After a breakup the most common question is "will they contact me?" Tarot does not predict dates, but it shows quite clearly which way things between you are leaning right now. Here are five cards that often come up in contact readings.
1. Six of Cups: memories are stirring
Children handing over a cup of flowers. It means a time when good memories come back. They may be looking at old photos or places you went together and thinking of that time too.
- Think about: getting back together on memories alone often repeats the same problems. Remember why it ended as well.
2. Eight of Wands: news moving fast
Eight staffs flying through the sky. Things that were stuck suddenly speed up. In contact readings it reads as movement: a message, news, a chance connection.
- Think about: the faster things move, the better it is to take a breath before you reply.
3. Judgement: a voice calling you back
People rising at the sound of a trumpet. A time to bring the past out and settle it. In reunion readings it often reads as a chance to talk again.
- Think about: if you do talk again, put what you want to say, an apology or a thank you, into one line first.
4. Two of Swords: they are hesitating too
A blindfolded figure holding two crossed swords. A decision is being put off. The silence may not mean no feelings; they may simply not have chosen an answer yet.
- Think about: one light, no-pressure check-in works better than pushing.
5. Eight of Cups: walking away to move on
Someone leaving a stack of cups behind and walking into the night. They may already be letting go and taking another road. It hurts, but it also means a new road is open for you.
- Think about: when this card appears, ask "how do I want to live now?" rather than "when will they call?"
Cards show a direction, not a date
The same card reads differently depending on its position. The Six of Cups in the "their feelings" position is not read the same way as in the "what comes next" position. You can look up every card in tarot card meanings.
