Now, this is a general reading, so try to be open and receptive to whatever may come through during our time together. I am merely the messenger, and I ask you to connect directly with each of these cards and use your own intuition to take you beyond the details that I provide. And remember, Scorpio that the most important part of any tarot reading is you.
Eight of Pentacles. I feel like right now you're in a cautious, slow, paying attention kind of energy. You're not trying to make any like sudden moves. You're not trying to make any sudden decisions. It's kind of like just stay the course. We'll keep going through the rhythms and the routines that we're in um to to see how something is going to grow. This is kind of an energy of refinement and um iteration. Okay.
So, I think that you are someone who, you know, generally is going to kind of nurture something um kind of gently, cautiously. I feel like you're not in a rush. You're not there's no sense of urgency here with you right now. Uh, I think spirit is is trying to to encourage you to go slow with something and to take your time and do things right. I feel like you're very meticulous. Yeah. I feel like you especially when things are very important. You don't rush through them. You know, you read the fine print. You double check your work. If you have you're taking a big exam and you you're done early, you go back over your work and you just kind of think through the answers again and make sure everything looks okay. You know, you got the extra time, you might as well use it, right?
I feel like you're very good at time management. Now, not always. Sometimes you're in a hurry. Uh sometimes I feel like you overbook yourself. Yeah. But right now, it seems like you are um you're you're good at that kind of management. I think you're you're probably good at like managing resources, budgeting um money and time, you know, budgeting your energy even. And so I think that's a really useful thing right now, especially if there are kind of big things happening in your life. It's important that you take your time, you do them right. Um don't rush and and make a mistake, okay? Because it's going to be like the simple mistake that really is going to get you. So, whatever you're doing, give it another give it a second glance. You know, look at it again and make sure that you, you know, you signed it at the bottom. Sometimes I'll send paperwork off and I'll forget to sign it or I I sent you know what I did is I sent some tax paperwork off the other day and I put the wrong date on the top of the paper in my just well I get it done real quick and I'll send it in and nope uh wrong date. So, kind of had to start all over again. It's terrible. Uh, very inconvenient to say the least. So, I feel like you're really on the lookout for that. Okay.
I think you're very conscientious person and kind of meticulous right now and you need to be because it feels like there's probably a lot of pressure around you to do things with haste, but you're not going to. Okay. Be patient and prudent and uh careful. There we have the hanged man and we have the nine of wands. Oh yeah. See, the fire now is already surrounding you. Uh kind of a um Oh, gee, look at that. You're kind of like a scorpion that's being that's surrounded by fire and we don't want to do anything that's going to Oh, thank you. There is a way forward here with the uh the water energy. So, we started to get that kind of, you know, that feeling like we're being we're being surrounded by all of this heat and well, a scorpion surrounded by all of that heat is going to do some kind of drastic things, right? Um, but I think that you are choosing to take your time. Spirit's kind of giving you the pause energy right now. It doesn't mean that what you're doing is not going to work. It doesn't mean spirit's telling you to stop, but just to slow down and make sure you look at everything first because um, you have you have a desire to control things, you know, like you're very intense as a person and I think you like to keep moving forward deeper into that intensity. Yeah, which is kind of like the fire here. Uh, but spirit's saying, "Let's go, let's go slow. Let's double check everything. Um, let's even just kind of hit the pause button and let's just back up for a second to see how something is going to play out. Yeah, I think it's going to I think it's going to work very well for you, whatever you're doing in life."
Let's keep going with a few more cards. Here we have the six of cups. Very beautiful. A nine of swords. There is some danger there in the environ, some anxiety over something in a relationship that you have. And in that anxiety, of course, it just means we need to slow down. you know, when we're anxious about something um and there is kind of maybe there there is um a bit of risk involved there, even more reason to slow down and and do things in a conscientious and meticulous, you know, mindful kind of way. We have the chariot and then we have the four of cups as well. A lot of water energy now that we're seeing. Yeah, got a good amount of water, good amount of fire. So, this really is about kind of cooling our jets, holding our horses, uh, for just a moment now. Don't let that be any kind of disconnect between some of the last readings that we might have had that have told you to go faster or that this is the thing for you and you need to dive in 1,000% to something, you still do. I mean, all that energy, the last reading I did for you, I don't remember exactly what it was. Um, I don't intentionally try to make one reading connect to the last. You know, it just it is what it is. This is a snapshot of your energy. Now, spirit's telling you there's a lot of momentum. We just have to pay attention. You have to use your patient and meticulous mindful energy right now. That's the eight of pentacles. That's the part of you that spirit is trying to say that's the energy that's needed. That's the part of you that you need to kind of activate. Okay.
