I wasn't kidding when I said to be specific, guys. Either ask a question for a three-card, or tell me you'd like a Celtic Cross. Keep in mind that the Crosses take a bit to do, especially because I don't know too much about your situations.
ZK gets a Celtic Cross, as she asked.
Present: Death. Don't freak out, it means rebirth and renewal more than anything. It sounds to me like you're currently getting over something.
Current Challenge: Four of Swords. This is a meditative card, something that represents a little seclusion and a lot of thought. It's a lot like
The Hermit, but less shut off. You might have to think something over pretty well.
Distant Past: Page of Swords. This is all about standing your ground when things begin to move around you, and being ready for action.
Recent Past: Page of Cups. This can represent a message, or maybe a message through a dream. Possibly even something through another divination? Whatever the case, you had someone tell you something important recently.
Best Outcome: Knight of Swords. All about the "Power of Action," the knight intends to destroy evil. This isn't quite
Justice, though, so...
Immediate Future: Queen of Wands. Brooding power of life and animation. She's depicted as the "mistress of feeling," which is interesting because your reading so far is dominated by Swords, the suit of thought and the mind.
Factors Affecting Situation: Three of Cups. Again, the Power of Friendship. Not sure how that could affect things situation-wise. Maybe your love for your friends is getting in the way of something?
Outside Influences: Three of Swords. Emotional pain, usually caused by hurtful words or negative thoughts. The symbolism of rain in the card is there to show us that we need both happiness and sadness to grow as people, so...
Hopes and Fears: Eight of Pentacles. Representative of production and routine. The man on the card is hammering out coins, quite literally "making money." Are you afraid of working for some reason? Or are you eager to earn some money?
Final Outcome: Page of Wands. This one's a little hard to read. They say it represents enterprise, but there's more to it than that. The image on the card is of a man sort of talking to a branchless tree (his "wand") while seemingly transferring it to an uncultivated area. If you're the wand, does that make you a pioneer of sorts? If you're the Page, are you helping someone to do something new?
Something if note: It's interesting that your reading was so dominated by Swords, and that the only Page you didn't draw was of Pentacles. Swords are a suit all about thought, whereas Pentacles are generally about wealth or personal gain in a physical (or sometimes spiritual) sense.
On the bright side, the card on the bottom of the deck, something I personally take to be the card farthest from the truth, is
The Devil. So hey, go you.
