Tarot reading has worried me

I have used this tarot reader several times over a few years and he has generally been accurate- specific dates and predictions have been correct eg redundancy,

This time he has predicted I may lose my job this May, a bullying manager is involved and a blonde woman helps him. This is because he got the fallen tower, 10 of swords and five of pentacles cards. The manager will say I'm underperforming etc

I have googled these cards and they aren't good- meant to be the worst in the whole lot.

I do have a bullying manager, the HR person is a blonde woman and I'm still on probation. It is also a step up and whilst I'm capable, I need training and he isn't supportive.

I don't want to lose a job after 6 months when it is a step up.

How can I stop worrying?

You let your life be governed by tarot card readings ? you really need to take yourself in hand and stop pursuing mumbo jumbo.

This, 100%.

Have you thought that losing your job might lead to new opportunities? This could be something really beneficial to you. Looking up the cards on Google is never a good thing - the cards need to be read in conjunction with other cards in the reading, and where in the reading they are. If you have used this reader before, then you must trust him. Go with the flow and trust that all will be well.

It is critical situation that is happen with you. Sometime it is goes against our expectation because their confidence is higher than you. So you have to wait till their mood change but you have to hard work to overcome

How does it work then Chestnut?

Reading this thread, there are so many people posting who say they know for sure that it's all rubbish. I'm afraid nobody knows anything for sure!
There are a lot of charlatans around - of course there are, and nobody would deny that - but there are also many things we don't understand. So in fact no-one can actually claim they know this is all nonsense, they can only believe it is nonsense, just as someone else can believe there is some truth there somewhere.
Who actually understands all there is in heaven and earth?

With all due respect - tosh.
Dismiss this for the rubbish it is and ignore it.

Tarot readers are pretty much people readers and pick up on signals people give... nothing is ‘written’ as such... we create our own destiny really...

Surely the point is that many people do look for guidance outside themselves. In the stars, lucky totems prayer etc. They need reassurance and support because their not trusting in their own wise hearts to guide them. Ineedamum Breathe deeply put you hands on your beautiful wise heart and listen. You do know what’s best for you in all situations listen and Trust - in yourself.

This thread was started a year ago. Seeing it resuscitated, my immediate thought was exactly the same as my reaction to the title then, "Well, stop reading it then!"

I’m one of the school that believes it is absolute garbage and dangerous garbage at that because people get hooked on this nonsense. When I was a young uni student we used to have seances until some of the stuff started to scare us. The mind can do strange things and I actually believe all this stuff is wrong.

Esspee - thank you, no worries! smile
I do wish that op would come back!
I feel all James Randi (blushthat really hasn't come out as expected!grin)

Esspee Sun 08-Nov-20 07:41:35

FannyCornforth No, not directed at you. I was astounded at how many responses confirmed that there are still people who believe this twaddle. Sorry I didn't make that clear.

FannyCornforth Sat 07-Nov-20 08:29:58

Esspee I don't know if the rolling eyes are directed at me or OP;
I posted because I thought that the timings were interesting.

Esspee Sat 07-Nov-20 08:14:25

Do people still believe this nonsense.
? They really do walk among us. ?

Hello ineedamum
I notice that you started this thread at the start of 2020, about a tarot reader who predicted that you would lose your job in May 2020.

(A previous poster revived the thread last night.)

Considering the extraordinary events of this year, I'm extremely intrigued to hear if the tarot reader's prediction came about. Did he 'predict' anything else?

I hope that you are well, ineedamum, and that your job was indeed secure.
Thank you in advance.flowers

Sending you a hug, ineedamum,. Tarot is entertainment. Nothing else. Believe in your self. And work on your self esteem. You can be your own mother, if you want to be. Tell yourself all the wonderful things you suspect a mother might say to you. I had a mother and father, but I learnt to parent myself. Too long a story... for here. Take care of yourself and the rest will follow. Write down all the things you want to achieve. And keep it for looking at when you have achieved it. Good luck

Thanks. The manager by his own admission is controlling, domineering, pedantic and unpleasant. I would also say he loves the power of being a manager, undermines me and a bully. (Other people say worse!).

I'm keeping notes, but my worry is that its a wonderful opportunity and I have learned things- but want to stay a year minimum for my CV. I suppose if the worst were to happen, I could do temporary work in my previous easier title, but I really want to stay at this level.

I don't believe it is me, think hes holding me back!

The trouble with trying to predict the future is that it can end up as a self fulfilling prophesy in that because of your worrying, you actually can make the situation happen yourself as a result of your own reactions to the reading.

Instead of focussing on the future, I recommend focussing on the 'now' and live in the now to your best ability without any worrying about the future involved.

No-one knows what's in each of our futures but the one thing we CAN do is take control right NOW and let it take us where it will take us. I always say 'Make the most of every day; do your best in every way'. What more can you do?

And then smile, knowing that you are on the best path you can be, regardless of what the future may hold.

The manager is undermining me and not giving me sufficient support. Hes also a bully and he admits to being controlling, domineering, prednatic and unpleasant and aggressive.

The unpleasantness I can tolerate, but its a great opportunity and I want to learn.

I'm taking notes of his behaviour but its frustrating and stressful when i'm in work. If I stop typing for 10 seconds- hes asking if there's a problem!

Thank goodness its Friday tomorrow

Do you consider where fortune telling is bad, divination is good ?

YorkieGothGirl Tue 04-Feb-20 14:21:17

I dumped astrology nearly 30 years ago. Haven't had a reading, a chart compiled or read a horoscope in all that time, never will again. Good to be free of that stuff.
