Or maybe people put too much stock in these cards and they didn't mean anything.. especially when people had to reach to find a meaning that fit. He did have to laugh at her last words. "Yeah, maybe that's it.."
"Alright.. third and final card. This one's for your future." Then it would be his turn to get a reading and he was remotely curious about what the cards had in store for him. Ethan drew the next card and laid it to the right of the other two. "The Knight of Cups.." He turned to that section in his book and read to see what that one meant. Smiling, he looked up and said, "This card represents love, imagination, and emotions.. It characterizes a loving and peaceful atmosphere and a time to dwell on your fantasies.. decisions will be based on emotions." He looked back down at the passage and skimmed a bit more before continuing. "It also says it will be a time to be open to exploring your dreams and a good time to achieve goals." Hmm, pretty good card for the future, he thought. Ethan looked back carefully at Min, figuring she would think the same. "Thoughts?"
Minerva's smile got bigger as she heard the last card. So many possibilities with this final card. Minerva thought about it for awhile.
"Well I think it sounds great, but with only one condition.." She gave him a little smirk,
"Only if your in that future as well." She nudged him half joking, but thinking she hoped she would be right..
Taking the cards from Ethan's hand, Minerva giggled,
"Alright your turn.." She grinned hoping to be good at reading his cards. Clearing her throat and making a little suspense for the event Minerva sat up straighter..
"Now.. Mr. McCarthy it is time to see your life in cards.." She couldn't help but giggle a bit.
Pulling the first card she turned it to show him.
"Your first card which is for your past is the Hierophant card." Minerva took the book that was in front of Ethan and search for the card.
"It says that this card brings the spiritual down to earth." That really didn't make sense to Minerva though, so she read more into it.
"So the way it looks, for your past, this card could mean that you were raised with a structured belief setting and a strong culture identity." Minerva looked at hi feeling a bit bad, this seemed a little lame for her first try, but she could understand it.
"I could see that. Your family is close, so I think you could say you have strong culture identities and structured beliefs from your family. What do you think?"
