Could anyone shed some light on this tarot reading. I did a relationship spread the

cards I pulled were: 1st card-Knight of Cups, 2nd card- The Fool(reversed)

3rd card-Ten of Pentacles, 4th card-The World(reversed), 5th card-Nine of Swords,

6th card-The Sun 7th card-Eight of Cups. The question that I asked was is someone(I'm

interested in) involved with someone else?

    Vermillion, what did each position represent when you did the spread? Was it a free-style spread, or did the placements have meaning? It makes a difference because a certain card may represent something on his side or your side. When I see the 8 of Cups in relationship spreads as the outcome, it usually shows disappointment for the querent and realizing that they should move on. But if it's something to do with the quiested, maybe he has some disappointment in relationships that he's dealing with or will.

    P.S. I love the artwork on your profile, esp. the Dune pictures!

    I agree with Teresa. It would be helpful to know what spread you used or if not, what the meaning of each position was in the spread you used.

    However, I do notice the 9 of Swords there suggesting lots of sleepless nights, anxiety and worrying. The problem with that card is that sometimes the problem is all in your head but you end up 'making it happen' by worrying about it so much.

      I used the relationship spread. First card drawn(how I see myself) 2nd card-how I see

      my partner, 3rd card-how I feel about my partner, 4th card-what stands between you and

      partner, 5th card-how your partner sees you 6th card- what your partner feels about you,

      7th card- challenge of the relationship. I hope that helps. Thanx to you both Paul and

      Teresa : )

        Thanks for getting back.
        I'm a little confused by this. Firstly, I didn't realise there was THE relationship spread, I think there are many relationship spreads, but that's besides the point. What I don't understand is why you used a relationship spread. Your question wasn't what you would be like in a relationship, but whether or not the person is involved with someone else. Whether the person is involved with someone else isn't related to how you see your partner, or what your partner feels about you etc etc because this person ISN'T your partner.
        It was always my understanding that relatinoship spreads are used in circumstances where two people are in a relationshp or about to be or could be. That's not the case with your question which was "Is this person involved with someone else".
        I hope that makes sense!

        Because of that, there is a conflict of interest, you're not using hte correc tool (spread) to try and bring about your result (the answer to your question) and because of that the spread you HAVE used is likely to be coloured by the fact that you've mis-used the spread.

        Perhaps try another spread, even a three card one if you're not comfortable going for a 'bigger' one or if you're really up for it go for a Celtic cross or one of your own devising, but make sure to know what each position should mean before doing it.

        If we DO use your spread, the only ones that are relevant are the fourth and seventh card, particularly the seventh which connotates the need to move on and get over a past relationship, but of course this could be a colouring of the fact that you're mis-using the spread and could be colouring your 'hopes' that his person will move on in a relationship or could even be talking about YOU needing to move on from this person. Hard to know.

        Sorry that's not more help.

          Thanx Paul I totally get what you're saying. My amateur thinking was seeing the

          relationship spread as interaction between two people business or romantic. Not

          necessarily "together,together". I'll def do the spreads you suggested.

            it's not uncommon, your question relates to relationships after all!

            My advice would be for Celtic cross or similar as they work quite well for questions like this!
