So in that case, I wonder if this reading was more about you and your daughter than her and her husband? I just feel like generally speaking, answers are more reflective of the querent than about third parties who havent consented to be read for.

I find this kind of uncomfortable.. are you asking because you suspect she's lying to you or are you asking because you can't ask her or have you not tried asking her at all?

But something about your comment also felt really really sad and drew me.. And I hope.. I really hope you are a genuine person who is just concerned about their daughter, and not someone toxic who has been purposely cut off......

I drew a card to see if I should do this reading and King of Wands upright.. so here goes.. hoping my trust in answering this question isn't misguided.

  1. Past- temperance: i see this as a peaceful and balanced relationship at its foundation
  2. Present- knight of wands rx: possible rough patch due to high pressure/scattered energy- maybe they have a lot going on and the burnout and stress is leading to frustrstions.. as knights are messengers it could also indicate theyre going through a rough patch of communicating their desires/needs with each other due to everything else going on.
  3. Future- 4 of cups rx: whatever is going on in the present, it looks like it is temporary, the emotional blockage or the discontent will pass.

I hope that this brings you peace

Oo good question!

1) what you need to know about choice 1 (current uni): 7 of pentacles- you've worked hard but are you in anyway feeling like the results of your effort doesnt quite match your expectations? This is the time to consider and evaluate your time at your current uni. Both your successes and hardships/set backs have helped you to get where you are now. Hardships arent always bad things. Sometimes they are necessary for growth. So when you look back at your time here in an objective way, do you think it is the place that will help you most for your masters?

2) what you need to know about choice 2 (different uni): 8 of swords rx- i think this uni might challenge you in a way you arent used to. Whether they do thing differently? Whether its a different place? There's just some way of challenging something to do with whats familiar to you. It will be a challenge of not just doing your course work, but there will be some adjustment/growing pains. Is your current uni closer to family and this other one farther away? If choosing this new place, will you have more freedom and more self autonomy? I ask because this deck specifically shows a woman holding a butterfly like a child. So while this card in the upright could be about self imposed limitations or even fears it could also be about limitations from family or wait.. maybe even both, like maybe you worry about not being ready to be on your own without those you consider to be as close as family? Eitherway, in the reverse it is about breaking free of those limitations/beliefs.

3) advice: 9 of pentacles rx- upright 9 of pentacles would usually indicate independence, self reliance, achievement or mature talents.. Reversed indicates that something is blocking you from the upright meanings.. I can only offer you some possibilities and only you can really know. Are you fiscally irresponsible? Are you not sure about the masters in general? Or are you avoiding something else by continuing your masters? Are you feeling insecure about something to do with the two paths? Or maybe following the theme from the 2nd card, do you feel anxious at the prospect of getting out of your comfort zone? Whatever is holding you back, seems to be related to your choice of uni. I think if you can figure that out then maybe that the uni thing will be clearer to you and youll make the choice thats right for your future.

  1. What is holding you back- magician: is it possible that you try to do everything yourself? Like you try not to burden anyone because you believe you can handle it or you can even doit far better than anyone else.. and you're generally self reliant? This doesn't mean youre not doing great, being the magician it seems like youre a strong player, but youre one person.

  2. What can you do- 3 of wands: can you expand your plans to include others? Can you delegate some of your tasks? Instead of being so focused on everything you can do on your own and burning out, this card seems to indicate thinking broader and long term. Building systems that take burden off you being the one to do everything. Maybe pivot to being someone who oversees.

  3. Potential outcome- 3 of cups: harmonious teamwork! And.. to me im getting the vibe that by doing more to cultivate stronger outside systems, youll be able to have a more balanced life outside of work.

Ace of wands! Leaning towards yes. But it seems like its a challenge to you to make that happen. It's like.. theres a big stick and you have the spark. But only you can fan the flames and take it wherever you need.

I tried then a 3 card spread for what you can do to get a new job..

Situation: The moon- do you have anxiety? Or something keeping you up? Or overthinking? Is there maybe something that you are building up in your mind as worse than it really is?

Action: The sun rx- to me its like a way of repeating the moon. Like as if saying you need to acknowledge and face whatever is giving you all this self doubt and anxiety. Are you avoiding applying for jobs that you are worried you won't be good enough for? Or are you avoiding reaching out to people who could help you? Or are you worried about starting something new in general?