Let's select our mystery card, bonus card, confirmation card. This is a random card from the Smith Weight Tarot. This is the factor infinite and unknown. We're going to set it down right here with our little sea turtle friend right there on top. We're not going to look at that card until the very end. It will tie everything together. It will give us the confirmation that we need at the end of the reading. If at any moment during this message, you feel like you might know what that card might be, put your prediction in the comments.
Now, before we dive in, we do need to summon your spirit animal. And for you, we have the squirrel spirit. Believe in yourself. Yeah, believe in yourself. And I think that's a really interesting um piece of advice here because especially with that nine of swords because if this is any kind of a disbelief or any kind of an an expectation of catastrophe or an expectation of failure then what may happen is you might be moved to do something hasty or do something if you don't believe in yourself There might be a kind of you know a self-sacrificing here. There might be a feeling of just kind of giving up or quitting or the you know the the belief that you can't handle the pressure cuz there's a lot of pressure. There's a lot of momentum. There's a lot of this fiery pressure behind you sweeping you forward. You see? And I think the nine of swords might be saying like you you have doubts. I think that's normal. Okay. You have worries. You have like you you understand the reality of something like it could it could end in a nightmare. I think if you're slow and cautious and you pay attention, it's going to end as a dream coming true. Okay? You're moving forward to this 10 of cups. This is the ideal outcome for you. The ideal outcome is here. It's available. It's real and you can achieve this. I think there just needs to be a kind of calm, centered, balanced energy. And even, you know, it could even be that there is just this overzealous energy, this overeager um thing that's going on. And I think we we need to stabilize, balance the fire and the water. Balance this intense desire to like get it done with a cool, calm, collected, mindful approach. Yeah. Let me know what you think about the squirrel spirit. Do you believe in yourself right now? Or are your doubts kind of um or your worries or your concern is your anxiety kind of um you know urging you to do something that might be hasty right now. This cool calm collected energy is what really what really needs to be invoked.
So uh looking around the room we have one two major arcana cards and in a way the hanged man is saying that um you know we we cannot absolutely control the outcome here but spirit's saying that if you have if you believe in yourself first of all and you have a patient mindful meticulous approach you're more than likely going to get all the bliss all the rewards you know the maximum maximum benefit to something. Um, and of course the converse is true. And if you don't believe in yourself and you act hastily, well then this this might be, you know, more of the reality for you. Uh, so this is the really the way forward here. You're putting in a lot of effort. You you put all your eggs in the basket. You just need to uh allow things to unfold. And I think the um the chariot there is kind of symbolizing like this triumphant progress and this very confident marching forward you know this parade uh down victory lane and of course it's in the position of the fear and the worry and the concern and I think the concern is that if you if you don't act with urgency and intensity that there's going to be no progress that nothing's going to be gained and that you're going to lose ground. I think spirit's telling you know that's not the case right now. We have that hanged man and the hanged man can be um a position that we put ourselves in. So in other words, don't like don't hamstring yourself. Don't shoot yourself in the foot uh by doing something hasty and then we end up putting oursel in a in a very precarious position like we have here. It's like you you forget to put the right you put the wrong date. I put the wrong year. I put 2020 uh6 instead of 2025 on the paper cuz it was for obviously for last year's taxes, right? And so it, you know, confused everybody apparently. Um uh common sense is not that common, I guess. But um I'll stop there. Uh it's kind of like, you know, we we put by doing something hasty, we can put ourselves into a position of despair, of hardship, of just great headache when we don't need to. Okay. Um, it could have been avoided, let's say. So, this is a card of suffering and sacrifice, of, you know, being um in a very uncomfortable position that we don't want to be in, but it's usually something that we could have avoided, you know. Um, sometimes this is like a voluntary suffering, okay? which that's why this card has connections with um like self-sacrifice and people pleasing and kind of bending over backwards for people, putting ourselves into very uncomfortable positions intentionally for some other reason, right? And in this case, that reason is that we we went too fast and we messed up on some paperwork and now here we are. Okay. Um and there's nothing to do but kind of accept that this is where we are.
