Honestly, I'm a bit confused; I mean, one would think that reversed cards meant the opposite, right? But the booklet says nothing on reversed cards and online resources say that opposite meanings are pretty much antiquated and that modern tarot readers take it on a situational basis and read the cards around it to fully understand the reading.
I mean, I got the star, reversed, of which different sources say different things. One said the meaning did not diminish, which the booklet (and the opposite reading due to placement method, I guess) said that it was the opposite, and that the "waters of the spirits" weren't flowing, which fit the reading and the question I asked in a decent manner.
Despite The Tower showing up, the ominous one was the Ten of Swords, with its macabre and backstabbing imagery. I'm not sure what it means and I need to ruminate on it, but I feel like I should be a bit more careful of who I confide in. #TrustIssues
Anyway, I'll keep my readers posted! (Yes, all three of you!)
I guess practice, in terms of reading the imagery and actual placement of the cards would do nothing but help. :)
