What can you tell us about a possible Elucien relationship and a possible Elriel relationship?

The cards and I thank you for your questions!

A potential Elucien pairing: 2 of cups reversed, 9 of cups, 4 of swords

A potential Elriel pairing: 10 of swords, 2 of cups reversed, page of wands reversed

2 of cups reversed: reversed can mean there are challenges in a partnership, and it is difficult to agree. It can also signify some kind of power imbalance that leads to resentment or a loss of respect.

9 of cups: An abundance of joy and a fulfillment of wishes. All hard work will pay off in the end.

4 of swords: a sign that challenges may be ahead, but before they are dealt with, rejuvenation is required for both the spirit and mind. Mental and emotional clarity, as well as compassion, will help resolve situations.

10 of swords: an indication of betrayal and the end of a painful situation. The time of suffering is ending. It is time to let go, accept the end of things, and move on.

Page of wands reversed: an indication of something started and paused and has now become stuck or something that just can't get off the ground in the first place due to unforseen complications. A loss of interest. It could also signify someone being introduced as aggressive or an immature bully.

I don't know if you talked about this, what are your thoughts about Elain being Queen of Hel? I see this from the other ship of the fandom and I kind of thought its more of a reach?

Did you see the tarot about the books? Thoughts? I kind of thinks its leaning Elucien.

Post 1 (elucien potential): https://www.tumblr.com/starsreminisce/748554974609489920/what-can-you-tell-us-about-a-possible-elucien?source=share

Post 2 (Prediction for next book): https://www.tumblr.com/arcanareads/748833982511267840/can-the-cards-tell-us-what-to-expect-for-the?source=share

Hope you have a good day!!!

Post 1 definitely seems to lean Elucien and on Post 2, this: King of swords: someone who is comfortable in the role of a leader but is not power hungry. A sign that someone who is a trusted advisor may enter the situation or that you, yourself, are the reliable source of information that will benefit others -shouts Lucien to me though the rest seem like it could be applied to multiple other characters. However I'm not very knowledgeable in readings so I'm probably not the best person to give feedback. As far as Elain as a Queen of Hel I definitely don't see it. First, what is the point of her character living in a completely different realm? It's not like ending up in a different court, Hel is not supposed to be a place where the inhabits can roam to Prythian whenever it suits them. I also think her being a Queen of Hel completely erases what makes Elain Elain, what makes her special. Feyre mentioned she had a different sort of strength, that is is her loving and generous nature that sets her apart. That she chose to, regardless of the hardships of the world, remain kind. The author herself mentioned Elain as having a different sort of strength, that she's a quiet dreamer. A Queen of Hel might be a badass creature of course but she's not gentle, loving, kind, or a quiet dreamer.

Nesta as a Queen of Hel? Absolutely. But not Elain.

What’s the best way to shuffle a tarot deck?

It’s subjective to the reader! However, to give you some tips, here is how I shuffle my tarot deck, Feat. shitty pictures and gifs of me and my Wooden Tarot deck

Sorry about the weird stuff on my ungloved arm in advance. That’s just lipstick and eyeliner from makeup shopping today lmaoo

Shuffling your tarot deck can be a great way to bond with your deck! Sometimes, even when you’re not looking for a reading or a card pull, it’s just nice to sit down with your deck of choice and shuffle the cards around a bit. I find it comforting, personally. Maybe that’s because my stash of Magic the Gathering playing cards is a literal mountain on my dresser, threatening death via blunt force trauma at any moment, but... I love... cards...

Either way, when it comes to shuffling your tarot deck, first you want to consider if you’re going to take reverses into account, or not.

(In case you don’t know, Reverses are when the card appears upside-down instead of right-side-up when you flip the card. Often when a card is reversed, it alters the meaning of the card slightly, allowing for some more in-depth readings.)

If you’re going to be taking reverses into account, you’re probably going to want a way to flip some of the cards around, so you get a good mix of cards that are reversed and cards that are upright in your deck. This may take a few shuffles, but that’s alright!

After that? It’s what feels best for you!

However, I play a shitton of card games in my spare time, so let me show you how I shuffle my deck, and then give you some Geek Card Shuffling Tips

I pick my deck, and then lay out as many one card piles as I please. I usually end up doing anywhere from 5-8 piles.

When my piles are laid out, I continue picking one card from the top of the deck, laying it on a pile, and then moving to the next pile and distributing that way until the entire deck has been split between all piles.

Here’s where I get a little wonky with my shuffling. After they’re all in piles, I take one pile, split it in half.

Then, I spin one half so that the cards are upside-down.

After that, I take a huge chunk in my hand, leaving a card or two, so I can distribute the large portion of cards in chunks around the two cards I left in my hand.

Repeat this with the rest of the piles. Then, I combine the small piles into bigger piles (using the same process), until I finally have one tarot deck!

Pick as many cards as I need to off the top, and perform the reading!

Now, for some hot tips.

Some cards tumble out of your deck while you’re shuffling? Don’t put them back in! Some cards explode outward because they have something important to add to the reading. Keep them on the side, and continue shuffling!

Separating the cards into piles like these ensures that the cards are shuffled well. The most common form of shuffling that people know, however, is riffle shuffling (taking the deck into two piles, and combining them by taking the corners of each half into your thumb and riffling them together), but I don’t typically recommend this with tarot, as the cards are LARGE and will warp easily if you bend them too much.

Don’t feel like you have to start reading reverses the moment you jump into tarot! they’re not always necessary, and can complicate things. However, I began with reading reverses, and I like to think I turned out alright, so if you want the challenge? March forth!

