I was perusing a Tarot website when I saw that this guy did a Tarot reading regarding a character from the movie Fight Club. I saw this and wondered if I would get the same kind of results if I did one on the relationship between Solf J. Kimblee and María Sánchez.
Much to my surprise, the reading came out butt-freakin' awesomely accurate!
What I did was I used my Universal Rider-Waite deck. The spread I used was the traditional Celtic Cross.
Here's what the spread looked like:
Sorry, I didn't use any actual images in that picture because I was too lazy to. Worry not, though! Above each card description I will show an image of that particular card.
Question: How will Solf and Maria's Romance / Life turn out?
(1) Represents Question
Death
The white rose in this card represents true love. What death means here is a season in life ending which gives way to a time of mourning. It means the end of Maria's old life and the metamorphosis of Solf's personality. He becomes a better person because of her.
(2) Crosses Question
Queen of Cups (Reversed)
This card is a card of lack of communication. Solf has a difficult time expressing his feelings for Maria and vice-versa. Perhaps it is because of a fear of rejection.
(3) Distant Past
9 of Wands (R)
This card is in regards to Maria's past; This is about her ex-boyfriend Steven dumping her and it is a card of recuperation. Notice the bandages on his head; it represents the recovery of her mental health when she stayed in the psychiatric hospital.
(4) Recent Past (Now)
Knight of Swords
Solf is aggressively pursuing a life of freedom from the Homunculi for him and Maria. She is in danger of being strung up in the middle of the violent clashes between the Homunculi and the Elrics.
(5) Near Future
The High Priestess
Maria will become aware of how she can change her circumstances by envisioning what she wants. she begins to attain psychic awareness -- because of Patrick leaving a note and a book telling her the truth behind Catholicism.
(6) Distant Future
Page of Swords
The relationship between the two and the goals of capturing Scar and Doctor Marcoh are delayed by a determined youth -- Edward Elric. He is motivated by unconventional activity and has Maria set up a wire in Solf's bedroom so Edward and his companions can use her to squeeze information out of the Crimson Alchemist. Instead of of Edward getting the information he wanted, Maria completely forgets about their "plan" and ends up having sex with Solf with Fullmetal and his friends listening in. (Oops!)
This card also represents Edward encouraging Scar to kidnap Maria along with Winry.
(7) Returning to the Question
7 of Cups (R)
Maria is confused because there are a million things going on at once (and it's even more difficult because she cannot predict what will happen because she knows next to nothing about the series) and she's worried about how she will find a way back to California. She has to sort through her options; help the Elrics for the good of mankind or stay by Solf's side and serve the evil Homunculi and their Father. Will she stay in Amestris or will she go back to California? Either way, she knows she wants to spend her life with Solf but is unsure of where she wants to live.
(8) Family and Environment
6 of Cups
Being with Maria it reminds Solf of better days of his childhood. He finds that he is very comfortable with her and can relax when they are together. He finds great happiness with her.
(9) Inner Fears / Concerns
5 of Cups
For once Solf has found something that makes him happy but is worried about his darker self taking over. He realizes that finding temporary relief in the midst of destruction cannot fill the void in his heart and he is afraid that it will affect his relationship with Maria. He doesn't want to hurt her.
(10) End Result
Queen of Wands (R)
In the end Maria takes Solf home with her, taking full responsibility of his affairs and supporting him financially until he has his "paperwork" ready(in other words they try to make him a United States citizen). Maria also warns him that he cannot do the malicious things that he did in Amestris because the government will label him as a Terrorist and eliminate him.
And yeah, I did this out of boredom. I was really surprised at the results because they are so painfully accurate. =D
