Card of the Day. Zigeuner Sadness. Follow up

It rained all day.  I didn’t mind feeling the splatter of the raindrops as I darted to and from the vehicle while visiting my favourite bookstore.  My energy level was lower than usual but that is due to the restless night I experienced.  I just couldn’t get completely comfortable to have a good night’s sleep.  As a result I was tired and felt like the woman in the image of the SADNESS card.  I wouldn’t say I was sad but I was not happy either.

One minor event happened to a friend who told me he lost his wallet.  He was saddened by this because it is so much work to replace all the plastic carried in wallets these days. There was a larger amount of money involved as well.  When my friend relayed the message to me I felt the wallet was not lost but merely misplaced.

I did hear some sad news from a mother whose son was in the same hospital as my father.  Her 24 year old son developed severe pneumonia and was not going to survive long. The doctors were keeping him comfortable as in administering strong pain meds to alleviate the discomfort he was feeling. She was told he would not recover.  My heart went out to her and now that I think about it, yes, I was sad about what she was about to face.

it seems to me today was about various people

sharing sad experiences with me

Card of the Day. Zigeuner Wahrsagekarten. Sadness

I am selecting the Card of the Day for tomorrow.  I am aware of certain events planned for the day which don’t involve me directly. One of them is a funeral for a young man who died in a car accident.  No doubt the people who I do know who are attending will be feeling the emotion of sadness.

Sadness/Zalost

SADNESS can could color the general tone of the day.  Everyone has days in which they experience lower energy.  When you focus on situations which are not completely positive they can drain you and the blues set in temporarily.  As long as this feeling is brief there is no problem.

This is a card suggesting the lack of emotional balance.  A situation can come up where plans do not materialize due to external influences such as the needs of other people.  Happiness is a state of mind and so is SADNESS.

In the image the lady is hiding her body in a full flowing dress.  Is she ashamed of something she did?  Is she concealing the truth about a person or situation?  Every once in a while when you get to that quiet place in your mind you come to the realization that you are only deceiving yourself by believing everything is ok in your life.

Often this card strongly suggests you will be disappointed at the outcome of some plans. Whatever it is that you were really looking forward to may have to be postponed.  You may have to cheer yourself up because everyone else around you is experiencing an “off day”.

The SADNESS card depicts a partly blue sky which holds promise of improved weather involving the emotions.

Sadness-

The study of the Lenormand or Gipsy Zigeuner Wahrsagekarten are much in the same when you read them-
The key is your synthesis ability.

I find the Gipsy cards (example below) full of intrigue & mystery because you can give any meaning to them as long as you are consistent in keeping the same meanings + reflecting the actual image- the reading will work.

Zalost (Slovenian) – sadness

The Sadness card can have a different meaning other than sadness (an emotion/feeling). It is a state of mind – an approach to circumstanes.
This is important to remember.
She doesn’t look that sad to me. She looks like she has gained a lot of weight and is hiding it with her long flowing dress. Sure that would make anyone sad for a brief time, but you can do something about it.

There is another kind of sadness. The kind of emotion when you lose something or someone dear to you. You feel unhappy and it hurts. The hurt influences how you see things in general.

Whenever the Sadness card shows up near the Sweetheart or Lover cards, the person depicted by those cards is experiencing some sorrow especially if Sadness is above or below. It will always be the Now column in the Large board layout which uses all 36 cards. Above- is current and Below- is immediate.

If Sadness is behind or after the 2 significator/person getting the reading has this experience in the past or they are approaching a situation the will toy with their emotions. (in the large board of 36 cards)

There are positive aspects to the Sadness card. You are “feeling” an emotion and you are not indifferent or numb, and that is a good thing in itself.
