I asked the cards to choose what to tell me for a picture to post for an example read. This is what they chose. Honestly, it’s spot on. I drew Queen of Pentacles Reversed, Ace of Wands Reversed, and Nine of Wand. Overall it discusses needing to find balance and focus on self-care. I have shown keywords, interpretations and my reflection below.
1. Queen of Pentacles Reversed
- Keywords: Unkempt, Self-absorbed, Greedy.
- Interpretation: I have become so absorbed and hyperfocusing on my blog, social media, trying to balance my budget for creative classes/social groups, and trying not to overbook my planner that I am neglecting self-care and overextending my energy and finances
2. Ace of Wands Reversed
- Keywords: Lack of Energy, Lack of Passion, Delays, Creative Blocks.
- Interpretation: I may be overextending and starting to lose energy or show signs of burnout due and if I continue I might deal with burnout.
3. Nine of Wands
- Keywords: Persistence, Perserverance, Close to Success
- Interpretation: This card is telling me that persistence is key. I’m close to success in these endeavors and the exhaustion is temporary and success can’t be won without hard work. I need to stop overextending myself in order to find enough balance and energy to continue.
Reflection
This is true. Between appointments, trying build a local social life, trying to invest in Makerspace and creative classes, and working on my blog I have felt like I’m overextending a bit. S, I’m going to try to find more balance between making time for rebuilding energy, self-care, self-growth & investing in all of those aspects instead of overestending my energy, time, and finances.
The tarot deck I used in the featured picture above is the Lost Hollow deck.