So with that eight of pentacles spirit saying don't do that you know go slow and even hit the pause button to kind of look at everything and in other words like ignore the pressure that's around you right now. You're in that high stakes kind of game. You want to double check. You want to take a deep breath and you want to look at what you're doing and make sure you're doing it right. Even if there's a deadline, even if there's some urgency, there's there's people pushing behind you, say, "No, I'm going to do it correctly." You know, um, and I don't know, maybe you do have literally like people behind you that are kind of going to be telling you, "Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up. No, I'm going to make sure that I do it right." So, you got to sort of um inoculate yourself against that kind of pressure. Yeah.
I feel like you are somebody that um can kind of trust in the universe, though. This is that card of kind of um realizing that we're not in control of everything. All we can do is our very best. All we can do is have faith and hope and trust and believe in ourselves and then trust the universe. You know, we can do our best and then we can we can pray, right? And that's sort of what this card is doing. I think that you're someone who really believes in the divine. You may not feel like a religious person, but you have a spiritual connection. spirit is supporting you. Okay. The hanged man is somebody who is supported from above, not from below. Right? That's the definition of something that's hanging like you're hanging. You got a basket of fruit that's hanging in your kitchen, right? Um it's supported from above. It's not resting on anything. So, it's um it's kind of like you're supporting yourself, but you know that spirit spirit's got you. Okay. And I think that um in that sense it it almost feels as if you are someone who is I think fiercely independent. At least right now I feel like you're fiercely independent but then still pendant uh to spirit. Do you know what I mean? Um the nine of wands underneath the surface. You are a lot stronger than you than you give yourself credit for. And I think that you are very independent right now but still suspended and supported by spirit. Okay. And so it kind of is asking that question when you feel like you're you're in this by yourself and you're hand you're dealing with something alone. If nobody else in your life is supporting you, what supports you? If you've got nothing underneath your feet right now, you're you're supported from above. Okay. And I feel like that's kind of what this card is. when you know that you've got spirit on your side and your your your spirit guide your ancestors are with you. You know, I feel like there is tremendous energy here that's saying I can be strong and I can I can do this and I can I can handle it. I can resist the pressure. Um you're someone who you're someone who is realizing that strength does not always mean doing as much as you can as quick as you can. Okay? that sometimes strength is the ability to restrain ourselves to with the sometimes it's the strength to stand back and do nothing a little bit. You know, sometimes strength is our ability to um ignore the pressure. Yeah. And maybe to stand on our own two feet and feeling like we've got the the support of the divine with us. Yeah. Especially with the sun and the moon connected. I feel like you're somebody with a strong connection to your higher self. I feel like your higher self is is giving you strength. It's kind of you've summoned that strength from your higher self and and you're you're really stepping into your true nature. And this is really this is your power right now. And um I feel like you're you're doing something that's going to affect the rest of us in a really big way. I feel like there's kind of a divine purpose or a divine mission here uh for you. Um, I don't know exactly what it is that you are doing. Um, uh, I want to take this moment to give a big shout out to everybody that supports me and supports this channel, okay? Especially everyone that's been sending in the super thanks lately. There's been so many of those. I really really do appreciate that. Okay. Um, and I think on that note, like you you are supported in more ways than you than you might feel right now. I think I'm looking at that nine of swords and feeling like maybe you're not maybe you're you're trying to believe in yourself because maybe not a lot of other people have believed in you but you're saying I'm going to do it anyway cuz you're strong Scorpio you are stronger than you give yourself credit for.
