPRIGHT: You could write the handbook for fatherhood, at the least the part about bringing home
the bacon and paying for the kids to go to college. This is acceptance of responsibility; the buck
stops as well as starts here. And it is the thinking rooted in provision of safety and security from
which the principles of sound government and organized societies arise. INVERTED: At one extreme,
as with any inverted Court card in this position, this can suggest a dependence on another
person’s philosophy rather than having developed your own. At another extreme, this can be a
rather narrow interpretation of authority—right or wrong...do as I say.
10 GOVERNED BY THE WHEEL OF FORTUNE: CENTRAL MESSAGE, THEME OF READING
UPRIGHT: Think well on this card for he is coming to you in one guise or another. For there is
order to be put in your physical/material house, to take charge and make things right. More leadership
and control is needed here. INVERTED: Of course, you need to heed the King of Pentacles for
your own benefit, but there are others who depend on you to take hold and take charge, and to
produce.
11 GOVERNED BY JUSTICE: STATE/CONTENT OF MIND
UPRIGHT: The mind is on the king. He may represent a plan underway to assume responsibility,
take charge, or he may be the key player in the present game underfoot. INVERTED: You may think
adversely about this king, or he about you. As an aspect of yourself, you may be thinking of getting
out from under a responsibility.
12 GOVERNED BY THE HANGED MAN: STATE OF EMOTIONS, SUBCONSCIOUS
UPRIGHT: The heart is on the king. He may be an object of your affection, or the centerpiece of a
creative project underway. Your heart is accepting a great amount of responsibility. INVERTED:
Your heart may be involved with this king, but rather not be. Or the opposite, this can be the symbol
of your heart’s sadness over this person.
13 GOVERNED BY DEATH: PHYSICAL SITUATION, HARD REALITY
UPRIGHT: You are very much in control, centered in your affairs with an eye on all the details. The
lord of the manor is in, and he is in his throne room. This suggests that things are much to your
liking and for all the duties and work involved, being king is nice at the moment. INVERTED: The
king may be thrown for a loop. But it appears to be more personal than directed at your holdings or
family, your responsibilities. Other possibilities are the extremes of either having taken on too
much responsibility for the moment, or not enough.
