Really, asking about love is one of the most common questions I get, and the cards are so accurate when it comes to feelings.
I did a reading a while ago (I never give real times or names, to protect your privacy, but I do give the real cards) and the woman drew -
Wheel of Fortune / Queen of Cups / 6 of Swords / Ace of Cups
So there's a journey here. She's spinning right now, the wheel is moving, it could stop anywhere, but at least it's change. She's not stagnating. There is a warning about the Queen of Cups, who can sometimes get lost in her own dreams/ desires and not look around clearly enough. And then there is the sadness of the 6 of swords, a moving on with sorrow. No one wants these cards! But all this difficulty leads to the Ace of Cups, the card she really does want, a yes to love, a yes to emotional intimacy.
So the message for her was, she needs to go on this journey, she needs to let go of some of her dreams/ fantasies, she needs to let go of her past relationship and really let herself move on. I tell people that the 6 of swords is a moving on with sorrow, but at least it's not being stuck with sorrow! And then, and only then, once this hard work is done, does she get what she really wants.
People sometimes get upset with this kind of news - they want what they want, but they don't want to do the hard work to get it. And then it won't happen. The cards and karma are relentless like that. And she looked into my kind tired eyes and saw that there was no escaping the work of letting go of the Queen of Cups and the 6 of swords, but it would be worth it. And she sighed and agreed.
(These disney tarot cards are cute, but I wouldn't read with them, they didn't feel serious/nuanced enough. Though I did like Ariel as Queen of Cups, a girl willing to give up her voice in order to get her legs, is a girl who needs to look at the costs of her dreams!)