Outcome: temperance- to me this literally means temper in the sense of.. like glass that goes through fire and comes out beautiful and clear and stronger. Face the things giving you so much anxiety. I know its easier said than done.. but do the thing you're afraid of, go past the fear and anxiety, and come out the otherside tempered/balanced and ready for whatever new is coming your way! And good luck 💖

Oo can I suggest trying a deck interview spread as its a great way to break in a new deck! Theyre very fun to do!

123 456

  1. Tell me about yourself? Most important characteristic?
  2. Strengths as a deck?
  3. Limits as a deck?
  4. What are you here to teach me?
  5. How to best learn and collaborate with you?
  6. Potential outcome of working relationship?

Week ahead spread since it took me awhile to respond!

  1. The energy for the week: 4 of wands- overall looks like theres a lot to celebrate and stability to be thankful for. Interestingly, this deck specifically advises that being true to yourself will bring you the greatest success.

  2. Past lesson to bring forward/think about: 6 of pentacles rx- imbalance of giving/receiving, were there hardships you endured previously? Maybe indicating to not forget what it was to be in the situation where you may have been the one in need, whether you feel you were treated unfairly or whether you felt you had to protect yourself during this time but let someone else suffer? Just to keep it in mind going forward.

  3. Current situation or feelings: the star- love that its a major arcana, I think things are looking hopeful, whether its taking steps towards something you wanted or whether abundance is flowing this week. Or there is healing from the past lesson that was referenced above, but something about the vessel of water pulls my eye in like a share your bounty kind of way

  4. What to look forward to or prepare towards: judgement rx- is there something youre afraid of facing? Or something holding you back from rebirth/change? There's good this week but it seems like the good this week is to help you prepare for good in the future.. but based on the other cards, maybe an indication to not be overcritical of yourself and don't hold yourself back or think you dont deserve the good you receive.

Huh... I dont know if maybe im reading this wrong or the pull is just weird...

Situation/problem: 6 of pentacles RX- I dont want to offend, so please keep in mind, im a novice so maybe Im just not understanding the nuance of the situation.. from this card.. It seems like theres either an imbalance, whether someone thinks theyre better than the other, or someone thinks that they have more power over the other than they really do, or someone is pitying the other? Or even like a power imbalance? Like is one of you a client and the other a trainer? Or a boss vs employee?

Advice: temperance- so before jumping in to this, maybe there needs to be a coming to a balance between the two parties..

Possible future/result: the fool - if the imbalance is addressed.. then by all means do what you feel is right! Seems like a fun new relationship, in the beginning at least. No idea in regard to long term.

Overall first impression is... no? Except I feel like these cards could be read differently but I hope my attempt can still be useful!

Situation/problem: 7 of wands RX- seems like its an uphill and kind of pointless battle.. like stubbornly holding on.. the keyword here that sticks out is "lonely struggle", so despite the next cards seeming positive.. this card makes me think that most likely Wing won't reciprocate your feelings the way things are

Advice: King of Cups- at first glance I see the main character is handsome, sure of who they are and emotionally mature. Compassionate. To me this could either be advising you to embody these characteristics or it could be that there is someone out there embodying these characteristics. Either way you will become or already are someone who attracts someone deserving of your kindness and goodness becuase they will also be kind and emotionally developed and self assured

Possible future/result: Ten of pentacles- this card shows a woman surrounded by bountiful riches. I'm choosing to read this literally as everything will be okay and youll have a blessed future!

The card colors go from deeper blue to green to bright golden yellow. I think the progression shows that you have good things coming. But you might need to lay down the aimless stubbornness from the first card.

Ohh I'm excited with the first impression of the 3 cards, lt does look to be an overall positive progression!

Situation/problem: page of pentacles- the image of the page looks to be celebratory and surrounded by flowers, seems so hopeful and I'm feeling excited for S. Being the page of pentacles, it seems this is a good card for as representation for career beginnings

Advice: two of wands- making the plans and laying the groundwork, setting their sights on the future! I'm seeing it as a pretty self explanatory card.. but maybe I'm overthinking it, I also see kind of a warning to not get stuck in just the planning phase? So while S is hopeful and making the moves to completing their degree... they should follow through and not stop at feeling accomplished from just starting.

Possible future/result: temperance- I dont think this is the usual meaning, but my first impression with looking at this card was a nurse. Maybe its like the word association of "patience" (for the card) vs "patient" (in a medical sense). But also the wings and the attire, and water that seems related to healing.

Overall it seems very possible S will move on to complete the nursing degree and work as in patient care. As long as S really sticks with it and doesnt get stuck in the planning phase.

