Hello Peach,Sorry it got delayed! I had to look after something quite urgent.
Here's your reading:
As I was shuffling, Justice and the 3 of Wands fell out.
I see this as a form of karmic balancing, something that you probably have foreseen in a sense.
Mark is very smart and skillful, knows what he wants and can come off as a smart alec and territorial at times. He's also generous, and you will very much enjoy his company and may want to even move this into a proper relationship in the future. There would come a time of stagnation and may not know if everything is worth it, questioning if this is what you really want. However, I think you will develop feelings for him and as soon as you realize this, that Karmic balancing theme will begin to plague you once more... certain skeletons will need to come out of the closet and you will experience a time of purging (you will sooner or later need to, in order to create a very fulfilling relationship with anyone). You will have to clear out baggages and ties no longer serving its purpose. There's a huge, huge, potential with Mark here, though as you also probably know, it wouldn't go anywhere if you still cling onto a bond from your past. You're presented with two choices here... but either way, you will need to address some arguments, disappointments, and your duality that's been pulling you in two different directions. You will soon dream a lot usual than before, try to remember every details as it would certainly help you should ever come a time of crossroads appear on the horizon. Right now you're really at the time of assessment about the things that you want and what you don't, what really fulfills you and what only drags you down. Are you happy? Why, or why not? What are the things that you've been putting too much energy onto without getting a fair return? I believe you'll learn a lot of these as you develop a bond with Mark, even just as friends. You'll learn a lot by being with him.
Take the following with a grain of salt, as this is just a nagging feeling that seemed to scream at me if I don't write it out. This isn't necessarily related to the cards that I drew, but I dunno why I keep getting that you will really develop strong feelings for Mark... something that may even be greater than the guy from your past. This is just a hunch though, but I was strongly compelled to write it somehow. But as usual, let things flow naturally on their own and don't sweat it out.
Cards: Magician, 5 of Swords, 10 of Pentacles, 7 of Pentacles, Empress, Justice (again), Queen of Cups, 6 of Cups, Devil, Moon
Hope it helps... keep us updated should anything happen. Blessings! xx
EDIT: I forgot to consider about the post about your situation at work. But in the long run, I feel it wouldn't even matter for you. Just tell him the things that concerns you and he'll surely respect it. Just have fun!
