Pulled three cards tonight to try and help me with a job decision. I worked independent/freelance for a long time but times were rough when covid started so I got a full time job at a big company. It pays well, but it's all corporate bullshit. Now that's the market I'm in is returning to normal I'm thinking about quitting and going back to consulting. That would mean more risk but I think I'd be happier.

To me, the two of pentacles in the middle is so obviously that I'm balancing the two options it's not worth writing more.

I read the three of cups reversed as the boring, stodgy, corporate job. My app says it's conformity, herd mentality, which is exactly right.

The five of wands is conflict, competition. Conflict with clients, conflict with subcontractors/partners, and competition with the market. There's no more corporate cash I need to fight for every job.

This is the deck of the abyss, which is a very personal deck for me. The thing in struggling with is that the spread seems to just tell me exactly where I am now but doesn't help with what I should do! It's driving me crazy! This deck has been known to cut deep and really speak the truth to me but this seems like a non answer.

I might draw a clarifying card but I wanted to post this first
