Hi Charlie, i am Sam and looking forward to read for you.

May i have your questions please?

Hi Sam,

I would like to go on a trip, but I don't know where to go or what to do. So I guess I'm interested in knowing if I should travel locally (c. 2 hours of travel time), regionally (c. 5 hours of travel time), or a BIG trip. Additionally, I'd be interested in whether or not you get any ideas about the kind of place I should go or else, maybe, what I should be looking to have happen during the trip.

Please let me know if you need any extra information or want help in focusing the question.

Thanks.

Hi Charlie,

May i know are you travelling alone, with family, partner or friends? Which country that you are staying now?

Need the above informations for my focusation.

With my wife and 2-year old daughter. We live in the United States.

Hi Charlie, this is the cards that i pulled for your questions. I am using Fantasy/Miracle tarot in this reading. I am practising asia interpretations, it might slightly vary with english reading.

Local trip - 8 of wands
It seems like you had been thinking to go for a vacation for quite sometime, and now it's time to make it happen. 8 of wands here suggesting you to go for a short trip for the time being, you can decide the destination anytime from now. A short vacation can give you a break, a good opportunity to recharge. Wands also a fire element, you may look for the destination has fire sign in all aspects, or the weather is warmer, sun is brighter or travel to east direction.

Regional trip - 8 of cups
If you already have a destination in mind for a regional trip. It may turn up abit under expectations. It will slightly affect your trip with your family. Cups is water element, it can say there is a cooling, water, windy destination. Water also involve of emotion as well. To go for a trip happily is more important than any other things.

Big trip - Tower
It is quite risky and stress to travel far with your small daughter. The long distance travelling will easily cause sickness while we are too tired. This is a strong sign for negative points or decline statement, which i don't recommend you to go for it. Safety & health is more important than any other things.

Ideas of places - 5 of cups rx
You may look for a destination that you and your wife may have romantic memories or any destination that you two would like to go. I believe you two will discuss about this before. Or either a destination that you feel freedom to do many things as you can. It will be an ideal destination to go. Seems to me that a romantic destination is a better choice here, as you two will have better quality time, and to have some sweet moments together and be a good memories in future.

What may happen - Ace of wands
To be more socialise and explore to anything interesting and fun, you may have opportunity to enhance your network while mixing with new people, crossing the cultures etc. It will give you some new perspective. People & socialise is the key for the trip. What I look at it is an excitement, passion, and fun experience.

Hope it can bring you some ideas. I am very glad to have an opportunity to read for you, and if you would like to give me feedback, I will be appreciate it much

Thanks, Sam, for the reading. Your advice was very clear and made a lot of sense. I thought the way that you incorporated the suits' elements into the reading was very interesting.

Given everything that you were saying about warmth and water, it sounds like I should be going to the beach or maybe into a desert resort with a big fancy pool. You also seemed to favor taking a more local trip. I live in Southern California, so those destinations would, in fact, be the local trip. I also thought it was interesting that there were no swords or coins/pentacles. I think that no swords support what you said about focusing on fun, socializing, etc. In this context, I think no swords means to stay away from the museums and educational places. Do you think that there is a meaning in the fact that there are no coins? I wonder if this advice is to not care about how much I spend.

One thing I didn't understand was about the 5 of Cups. You said it was Rx, but the picture shows it upright. Which is correct? I have to admit that I'm unclear how 5 of Cups Rx connects to romance but I don't usually use reversals.

Thanks again.

Hi Charlie, thanks alot for your feedback. Yes, the card readings are incline towards local trip, beach, desert resort, theme park resort, hot spring and spa resort are more suitable for your upcoming trip.

When there were more cup cards mean this trip is meant for rejuvenating yourself in more natural relaxing mode. Like dipping in pool with a nice cocktail, walking at the beach or lake with your family. Watching any water dolphin shows in water theme park etc. You can also go for fishing if it interest you. It's an element that put your emotional relax and satisfaction as priority. It's also something to promote your family bonding. From here i did pick up most of the time, you are abit serious and theoritical, also a facts person. This cups are hinting you to let your feeling lead you for this trip. Let your analytical brain take a good rest

No swords and pentacles, i will suggest you to exclude museums or educational stuff. Either it's gonna turn up that you can't absorb the information during those tour, or it's going to put your both important ladies in your life to a boring state since this trip is also promoting family bonding, let's focus on emotional fulfillment

When no pentacles appear also mean that you have sufficient enough power to spend for this trip. Therefore you can spend more generously.

5 of cups is the rx card, i put it as upright for easy reading. Sorry for the confusion. 5 of cups in this deck is a card of seperation, faded of love. When it rx, it's a restoration or refresh of love, creating romantic memories. So i think it's a good trip for you.

Please do share with me on your feedback or further discussion if you need. I am happy to reason it