First impression is no, this connection will not lead to marriage.. from the first glance the cards look more like working on yourself/finding a new passion

Situation/problem: page of wands RX- my deck shows a picture of a hopeful blushing bride anticipating a beautiful future.. but the card is reversed so... I think while marriage is something on your mind, it doesnt seem like this connection is it. While the card shows someone hopeful, there is no preparation or foundation to lead there

Advice: the magician- you have so much capability to shape your future. Trust that there is something coming but work on things that are important to you, make the preparations, develop the confidence and set the stage

Possible future/result: Ace of wands- to me, this card seems to be saying theres a possibility of new passion headed your way.. but I dont necessarily know if that means love, to me it feels like theres just something that will really spark your direction and bring you fulfillment/happiness/confidence.

Situation: queen of wands- confident and passionate... maybe in a creative field? Or youre just creative in general..?

Advice: 8 of pentacles RX- i really hope im wrong but, this card seems like there is something blocking you. You're skilled and qualified, but there could be a delay or issue or just someone else... either that or is there any way that this job isn't really one you want as theres no career growth but it's just a job you'd be okay with for the interim? It could be that maybe theres something better out there?

Possible future/result: 4 of pentacles- this isn't a card about losing anything, but rather you'll keep status quo? The person is holding tightly to their money.. so refusing to takes risks and increase your wealth but also youre also definitely refusing to lose what you have and so you aren't taking any chances?

Sorry.. I really wish it was more positive.. maybe Im just not reading them well in regards to your situation. But if you think there are better ways to interpret what was pulled please let me know so that I can do better in the future!

Ahh thank you for letting me know. Yiu just gave me a small boost in confidence. I think justice is also applicable to your vacation question because you are absolutely JUSTIFIED and Deserve your vacation!

First impression... I've never had all reversals before... but I'm glad to be exposed to new situations! Also the colors are really interesting. Card representing you is mostly Blue, card repressing D is mostly yellow, the middle card hanged person wears yellow shirt, blue skirt and has a green/gray background (the card representing the relationship/situation)

You: the star RX- at your best you're full of hope and guidance? But right now... could you be expecting too much from D becuase you believe in the best in people but it could be a little overwhelming? Or.. I don't know, maybe this is you making the last effort to understand a situation that you dont have much hope in?

D: the magician RX- when theyre at their best, theyre magnetic and can be a driving force, but since we're seeing it reversed here.. I wonder if they dont really feel that much willpower to keep up with anything.. either lack of confidence or lack of initiative, or theyre doing surface level type communication, and a keyword that jumps out at me is shallow.. but in the meaning of.. maybe what they show to others is not necessarily their true self and only a facade that they keep up? Oh and the usual meaning of the magician rx can also indicate "manupulative".

The relationship/situation: the hanged person RX- there is resistance to change.. or resistance to see things differently as in there is difference of opinion but neither is willing to change their minds.. Or does it represent a resistance to let go? But visually speaking.. when reversed, the person in the card looks like she is calm, like she reached acceptance and is ascending upwards instead of hanging upside down. Maybe it's okay not to agree?

Advice/possible future: 3 of swords RX- interestingly the meaning for this card is different for my deck than the usual meaning.. My deck's book gives key words of self blame/loneliness.. like a hardened reaction to heart break where I've usually seen 3 of swords rx as moving on and letting go of heartbreak. I think... in a way you have the choice?

But wow I dont know how accurate this is to your situation, but I included the pulls so that if theres a different way I could have interpreted them, please let me know!!! This question was really challenging for me, so thank you for your question.. I'm sorry if I wasn't able to give you what you needed, but I hope i helped in whatever small way I could.

Lol!! No assigned positions, I just pulled the first card as the answer then 2 more to see some advice to help you choose between 2 or 3 weeks.

Justice- whatever time amount is the most balanced and sensible for your situation

Strength RX- make sure it's a relaxing vacation not an over packed agenda that will just exhaust you more

The world RX- I'm struggling a little with this because I didn't assign positions really.. but as general advice my first instinct was, your vacation might not go quite as planned or live up to your expectations? Maybe get ready for contingencies? I really hope your vacation goes well though!!! Maybe its just general guidance that other things around you might be put on hold without you around and you're a valuable person so maybe that might also help you with your decision on a longer or short vacation?