So we have, you know, the one, two, three, fire. We have the one, two, three water cards, right? We have a little bit of air, a little bit of earth. So you're in a in a phase where you are trying to act and you have been acting and you're not waiting. Now you're being told to slow down a little bit and to pay attention because maybe this is a very delicate part of the process. Maybe this is the part where you can really make a mistake. Now, you've did all this work and now it's just time to like look through your files. Make sure you put the right date on your paper before you mail it off. Okay, please. Um, I wish I would have seen this reading, you know, a week ago. Um, so I think that there's been a lot of activity. It's like almost maybe you've been like preparing things, gathering things together, and now is that final moment like you've you've done all the problems on the test, but instead of just finishing the test and turning it in, you're answering all the questions, but then you're going to review. You're going to flip back through the pages and say this, this question, this answer. Yep. Okay, I did that. Make sure you put your name on it, the date. Make sure you use the number two pencil and you filled the bubbles in on your scantron. Okay, do all of that kind of double-checking before you turn it in. That's all that this card is that these two cards are saying.
Now, in the background with the 10, the 10 of wands, um, you're someone that will you're very generous with your time and your effort. I feel like you're somebody that really has for a long time you've leaned into more is better, more action is better, more effort is better, faster and kind of more things at once, more responsibility. I feel like you've put a lot of work on your plate. You put a lot of bricks in your backpack and you said the more bricks the better, the faster we'll get there if I do more things at once. Um I feel like you've taken on at least in the past you were the kind of person who would take on extra work that you would always be saying yes to everybody that like you know that um that h asked something of you. Okay. And so I feel like there was an unfair power dynamic in your life. Maybe there was a uh someone was was dependent on you kind of in an un unhealthy way. Yeah. And I don't know if you've you've kind of shed that energy or shed that person um and kind of moved on from a particular relationship that was draining you. Okay? Because it sometimes feels like with the with the 10 of wands, I always want to call it the two, right? Because it seems like it should be two against the world. This should be a card that says the two of us working together, we can do anything, you know? Um, but sometimes with this card, it's a it's kind of it's not balanced. There's one person doing all the work and there's someone else that's just along for the ride. Okay. And I feel like maybe there was a situation where your generosity and your good nature and your hardworking ethic was being taken for granted or taking advant taken advantage of. Okay. But I feel like um I feel like you are you're capable of of doing a lot of things at once. Okay. You're very capable of of sort of showing that strength. I feel like now your strength is in not doing all this extra stuff that you don't need to be doing. Not taking on all the responsibility for everything. um but um instead using the nine of wands as this kind of independence that says I'm responsible for what I do and I think with the eight of pentacles you know it's um it's strength that's being demonstrated through your patience you know um there was a time maybe where strength was I got to go as fast as I can pedal to the metal balls to the wall you know uh level 10 effort here. And I think that now your strength is coming through like your ability to restrain yourself, your ability to slow down and pay attention and to tend to the garden and to you know to um to let something bear fruit in its own time rather than trying to rush things or force things or you know this kind of thing. So I feel like you still have this intensity but it's kind of changed form now. Yeah.
Um, what is uh what's going on with your family? I feel like there is there's a a distance between you and your family or something like this. Or maybe that's where the support you you don't feel as if you're being supported by the people that that you have worked so hard to take care of or worked so hard to please or impress. Um, or you've you've taken on a lot of family responsibility in your life. But I feel like now when you need support, I feel like maybe it's not there. Like maybe when you were younger, when you were a kid, you were taking care of everybody or you like you had maybe had to grow up fast. You had to mature and take on responsibilities as at an early age. And I think that you've always been there to help out your family, but I feel like right now when you are doing something significant for your life, it feels very big. something you're doing is is life-changing. Yeah. I feel that the support isn't really there. It's not that there's negative support, but I feel like it's just kind of a nonchalance or even like just kind of ignoring or just there's really an apathy um uh toward you about what you're doing. And I feel that so there's that dynamic that I'm feeling from your your family where it's like you gave them a lot of support, a lot of time, a lot of energy. um when they're doing stuff, when they needed something, but I think it's not coming back to you now. And it's it kind of it's it's kind of a disappointment. I feel like there's a separation. And maybe it's simply your your realization that when it really comes down to it, when the rubber meets the road, the only person you can rely on really is you and the divine support that you have in your life. Okay. Um, let's let's continue in order here and we'll talk about that again. We'll we'll revisit that and we will go deeper into this reading in the extended. Okay? And that's for channel members and Patreon members.
