This Month's Questions;Each month, Madam Lichtenstein graciously answers those burning questions you've sent her. Consulting both your astrology chart and/or her Tarot cards, she uses her years of experience, common sense and innate talents to send you along on your journey well-equipped and well-informed. Here are this month's questions!
Q. I have been with my g/f, anne, for 9 months. And my question was if I should marry her, well basically is this gonna last as we think it will or should I persue and old flame instead? ps her b day is 11/01/83 time of bith was 7 am.
A. I would say that if you are even asking whether or not, you yourself are having doubts. But I asked the tarot cards if you should marry your current girlfriend and the results were very interesting - currently, you are seeking to flee (The Fool Card) because things look too speculative and not worth the effort (8 of pentacles). However, I see change afoot! You are afraid of being reckless (6 swords) but positive change (7 of pentacles) will happen in about 6 months if you can hang on. Hang on!
Q. I'm in love with two women, both are older than me. One I've had a relationship with for 19 years. The other I met two years ago and had an affair with. Now I live with the second one, but all we do is fight. What should I do? My ex is an aries & my new is a taraus.
A.Two women eh? Well you have sun in pisces which tends to be overly romantic and flirtatious so no wonder you could be lured by a dream after 17 years in a reltionship. But it may be just a nightmare, as you are finding out. You have venus, the planet of love, in aquarius which can be rather distant and platonic rather than sensual and passionate. Are you allowing the fires of "what could be" die out during the "what is"? My advice, Keep those fires burning even though you sometimes may feel like cold toast.
Q. Hello, thank you for taking time to read this question. I would like to know if there is a positive futur for my girlfriend and I. We have been together for three months, but we took a five month brake from one another because of somethings that accured. I know that I love my girlfriend very much, and I know she loves me but I would like to know if her and I will be together for any long length of time? Her and I both are still in our teens and I have yet to comeout to my parenst, but her mother knows about us. And if I were to tell my parents would they react positivly or negitivly to our relationship? Please give me any advice that you can, any and all advice is greatly apreciated. Oh her birthdate is 6/25/84
A. The tarot card of the knight of swords popped for the deckas I was thinking about your question. This means that you are consumed with stressful thoughts. These thoughts can hold you back becasue you do not know which way to go and just sit and worry about it. My advice, you are young and full of potential. I don't know what might have happened that caused the break but, believe me, this happens quite a lot, especially when you are young and wear your heart on your sleeve. Enjoy your girlfriend and go out and have good times together. Don't worry about how long things will last - make every minute count. Also, apply yourself to your studies - especially english and writing skills - they will take you far.
Q. I have been friends with Betsy ever since 11th grade. As life went on we've kept in touch even though we've lived far away. But, as time went on we spoke less and less and eventually my phone calls went unreturned. I recently got back in touch with her after finding out she's moved closer to me after a relationship breakup. A few phone calls went fine but now it's back to no talking again at all. I sent a Christmas card and a birthday card (2/12/??) to her with my phone number and told he I'd really like to get together with her again and be friends again like we used to be. I miss my friend and just want her back. Should I try to contact her one more time or should I just realize that this friendship is over and I should move on with my life?
A. I pulled three cards from the tarot deck for your friend and I see some bad speculation (not worth the effort) and some positive change in the long term (maybe up to 2 years). If you are keen on remaining in contact, give her a bit more time and try again. Now doesn't seem to be a good time though.
Q. Wonderin, if i'll ever find that special someone? and if i see her but can't find her then what should I do?
A. The tarot cards say Yes! but not immediately. You have to put out great energy (Magician card) and she will be there for you (Queen of cups). She is beautiful creative and kind. It will take time, but so does anything worth doing well!
Q. My life has lead me to a crossroad where each way takes me a different way in love....how do i go?
A.The tarot cards choose the woman who is the more creative of the two, with fairer hair and a more childlike disposition. You will get your wish!!
Q. i just graduated college with a fine arts degree, minor in creative writing. i've been looking around for a job using my art, which i really want to do, but haven't had any luck. my teachers at school used to say get space, create art, go to galleries and convince them why they should put your stuff on their walls. am i going to find a decent job soon or where should i look that i'm not already doing? it's frustrating me not to find anything. also, am i going to find real love this year, as i don't tend to meet people and all the relationships i've had haven't worked out, and i really need love, yet i'm starting to feel like it's never goiong to happen and i don't know if i'll make it out there all alone.
A. I checked the tarot cards and I DO see success coming for you, in both career and love, but not immediately. (Isn't that the way it is...) The Temperance card suggests that there will be a 6 mon to two year delay in your plans. But that doesn't mean that you should sit back and wait - it means you have around two years to set the foundations andget things moving. Changes are a'coming - be ready for them.
Q. am i bisexualy active?
A. An intriguing question and, since it is genetic, you'll have to tell me!
Q. My gf just broke up with me after three and a half years. We fought for a really long time after that but now we are getting along great and she is more and more attractive to me everyday. I want her back more than anything....what are my chances with her?? by the way she is a virgo born 9/15/75
A. Whoo Hoo. The tarot cards say this is the big one - the SUn indicates that you will get your great wish. So is she your great wixh? As you both examine your inner needs and desires and listen to your internal voices (The High Priestess card) you both will decide that this is it. Good luck to both of you!
Q. oh madam i'm so confused about my work life right now. the salon that i work at will most likely be closing down in july. part of me is telling me to go back to school and the other is telling me to just find another salon to work at? do the cards have any hints as to what is coming my way career/work/school wise?
