Merry meet, dear readers. Before you continue, take note: Tarot is for everyone, no matter your walk of life. While the cards have their own singular meanings, tarot is also largely intuitive and the meanings can change; no two tarot readers read the same way. This is a generalized reading, so take only what resonates with you and discard the rest.
There are decisions that are coming due and answers that still need found. This isn’t something you take lightly and it is best that you give it the necessary attention to get to the bottom of the matter, the answers you seek so that you can move forward.
In that note, if you’re feeling frustrated and things aren’t clear, seek out your support network and speak to those you know or feel could give you insight to your solution. If you have parental or mentor figures you trust, go to them. Trust yourself that you can get to the heart of the matter at hand, get the clarity you need in order to make these decisions. Make sure you’re looking at the whole picture and not being short sighted and soon you’ll have what you need and things will take off with new enthusiasm, with the trust in yourself and where you’re going.
Be warned, though, that actions have consequences. Whether those consequences will help or hinder is up to you.
I hope you find something for yourself in this reading, reader. May your days be filled with love and light, even when it all feels too much; and remember to always be kind. Merry part, and merry meet again! Blessed be.
