If you draw the Eight of Sky card in the Mystical Cats Tarot deck, what does it mean? Is this a good card to draw? What lessons can you learn from this tarot card reading?
DECK: Mystical Cats Tarot CARD: Eight of Sky (Eight of Swords) POSITION: Upright In Mystical Cats Tarot, the Sky Clan cards correspond to the Suit of Swords in any of the Waite Tarot decks. In many cases, while the artwork on the cards is considerably different, they are often read much the same. However, what the Eight of Sky suggests by what the Mystical Cats guidebook says is quite different from traditional readings of the Eight of Swords in Waite Tarot. Typically, the Eight of Swords would represent isolation, imprisonment, or self-imposed restriction. But although imprisonment is signified by the Eight of Sky, it's read with a far more positive connotation. Let’s see what’s suggested by the cat in this card. According to the “Tales of the Mystical Cats,” if you’re in a bad situation, it’s not as dire as you might think or as it first appears. If you feel trapped without any choices, stay calm. There’s a simple solution if you look for it. The best advice is to stay still and let your fear pass. If you thrash about, the situation will only get worse. Don’t let frustration get the best of you, and don’t let small annoyances only add to your frustration. Trust your own intelligence to find your way out. By the Mystical Cats reading, the Eight of Sky signifies that you're currently being held back or have been isolating yourself for reasons that very likely aren't enough to keep you that way. In fact, you'd read this card much like you would the reversed Eight of Swords in Waite Tarot. That would be saying you should be open to new perspectives to release yourself into the life you could be living. In any case, this card means that whatever is keeping you stuck at the moment will soon pass if you keep an open mind. What does the Eight of Sky (or Eight of Swords) card mean for you? ~ Phoenix <3

If you draw the Stars card in the Mystical Cats Tarot deck, what does it mean? Is this a good card to draw? What lessons can you learn from this tarot card reading?
DECK: Mystical Cats Tarot CARD: Stars (The Star) POSITION: Upright In Mystical Cats Tarot, the Stars card is the same as The Star in any of the Waite Tarot decks. In this deck, the imagery of the Stars card depicts a grey cat in a tree looking up at the constellation of the Great Lion. It’s the same artwork depicted on the front of the Mystical Cats Tarot box. The Major Arcana are known as the Cat Mysteries in the Mystical Cats Tarot deck, hence why some of the names of the cards are different and their meanings somewhat altered. Quoting the “Tales of the Mystical Cats:” “When Bast gave birth to the universe, she blessed each of her creations with a connection to cosmic consciousness. Cats are aware of this from kittenhood. We know we are part of something bigger than ourselves. Like stars, we are bright, perfect, unique, and are linked to a common origin as we live out our individual destinies. This is the great Mystery of faith: to trust that there is meaning and intention in the pattern of our lives. When we gaze upward and behold the Great Lion, we know that we too are made of stardust.” - Lunaea Weatherstone, “Tales of the Mystical Cats from Mystical Cats Tarot What advice does this card give you? The advice that the Stars card gives you is that you should never doubt your uniqueness. You are a precious being and a vital part of the unfolding of the Universe. Keep faith that things are happening as they are meant to, even if things are unclear right now. You must trust the Universe that the pattern of your life will soon become much clearer to you. You can take action knowing that your path is being guided by the Divine Will. Indeed, this is a great card to see all the time! It’s very much the same as pulling The Star from a traditional Waite deck. The Star often signifies positive things such as inspiration and Hope, serenity and renewal, and spirituality. Also, just like the Stars card in Mystical Cats Tarot, the Star is associated with the number 17. From a numerology perspective, 17 equals 8: (1+7=8). The number Eight means Strength. This is the quality most necessary when learning to love and accept yourself in spite of your faults.
While the traditional Waite Tarot meaning and the Mystical Cats Tarot meanings are somewhat different, they certainly go together. Whichever meaning you choose to believe in by your own intuition, drawing this card is a good omen. Know that the Universe has your back as long as you learn to accept and love yourself and have faith in your own abilities and talents.