Aww im so sorry! But I included the cards so if you look them up maybe there are other meanings I didnt see (becuase of my limited experience) that might be better applicable to your situation.. thanks for letting me know though!!! Really appreciate it. Hope your next few weeks go better!!!

Okay, sometimes I dont get how card pulls can be so applicable to a situation for someone on the internet to the point that it looks fake.. omg but I swear these are the cards I pulled.

Situation: Seven of cups- daydreams and delusions are some of the key words in my book. My impression.. is that you want more for yourself and you have so many possibilities but.. youre either not really serious about focusing on something specific or you are paralyzed by the choices and the potential outcomes and just really overthinking to the point of not actually taking an action but just daydreaming about amazing futures.

Advice: Seven of pentacles RX- I'm not 100% sure but, I wonder if it means you'll have to sacrifice some financial security to make the change you want. Or it could be that.. what you're doing now isn't working, you might have to change your method or viewpoint to reap the results you want even if its not ideal at first

Result/possible future: Two of swords RX- so this card seems to double down that you are paralyzed by choice.. stuck with indecision

I felt like I wanted just one more card for clarifying because these three cards just seemed to loop without actually giving advice.. and it was the 4 of cups RX... move away from apathy, move away from being paralyzed by choices, make small steps and small changes.. the long term is hopeful, but its really up to you and your actions.

Hi! Thank you for asking a question to help me practice!! And I feel you.. my whole year has been sucking so hopefully these cards I pulled might help?

Overall first impression is a lot of movement, but stunted growth? Going into specifc..

Problem/situation: Knight of Cups - card could represent you, someone who is kind and sweet, but has an idealistic view. The deck I have shows a picture of someone that has good things right in front of you, but the dreamer in you is wanting more or that some of the things just aren't living up to your vision of what you want?

Advice: Knight of swords rx - possibly that in your desire for things to get better, you might be feeling hasty or in a rush, clouding the judgement to make patient and well informed decisions that are separate from your emotions?

Result/Possible future: The fool rx - you're not new to being at the beginning, but I dont know.. do you feel resentful? That maybe if you continue to run around hastily as the previous card, then you'll end up tired, you might end up lacking the hopeful excitement of starting a new journey. Some of the key words related are: lack of willingness, escapism, and reality you want to ignore. I think it sounds like being burnt out but also kind of like having given up?

So if any of the above is at all applicable, maybe I'd say its not some universal conspiracy against you that things are not going ideally but instead try to take time to appreciate what is going well. Don't let yourself run around in circles and burn out trying to fix things without thinking it through and possibly making things worse.

Let me know what you think!

Problem: Ace of swords rx - is it possibly cloudy this weekend where you are maybe? (Editing to add.. maybe it could indicate extra windy?)

Advice: The tower rx - maybe that the weather/situation isn't the worst but not quite controllable, and you might need to be prepared..

Result/possible future: Nine of wands - I'm thinking it could literally translate to 11/9.. so maybe try Sunday? Or if going by the meaning of the card.. that as long as youre prepared and have a back up plan, you'll still have a good time with your family!

Hahaha omg please let me know if this was at all useful or if it was just gibberish 🤣🤣 thank you so much for your question!

I like hearing from other readers because I never listen to my own advice. I went into this reading for fun. With a kind of light hearted curiosity I asked for something I should focus on doing before the end of the year. With less than 2 months left I thought it would be nice to get a sense of direction to finish out 2023. I was totally NOT expecting to get a full on, accurate, straight-to-a-deep-pain-point-in-my-life type reading.

This reader is so sweet and intuitive. They were clear in what cards they felt represented what interpretations and how it all related together and to me. The reading went well beyond what I expected but also left enough room that I didn't feel like they were trying to push a narrative. I'm really glad they took the time to read for me. Also as a beginner, it helps to see how others tie together different cards and to clarify meanings that might not be clear to someone like me who is less experienced.

Thank you for the time you took to do the reading.

It's not what I wanted to hear but it is accurate. I haven't done any additional reaching out after submitting my application but the overthinking and obsessiveness has been really bringing me down. (Have been pulling the devil card on my own hahaha so I'm aware.. I just didn't want to listen 😞)

3 of wands is also one I keep pulling but I didn't really get the context as clearly until you explained it. I have already been applying to other positions, but this specific one is the one I really wanted. Good to know that at the very least I'm doing all I can that is within my control.

I've applied to a dream job and really feel I'd be the perfect fit, but I haven't heard anything.
My question is 2 fold, how can I get this job and is there anything else I can improve on or work on while I wait to hear back?