A. Always veering towards suggesting education, old Madam Lichtenstein asked the question of the tarot - "Should she go back to school rather than seek another salon?" and the tarot says seek another salon. Go figure. The cards also say that changes that you are undergoing are good because they enable to open up a new door of opportunity somewhere else. You will thrive!
Q. As a shy, closeted dyke, would it be a good idea to come out any time soon? Would it help my prospects of finding a significant other? I appreciate any advice you can offer!
A. I don't need the cards to say of course it is better to come out, but also examine your surroundings for actual timing. The tarot cards say that there is a great opportunity for you when you do come out - it will help you overcome social problems (5 swords) and will be an improvement in the overall flow of your life (5 of wands). I do see some delays in love (welcome to the club) but once you decide to get out of your rut (The Hnaged Man) and make a decision, love will be waiting. Did I say waiting? I meant panting.
Q. About a year ago I ended a relationship with my best friend. When she walked out on our relationship, she walked out of our friendship too. Now she has a boyfriend and refuses to acknowledge my exisit, but I'm still in love with her. Do I have a chance of ever being with her again? And if I do, will things work out well?
A. You know, the tarot cards seem to say that there are better women for you on the horizon. The cards say that getting back with her is too time consuming (9 of pentacles) but there is wonderful new opportunities down the road for a better relationship with someone else. (10 of pentacles). Count your blessings and move on - keep your eyes open.
Q. i met a wonderful girl(her birthday is 5-3-75), and we get along great! but i am hesitant to commit cuz i'm once bitten, twice shy. should i just go for it with this new girl?
A. The cards say good things are in store for you with this lass. The 10 of pentacles means good things in the long term. You (and maybe she) has to make a decision (The Lovers card) about a Man (King of cups). Can you shed light on that sequence??
Q. Well i've been w/ my girlfriend for about 13 months..Im ready to commit for the rest of my life to this woman. Im 20 and she is 23. I know i am young still but i want to ask her to marry me. Im not talking about getting married tomorrow..but i just want to prove to her how strong my love is for her and how she is not only my lover, my companion, but my best friend. Im so ready to be w/ her forever.....I just don't know if she is......Should i wait..or should i pursue this????
A. As a true Aries, you know that actions speak louder than words. The tarot cards say that now that you have decided (The Lovers Card) the romance will bloom and flourish. And it is long term (10 of pentacles). So show her how you feel....
Q. why happen a lesbian
A. Dear L.A.C., Genetics.
Q. Two questions. Firstly, will the email relationship I started with a girl I met on Technodyke become more than a cyber-friendship (she was born on the 18/9/81)? Secondly, I have been put on probation at uni for failing a subject twice. Am I really destined to be a teacher or should I try my hand at something else? Perhaps law?
A. The tarot cards indicate that this could be the beginning of a wonderful relationship - the 6 of cups indicates romance! and the 10 of cups indicates a lovergrrl who is quite different from you. Go for the gold here! As far as your career track -what course did you fail twice? If it was "accounting" I think you could still become a teacher although maybe not a teacher of accounting, if it was "early education" you may wish to consider law....
Q. How much longer will I be alone? Will I finally find love this year? If so who will she be?
A. Well the tarot cards say you will have a choice of two women! One is a mothering type (Queen of wands) and the other is tough tough tough (Queen of swords). Either one could be good for you (7 of Pentacles) but you have to get Out there and look for her!
Q. My question is: Does my boyfriend Justin like me for me or does he just want sex? Also, when will he start being more like a boyfriend to me instead of a stranger?
A.Forget about Justin. How about Justine?
Q. Hi i met someone and of cource my walls are up.... i havnt gotta red flag yet. she seems to be just as cautios as me. her date is October 9th and is almost 31 and born 11:45 am.. are we a match???? and your advise last year was right on.... thanks :)
A. Flattery will get you everywhere! The tarot cards say that this relationship will have its delays (The Devil Card). There are obvious problems that need to be worked out beofre you two can go the next step. "Changes where you live" (The 7 of cups) - does that mean a change in philosophy? You are in suspension (The Hanged Man) and need to make a decision to get out of your rut. It is all up to you.
Q. i MET THIS GIRL LIKE A WEEK AND A HALF AGO . At a party she seemed real cool , Ive been trying to get sense saturday and my friend knows her friend and she was suppose to her give her my number. but i dont knoiw if she did if she did not why hasn't she called me. Is she not interested?
A. The tarot cards say give the girl a little time. She is slow and careful (The Hermit card) and has been disappointed in the past (Queen of Swords).
Q. Will me and my girlfriend stay together?
A. Hmmm. The tarot cards say that there are problems here (The Devil card) but they are clear, obvious problems that are not hidden under the surface. If they are not hidden, they can be solved. Are you both committed to solving them? The 6 of swords cards indicates that there is a fear of being reckless, but sometime you have to break a few eggs to make an omlette. If this is a relationship worth saving, do what you have to do to make it work. The cards have spoken!
Q. I met this woman last year, her bday is 8/28/65, i feel good when i am with her, but right now i am in school 1000 miles away. Will it work out when i move there?
A. The tarot cards seem to indicate that if you think of this relationship in logical terms (2 of wands) then you will drive yourself crazy (4 of swords) - it is so much work now (9 of pentacles). Let things roll along and see how things go. You have just finished your Saturn Return - a three year period of change from ages 27-30. Did you meet her during your return. Expect changes in your outlook - you have matured over the past three years and now know more about what works for you.
