sh1njuk1 Me card: I decided to take this card as a suggestion, and so threw myself into taking care of the last round of paperwork for the job next week, not least setting up the payroll software and direct deposit and so forth. Well... I started going through their task list from the top of the page... and read through about 10,000 words of legalese only for the website to crash on me the moment I was about to sign the bottom of the page. GREAT. I also spent incredible effort in the afternoon getting a pair of shoes, during which I had a truly depressing conversation with the proprietor (I go to small local shops for these things as a rule) about how she and her husband and dog almost died during the latest heat wave, as they can't afford air conditioning. I am pretty sure that shop will not be there by the time the pair I just bought wears out. Material focus sucks! :(
Situation: I felt a tension going about today, both as my dad's friends came tromping through the house and as I drove around on roads that felt very dangerous to deliver my last bag of plums to the outskirts of the city.
Outcome: I'll fully admit, the Empress card baffles me. The closest I can guess is that the lady who filled up my gas tank at the end of the day was much, much kinder than she needed to be, for working a minimum wage job and standing out in the broiling heat with a mask on.
So today's divination does not seem to be all that accurate - which is interesting! That hasn't happened in a while.
And that's where I stopped writing yesterday, because I realized that between my recent epic battle against my own family on the astral plane, all the general hectic-ness of recent life and a wart treatment I did on Monday, I am completely exhausted. I've been getting messages - from my own body, from people I've talked with, and from the cards themselves (as I look at them after a great night's sleep!) that I need to slow down and refocus. So I did that in the most basic way, by dropping divination cold and sleeping deeply without Nyquil for the first time in over a week. And for the rest of the day today, whatever the cards may bring... I'm going to stick close to home, putter about doing simple chores, and refocus on my spiritual path.
Okay, and with that, let's divinate for today.
Me: 3 of Spades - "disappointment, a loss, separation" or perhaps my period will finally come??
Situation: 6 of Clubs (The Tower) REVERSED - Some problem will come up that you can manage
Outcome: 8 of Diamonds - Comfort achieved through hard work
This divination feels better... the Me card feels like an acknowledgement of where I am right now, with my shaky health and depleted energy. I appreciate that whatever comes up today (there's always something) will be manageable. And I couldn't have ordered up a more preferable Outcome card. So... let's take it easy today, and work towards healing! :)
