I tried the 3 card spread for Situation ,Action,Outcome.My question pertained to relocation -”Wether i would relocate to a foreign land from India ? ”
After shuffling picked 3 cards from top.
1. 6 of Pentacles-Reversed
2. 4 of Wands -Reversed
3. The Hermit-Reversed
In the situation card 6 of pentacles (r)meant i would be giving more than the actual benefits accruing to me post relocation.
In the action situation 4 of wands (r) means possible relocation and a phase of transition in one’s life.
In the advice Hermit (r) means that i may be getting so spirtually inclined that maybe i am isolating myself.
So overall it means that it would be helpful to others if i relocate ,but need to take care of my needs to.But not very sure if the cards are indicating relocation.Any comments ?

Hi Aasheesh. Thanks for sharing your reading. I think you’re right on track. In addition, three out of three reversals to me would indicate a ‘no’ to relocating under present circumstances, or that there are a number of obstacles that stand in your way that need to be dealt with. The reversed Hermit, to me, is a bit like a sign to go back to the drawing board and think this one through at a deeper, perhaps more spiritual level. There’s something you’re missing that you need to be aware of at this deeper level.
