I was given a reading where they said that about my relationship, but it wasn't true. It was ' a match made in heaven" on paper, but the baggage/chemistry between us was not compatible. How would you read that then? I understand how they came to that, but in that case.. it was more 'staying the same" as opposed to it being great or increasing/decreasing. It was just the same.
How can you tell the difference when doing readings like that? This is such a different system and some people said don't use intuition. So, how to tell the difference?
So, in what I said above.. how would you read that? If it was supposed to be a 'match made in heaven' but isn't.. it is just the same. {nothing worse or nothing better} how would I know {or even the reader that gave me that reading} know that is wasn't a match made in heaven relationship? Or was it just saying it was "supposed to be"?
Sorry for the questions, but without intuition.. I'm having a hard time with some of these readings. lol
Thanks for your guys help!

We shouldn't be wandering off into discussion of a different reading in this thread, but the question is a valid one. I think cards in their own houses can show a predisposition for behaving in their most natural or unbiased way. "Nothing happening" could just mean there is no friction that skews the interpretation in a direction other than its usual expression. I think of it as "greasing the skids." But it might also mean that proverbial "slippery slope" if a nastier card is empowered by a near-doubling of its potency. As I see it, the card/house alignment crystallizes or concentrates the influence, producing a purer strain or a "single note" rather than a more complex "chord" that occurs when there is a mingling of different qualities: harmony rather than dissonance.
As always, the cards show potentials and tendencies, not certainties. Heart and Ring in their own houses would provide the raw material for a successful relationship, but you would still have to do something meaningful with it to make it a reality. The fact that it "just is" won't normally be enough to do that on its own (except maybe in a Disney movie).
