Dear Velvet,
I am going to tunica in for valentines day with my husband.  my mother is going to come with us.  what i would like to know is will i win.  my husband and i have had alot of financial setbacks.  i'm really tired of struggling, so i was hoping me or my husband would be able to get a few bills paid. i'm kinda wishing for a miracle!  what do you think?

Dear Jenny,

The Six of Coins suggests that it is probably not your visit to Tunica that will bring improvement to your overall state of finances.  With this card's energy, you may actually win a minimal amount and have fun during your day on Valentine's Day.  However, the token amount that you bring home -- if you do gamble responsibly and carefully -- is probably not going to be sufficient to pay off bills.

It never hurts to hope for a miracle, but sometimes our true miracles arrive in other ways than what our minds envision.

The energy here lets you know that assistance will become availalbe to you -- some kind of opportunity to help you get what you need.  And although this card lets us know that you probably won't find a chance luck for a big win at lottery or a casino, you will get a push in the right direction thourgh some other means . . . very possibly a much better miracle that allows for stability in the long-term rather than just the short term.

The advice of the Six of Coins is to gamble conservatively, as this will offer more assurance of at least winning a little something, even though it might not be the miracle win you hope for.  Don't put all your "eggs into one basket" . . . and just enjoy the day.

There is probably something in the not-too-distant future that will provide you with a much more dependable financial return and stability for your efforts than your planned day in Tunica.

Good luck to you!!