All in all? Follow your gut, and you should be just fine.

Will Elain accept the mating bond with Lucien?

The cards and I thank you for your question!

This is a yes or no question, which is something I don't usually ask the cards, so I kinda did this reading twice. The first time, I did my usual shuffle, where I waited for the cards to fall on there own.

The second time, I did a split deck, where I hold the deck, ask the question, and pull the deck apart into two halves. The card facing me from the split can be an answer.

Will Elain accept the mating bond with Lucien: 8 of cups reversed, 6 of wands

Split deck version: 10 of cups

8 of cups reversed: reversed, this card indicates that on the surface you want to build upon your spiritual self and move beyond materialism but fear is stopping you from making a decision. As a result, you have become stagnant in your growth

6 of wands: this card acknowledges all your hard work. You will succeed in your endeavors and also earn the respect and admiration of others

10 of cups: this card implies feelings of peace, love, and fulfillment. A time of utmost joy. It can also imply a potentially lifelong love affair.

[arcanareads]

What will happen to Stolitz in the Apology Tour episode: king of swords sideways, 4 of pentacles sideways, page of swords sideways, six of pentacles sideways, the moon sideways

I've never had every card fall sideways before, so this is interesting. I might do another reading to try and get clearer answers.

Just a reminder, I interpret sideways cards as both the upright and reversed readings happening or one of them will happen, and there's too many variables/factors involved to give a clear answer.

King of swords sideways: upright, this card brings a clear and prudent vision of success to a situation. Someone may enter as a trusted advisor or you, yourself might be the source of reliable information that will benefit others

Reversed, this card represents someone who is aggressive, greedy, and manipulative. Someone who is nothing more than a bully

Four of pentacles sideways: upright this card denotes an inability to feel secure despite accumulating great wealth. A warning that obsessing over what you may lose will prevent you from experiencing joy from what you already have

Reversed this card suggests a fear of poverty that has created an inability to let go and enjoy the financial resources available to you

Page of swords sideways: upright this card encourages you to throw caution to the wind because now is the time to take action. A sign of movement, energy, and communication, all of which are necessary for starting a new adventure

Reversed this card represents someone who is all talk with no real experience to back it up. This card can also be a warning about jumping into things too quickly without the proper research, which will only result in wasted energy

Six of pentacles sideways: upright this card denotes a time of giving and receiving with strings attached

Reversed this card signals that the time of giving and taking has become unbalanced. You may be taking advantage of someone, or you could be the one taking advantage

The moon sideways: upright this card brings to light our insecurities and asks what you are concealing. This card encourages you to recognize and accept all parts of yourself, even the parts you consider to be weaknesses because every part is essential

Reversed this card signals a time where you release yourself from the bondage of fear and see yourself in a brighter, more positive light. It can also suggest a time of heightened psychic abilities

[arcanareads]

What can you tell us about a possible Gwynriel relationship?

The cards and I thank you for your question!

A potential Gwynriel relationship: 4 of wands, 7 of wands, 10 of cups.

4 of wands: this cards implies a time of peace and harmony, especially where home and family is involved. Also a possible prediction of a joyous occasion like a wedding or birth. This card encourages you to connect with those who bring joy and happiness into your life.

7 of wands: this card serves as a reminder that even though you're successful and content, don't become complacent because there will be others who believe your good fortune should be their own. A reminder to stay self-confident and have courage when facing challenges.

10 of cups: this card implies feelings of peace, love and fulfillment. A time of utmost joy and a possible sign of a lifelong love affair

[arcanareads]

What will we see from Penelope and Colin's relationship in part 2 of season 3: kight of swords, 3 of swords sideways

Sideways cards are interesting. The way I interpret them is that it means both the upright and reversed of that card will happen or that one of them will happen, and there are too many contributing factors/possible futures for the cards to give a clear answer. So, I will give both the upright and reversed readings.

Kight of swords: this cards brings youthful, enthusiastic energy to a job, which brings with it the inspiration to create a pathway to success. This card could indicate a project you are excited about. There is unstoppable energy swirling around you. This card symbolizes high potential and offers you the strength to complete a project but also brings the warning not to cut corners or make hasty decisions

Three of swords sideways: upright, this cards represents a time of sadness and loss. However, without sadness and loss, we would never know happiness or appreciate any of the good things in life. There is no avoiding the sadness this card brings, but there is a valuable lesson to be found that is essential for growth. This card encourages you to take steps and learn how to heal your heart and soul

Reversed signals that much time has gone by and you are finding it difficult to let go of a painful situation. You may be holding onto an old grudge. Take stock of your feelings and ask yourself which emotions are preventing you from living or loving

[arcanareads]

Once again, I've decided to put off watching Helluva Boss because from the vague spoilers I've seen, it ends in pain, and I'm not doing that to myself until there's another episode to immediately follow.

I did just finish a Stolitz reading for this episode, though. You'll have to tell me how accurate it is.

[arcanareads]

Let me know if you want one of these answered sooner rather than later

How does Azriel currently see Elain and Gwyn? How will he see them in the future? How does Azriel currently see himself, and how will he see himself in the future? What would canon Elriel look like? What about canon Gwynriel?

The cards and I thank you for your questions!

Since there are so many sideways cards, I want to remind you that the way I interpret them is that either both the upright and reversed are the answer, or only one is and there are just too many possibilities/variables to get a clear response.

Tilted cards, I interpret the same as sideways cards. However, the favored direction is the most likely outcome.

How does Azriel currently see Elain: strength sideways

How will he see her in the future: ace of wands sideways
