Revangabriel,
Since it has already been nearly a week since I posted this and there have so far been no takers, I will now offer you my own impressions concerning the most likely place to find your missing photographs, and precious memories of your departed friend.
Any other person (reader or non reader) who also wishes to be of some help, is free to do so.
To begin this reading I asked two separate questions. You will not like the first question which was "do these missing photos still exist?"
I did not see much point in asking my second question which was "where can these photos be found?" if the answer to the first question was NO.
The good news is that the
Four of Wands tarot card suggests to me that the photos DO STILL EXIST, and also that they are in a place where they can be reasonably easily recovered from.
To me the Four of Wands represents a celebration of either a marriage, or alternately a close and deeply affectionate friendship. This only reinforces my initial impression that this person now in Spirit was much more than a passing acquaintance or temporary friend to you.
Regardless of this person's relationship to you while they were alive, I am getting that he or she was also one of your soul mates (we each have more than one of these in any given lifetime). For me to say that this person was and still is special to you, would be an understatement. Hence the importance and urgency of locating these photos for you, ASAP.
Second question and answer coming up!
The
Ten of Cups is once again about marriage and possibly as well about children. The Cups suit always represents to me the nature and depth of a person's closest relationship(s). The apparent closeness and high level of intimacy which you enjoyed with this person is immediately apparent to this reader from both of these cards.
Intimacy BTW does not necessarily always have to involve a physical or sexual relationship with that person. Rather intimacy means that you would trust this person with your deepest secret longings. If under pressure, you would trust this person with your very life! Rainbows as one appears on the face of this card symbolise to me promises or sacred vows made between two people, which will be honoured and respected even after the death of either of the two individuals.
The reading sees the missing photographs as not being any longer in your home, if indeed that is where they once were located. The building in which you are likely to find them is in a country like or rural or semi rural setting. Plenty of trees and other greenery closely surround this building, as shown in the background on the Ten of Cups.
At a reasonable distance from your home, but not so far that it would take an hour to make the journey in your car. Probably well under 60 minutes. Everything is telling me that either another member of your family has them (but may not remember keeping them), or that someone appointed to legally represent a member of your family has them for safekeeping. There will be a mixture of both joy and embarrassment by all the individuals concerned, when these wayward photos are finally located in mint condition.
Please keep me updated about any positive developments in your ongoing search for the photos, in this discussion thread.
All the best,
EoT