If you draw the Ace of Earth card in the Mystical Cats Tarot deck in the reversed position, what does it mean? Is this a good card to draw? What lessons can you learn from this tarot card reading?
DECK: Mystical Cats Tarot CARD: Ace of Earth (Ace of Pentacles) POSITION: Reversed/Inverted In Mystical Cats Tarot, the Earth Clan cards correspond to the Suit of Pentacles in any of the Waite Tarot decks. In this case, the Ace of Earth is the analog for the Ace of Pentacles. In this deck, the imagery of the Ace of Earth depicts a giant cat paw engraved into a big tree in the middle of a field. What advice does this card give you? When it’s upright, the Ace of Earth (or Ace of Pentacles) signifies new opportunity is right on the horizon. But when reversed, it can represent missed opportunity or a lack of foresight or planning. The Mystical Cats Tarot deck guidebook, “The Tales of the Mystical Cats,” advises you that you may miss a great opportunity that’s right in front of you. You may be too ungrounded or scattered currently to see it. Don’t doubt your own good fortune by waste it by putting things off or being careless with your gifts. The advice for this card also suggests that if you drew this card for a question, the answer could be yes or no. It depends on what gift is being offered to you and whether or not you want to accept it. While this card does have many negative connotations, there is a bright side to revealing this card for your reading. It can mean that you’re experiencing self-doubt about an opportunity that has presented itself. In that case, the card advises you to not pass it up. Another positive way of looking at this card in the reversed position is that you may have been putting off something you’ve wanted to do for a long time. Seeing this card in your reading signifies that you shouldn’t delay any longer and pursue whatever it is that you want to do. Follow your heart and in this case, listen to your heart over your head. However, seeing the Ace of Earth reversed also means you must be cautious in your ventures. But, don’t let taking careful steps be mistaken for putting things off. You may need to take baby steps rather than diving headlong into whatever it is you’re trying to do.
Drawing the Ace of Earth in your Tarot reading means that the Earth Clan is welcoming you. It means that you have a strong connection with the Earth that you shouldn’t deny. You may be frustrated that things are not manifesting in the way you intended, and you may be finding great difficulty in achieving your goals. Don’t take this card as a bad omen, though. Just look at it as a sign that you just need to pursue your same goals, but that you should be mindful of each step that you take.

If you draw the Three of Sea card in the Mystical Cats Tarot deck, what does it mean? Is this a good card to draw? What lessons can you learn from this tarot card reading?
DECK: Mystical Cats Tarot CARD: Three of Sea (Three of Cups) POSITION: Upright In Mystical Cats Tarot, the Sea Clan cards are the same as those in the Suit of Cups in any of the Waite Tarot decks. In this case, the Three of Sea corresponds with the Three of Cups. In this deck, the imagery of the Three of Sea depicts two cats and a seal chilling out on a rocky surface at the seashore. What advice does this card give you? According to the “Tales of the Mystical Cats,” the Three of Sea advises you to get together soon with friends. It’s a reminder that others take the same pleasure in your company as you do in theirs. You don’t need a special occasion or group activity to get together. It’s a time to celebrate the friendships in your life! Much like its counterpart in the Three of Cups, this is a card of community and friendship. The Three of Sea card is a reminder that no matter what problems you may have in your life currently, enjoying quality time with family and friends is highly important. It’s the best way you can deal with any hassles or stresses that you’re currently dealing with. Also, like with the Three of Cups, drawing this card signifies a respite from periods of high stress. It can mean the conclusion of any major problems you are currently having in your life. This is especially true if you’re currently dealing with trouble in interacting with others. What this card tells me is that if you’re currently feeling isolated, then you should reach out and share your positive intentions and energy with others. Whether that’s a friend you haven’t spoken to in awhile or a family member that’s going through a rough time, focus on bringing good to them. You may find that that you want to band with others, friends, family, acquaintances, or even total strangers to achieve a common goal for the greater good. This may involve a creative activity, such as art, writing, or some other sort of club. But it could also be a non-profit organization that serves the greater good of community.
In any case, the Three of Sea is a great card to draw upright. Take time to spend with your friends and family. Find something that you love that can help you benefit others. Share your positive energy with others, and they will share theirs with you!