Um, up above, of course, is the Knight of Wands. This is that impulse to leap forward, to keep running, to just have momentum, you know, to to hit the gas, always be on the gas as fast as we can. Sometimes this can be an impulsive card. Sometimes this is a car that doesn't stop to think before it acts, you know. Uh I think you're a leader. I think you're a naturalb born leader. Um and I think that you know your your intensity, your your capability, um your capacity for work and for energy and for momentum, your capacity to like push something forward is outstanding, you know. Um, and it's part of that inner strength that's saying, "I got to hold on to this horse." That's the true measure of your strength is whether or not you can grab the reinss and say, "Whoa." You know, it's easy to just like spur the horse on and that horse is galloping and we're just trying to steer. You know, but to be able to pull it back and slow down and say, "Okay, we're in control here." And it doesn't mean that your progress is going to stop. It doesn't mean that you're giving up on whatever this is and you're saying, "I quit. I guess I can't do it." Spirit says, "No." Spirit just says, "Exert some control here and make sure that you can use the gas pedal and the brake pedal." You know, make sure you know that's really like when you can really drive the car. It's not just how fast you can go. What's the most important thing about the car? Not making it go. Making sure you can stop it. You know, anything can go fast, but the real important part is being able to slow it down when you are going really fast. So, that's truly the strength of a car is is how well it can it can hit the brakes. You have a race car, it can go 300 miles an hour. It's got shitty brakes. So, it's kind of a it's a it's a no-go, right? Pardon my language. Uh, this is a family show. Sometimes I get excited, you know, but that self-restraint, I think, is important right now. And it may be that you're in a a business kind of dynamic or a family dynamic where uh your fire energy wants to just come out and say what it wants to say. Um, but you're being you're being told to act prudently and cautiously with a lot of self-restraint. So, even in your conversations and in your relationships with that nine of swords, don't sink to their level. Uh, don't let your mouth kind of spew forth whatever it is that you really want to say. Restraint restrain your activities and your words. Okay. Um, and your thoughts a little bit too. You know, prudence and caution in your thoughts, words, and deeds will ensure that you get all the bliss, that you get that 10 of cups because you're somebody that that does want, you know, the reward. You want this to end well. You want this to become a dream come true and not a nightmare. So, whatever situation you're in, you are more likely to get the dream come true if you're cautious and a little bit slow, prudent, and mindful and kind and, you know, self-restraining. Don't let yourself do all the things that you want to do and say all the things you want to say and react how you want to react. That's the impulsive Knight of Wands talking that just wants to react, but reacting is not going to necessarily get you to this 10 of Pentacles. I think you're somebody that that is um you know what you want in life. You know, you want you know how you want your life to feel. And having this remembering that this is your goal is going to allow you to say okay I got to make sure that I'm I'm doing the right things now because your impulse and that frustration that anger is kind of like you forget about the goal and you just get angry and you do angry things you say angry things right for example but if you remember the goal then it's like okay no matter how angry I am I have to make sure that what I say and what I do is going to be the best for me. Okay. So, it really is your ability to pause mid impulse and say, "Whoa, if I do that, am I going to is that going to be a 10 of cups kind of thing or no?" You know, and if it's not, don't do that thing, right?
I think you're somebody with a lot of love and you have you treat your family like the treasure that they are. You treat the people in your life like the treasure that they are. And I think you want to have that kind of beautiful life, you know, um, uh, that's that seems like a dream come true, a picture perfect kind of thing. You really have an ideal of the of the love and the connection and the meaning and purpose and the satisfaction in your life. This is the goal for you. This is the ideal life. Okay.
