Chris Lilly's Blog # 3
In all transparency, I'm still experimenting with how these readings are worded and structured. Below is how these were presented to the members of the Flow Your Mojo Writing Community and since I'm opening this up to the writers of the world, you need to know the intention behind how these readings work, along with some minor housekeeping for those who don't know me:
These are not personal energetic collective readings. These are aimed toward creative writers, screenwriters, and fiction authors and their writing journeys. If you aren't a writer and find the message useful, supercool! I'm not going to take that away from you. I'm just being honest with the intention I used when I pulled the cards.
You have free will to accept and apply the message or completely ignore it.
You are allowed to see something different in the cards than me.
Sometimes the cards don’t make sense at first, so let them sit for a bit and see if anything resonates later.
Reversed cards could be blocked, delayed, healing, or internal energy.
Please comment on how/if this resonates with you and let me know if there is anything I can do better.
Please share this with anyone you feel might find this useful.
If you want a free one-card reading for your writing project, instructions on how to get that are below.
In the words of another popular tarot reader, MadamAdam, "If this reading came across your feed then it's probably for you; let' do it."

First off, we have two Major Arcana Cards, so that means the energy of this week is going to be impactful. Keep in mind that we're also dealing with a full moon today, so that is something you could add to this energetic reading.
On the Outside: The Magician
Personally, I see the Magician as the Lucy Ricardo card. In the TV series, I Love Lucy, Lucy Ricardo was Ricky Ricardo's wife. Ricky was in show business and a major plot point throughout the show was how much Lucy wanted to be in show business and how Ricky wouldn't let her. Well, every week, someone told Lucy no to something that she wanted to do and she came up with a plan to prove them wrong, and comedy ensued.
Lucy put her mind to whatever it was that she wanted and she used her resources to prove her point. So going into this week, maybe it might be a good idea to look at what you can do, instead of what you can't...

On the Inside: The Wheel of Fortune Reversed
The Wheel of Fortune usually indicates that things are working in your favor. Sometimes it indicates good luck. With these readings, we're dealing with creative writing so this card probably means something more to the effect of the movement of a project or your creativity. Since it's reversed, remember we've got blocked, delayed, healing or intertnal energy, it does seem like things are moving a little slower right now, maybe not as lucky, not as creative, maybe...

Putting Them Together:
Traditionally, I'd say this reading is most likely telling you to work through your current block or scene or hump before moving on with the project, maybe look at whatever you're working on from a different angle. Might also be an opportunity to take a break. You're still the Magician, but maybe your mind needs a break from the current piece that you're working on. (More insights later)
Writing/Journal Prompt (It's later):
Though, something else to keep in mind though is that we are using the Before Tarot this week. In 1910 the traditional Rider-Waite-Smith deck was drawn. Last week, we used the After Tarot where the images depicted the moment that happens right after the 1910 deck. This week it's the moment before, so...
With the Magician card consider tour process of what it's like to bring all of your elements or resources together. where did you get them? How do you get them? Who and where did you learn them from? Do the resources you've gathered work for your current project? Is something missing? and so on and so forth.
With the Wheel, I'd ponder what happened to get you to this blocked space. What happened before you got blocked? Did someone say something insulting to you? Dis you get negative feedback?
Write all this down and meditate over it. You might just break through why you're blocked.
Extra Insights:
Numbers: 1, 0
Colors: Yellow, Red, maybe Orange
Major Arcana Message: 0 + 1 = 1, Magician, which we discussed above.