Now, we're going to talk about the path of the serpent. And as we do this, I would like to ask for your subscription. If you haven't subscribed, please do. And if this is resonating with you, hit that like button for me. All right. With the six of cups here, you are somebody that that wants to have um that sense of family and community. Okay. And I think that you treat people very kindly. You treat people like family. You're somebody with a lot of love, like I said. And I think when you're not when you don't get that support back, it's um it's difficult to deal with, you know, it's difficult to to kind of accept that, you know, um who's the family member that always has the like the pocket knife. Like someone's always got a knife in their pocket. It's like a I don't know if it's like a folding knife or like a utility knife or like a Swiss Army kind of thing. Um but someone's always always got maybe it's you, but someone always has that. They're like they're always prepared um with that pocket knife. Um the six of cups is family and community and resonance and harmony. And this is this is you. This is your general energy. You have the the skill and the talent and the desire and just the energy of family. I think that people do feel very connected to you. people feel a sense of love and and safety in your presence. I think that you're someone who likes to do nice things for people, you know, like you're probably a really good giftgiver. Um you seem to give people what they want, what they need when they need it. And um you you treat people like family. And I think that it's it's a big um a big part of your energy. you have a really big heart and it's very welcoming. It's very open and I think sometimes you don't really you don't feel the reciprocity. Okay. You you do little kind things, little gestures for other people. Sometimes they don't notice, you know, and that's okay. But I think it's it's a little bit more devastating when you you treat other people in such a loving way, but then you don't feel that you're supported when you kind of need like either just some encouragement or you just need some love or you just need some um some positive reinforcement or something like this. Okay, you're somebody that wants again, you want to have that feeling of of love and connection in your life. Yeah, you want to resonate with everyone. And um well, with the nine of swords, I don't think it's always I don't think it always works that way, but the six of cups is a card of pleasure, okay? And it is a card of you enjoying pleasure and enjoying the nice things in life. Enjoy. I think you like to enjoy the finer things in life. Um I think you have a you have a style about you. You have preferences for things. You like certain kinds of food. You like certain kinds of indulgences. Um you like to look at particular kinds of art. You you like particular kinds of music. I feel like you have a very very good taste. Yeah, I feel like you have very good taste. Um and uh well the nine of swords in the environment in your relationships it seems like there is some separation between you and some loved ones or maybe one loved one could be maybe there's a cancer person. Um it feels like there is some distance. Yeah, I just feel like I feel like you're very warm and loving and something's cold and distant. Okay. And um I think that there's a um there's kind of a discouragement or an anxiety in your life, especially with whatever whatever efforts you're doing, whatever you're putting in work toward right now in your life. It feels like there is kind of a almost like a tendency toward doom and gloom. There's a tendency to not always believe in yourself, but I think that our squirrel here says you got to believe in yourself. Okay. And um I think uh I think that you're somebody that is very aware of your your thoughts. I think sometimes you get into your head a little bit um and you overthink things or you can sometimes read too much into other things. Spirit's telling you right now, don't take personally anything that anybody else around you does. Don't take it personally. And I think that you're kind of getting that awareness that you need to rely on yourself at this time and rely on spirit. Okay. The nine of swords can be a rude awakening. It can be suddenly we're seeing the truth about things. Okay. And I think that there is a push toward more independence for you and maybe it's the realization that what you've been so generous with has been taken for granted and um kind of saying, "Okay, I you know, I don't need to engage with that type of relationship anymore." Um, I think this is also your this is also your ability to look at the future and to think okay if we if things could end in disaster I need to slow down and prevent that. Okay, we have the nine and the nine here. I think your strength is to slow down and be cautious and be prudent even when there is a lot of anxiety um toward kind of like what you're doing. There's high pressure. It feels like there is um it feels like there is a I don't know feels like there's an oppo opponent. It feels like there's an enemy or something that's there. And so it gives us this this kind of anxiety. And I don't know if if you're feeling intimidated by something or if there is some kind of external pressure that's coming in, somebody telling you to hurry up or like there's just some kind of negative energy that's trying to make its way to you. Okay. But I think that you are doing your very best to be kind of self-contained right now. And that really is our chariot. Yeah. The Chariot is very self-contained here and is saying, "Look, I'm driving the Chariot. You've got your armor on." Okay. Um, this is the card that's in the position of the fear and worry and concern. I think there's a fear of not making progress. There's a fear of not getting to the finish line, of not succeeding. There's a fear of not creating the happy life that we want. And I think that fear is kind of in a way working for you. And the nine of swords is some of that fear as well, right? And I think that if we have that fear of like not making the progress or not succeeding, we have to use that to slow down and to double check your work and that sort of thing, right? To to show our strength by self-restraint. Um, and I think that, you know, it's it's the chariot. It's about learning how to use the gas and the brake. Yeah. And it's realizing that what you're doing is very significant and very precious. So, we don't want to make we don't want to do anything that could jeopardize that. Okay. Now, the chariot is also a card that suggests family. It suggests that you are always the one holding everything together. I feel like you're somebody with a lot of loyalty, a lot of devotion. Um, don't let that loyalty and that devotion kind of derail what you're trying to accomplish in your life right now because this is your time, okay? This is something that's really huge for you. And I feel like there's just this pressure, this almost like there's a guilt that you're finally doing something for yourself or you're trying to you're trying to better yourself or you're trying to evolve, you're trying to grow, you're doing some self-development or something. And and I feel that there's just this almost like this pressure or this this guilt or something that's saying you should be just just get back to work, you know? Um, but I think that you're always the one that that took care of everybody else. And this is almost like a like a hedge against entropy. That is kind of like the wolf's always at the door. Something's always nipping at your heels. And living in that kind of anxiety, there's no time to like breathe, you know? There's no breathing room. there's no time to kind of to observe and to be mindful, you know, because it's just kind of like we're we're always in this kind of high anxiety mode. So, I feel like your nervous system has been on rather high alert lately. And I think that the message here is that we need to just we need to get rid of that the source of that anxiety, whatever it might be. Okay? Okay. If it's a I think it's a particular family dynamic or a dynamic with somebody, maybe it's not exactly family. Um, but it's not allowing you to pay. It's almost like when you're living in a constant state of anxiety, you're going to make a lot of mistakes with just doing simple things. Do you know what I mean? And this card is kind of like we're always in that armor. We're always like in the middle of a battlefield. So, it's not easy for us to like slow down and really pay attention and really look and really learn and be mindful and and diligent with the paperwork, you know. Um, now the four of cups is kind of exactly that that we're allowing our nervous system to calm down that there's um there's breathing room, there's space. Now, you know, this is kind of like we're taking shelter from the storm a little bit. I think there is a source of high anxiety in your life and this is you taking intentionally some time away from that. You're somebody that knows how to relax. you're somebody that knows the value of like a a bubble bath, you know, um of kind of taking care of yourself, calming down, soothing that nervous system so that you don't end up like making some mistakes or, you know, doing something impulsive or doing something hasty. In a way, it feels like the Knight of Wands is sort of reacting to the anxiety and that's not really the way to go. If we can calm things down with that four of cups and get into that storm kind of shelter, then I think we can observe and we can look and we can be patient and we can make sure we understand what our next moves need to be. And um I think that's going to really make a difference in in whatever work, whatever efforts, whatever project or endeavor you're involved with right now. Okay.
Let's look at the mystery card. Yeah, mystery card. Um, I feel like it's going to be another four to be honest with you. Let's take a look. Well, it's the moon card. Okay, the moon card suggesting that maybe we don't know exactly what the next step is going to be yet. And so we can um we we should perhaps slow down and double check everything and um and look for clarity, find clarity. You know, maybe we wait for clarity. Yeah, it could be cuz all this fire energy is saying that we're just going, we're rushing. We're pushing forward. There's urgency. There's action. But if there's a fog in front of us, maybe the best thing is to slow down. I don't know if you've ever driven in heavy fog before. I have in California. And the biggest thing or even any kind of bad weather, right? What do you do? You slow down. When there's bad weather, when you can't when the visibility is limited, you slow the heck down. It's like rule number one. And I think that's what's going on here is that there is something that is now causing some high anxiety. And the best thing to do is to slow down so that you can assess your situation and figure out your next move. You can find clarity. You can find a path forward through the fog. It might be slower, but you want to get to that 10 of cups. You don't want to do anything that's going to like derail your progress or like drive you off the road. So, we slow down. Okay. I think the message is very clear here.
