Ok, I'm a novice, but this is what I'm getting....
Card 1 - Influences, atmosphere 8 pentacles
You are learning a craft, which is undoubtably hard work. mistakes are made and your confidence in your skill fluctuates with each mistake and success.
Card 2 - Obstacles SUN
You want to be top-notch in what you are doing, you want to shine. As an obstacle, I would believe this to indicate that perhaps you should have more pride in what you are doing. Perhaps you are feeling like you cannot live up to an expectation, there is someone you feel who "does it better"
Card 3 - Past Influences Queen of Wands
In the past you became inspired to pursue a new path, perhaps a new career? I would think that someone, a Woman, caused this cnage in you. She is successful and happy, and you want to be like her in that sence.
Card 4 - Past Events the World
Also in the past, an event happened where you felt like it is all within reach. the world is yours. a new opportunity. one cycle of your being is wrapping up, and a new one beginning.
Card 5 - Future Events 2 of Swords
You will have to balance the mind, perhaps your own thoughts will conflict with eachother, or someone else's thoughts (it is an event, so this seems more likely). It is not long lived thought. compromise for a bit.
Card 6 - Future Influences Knight of Pent
You may decide to hold what you are doing to yourself for a while, in secret. You will be making progress, Knights are active. Change is in the air, Though you might be the only one who notices at first.
Card 7 - How querent affects the world 7 cups
You cannot decide on how to affect the world. With so many options opening up, you are lost in daydream.
Card 8 - How the world affects the querent Empress
(nice placement!)Your surroundings are nurturing you to grow. I would say that you are probably feeling vulnerable in regards to your new pursuits and will find comfort in your travels.
Card 9 - Hopes or Fears 3 of cups
You are hoping that when you do accomplish what you desire, it will be celebrated by those you care about. With the hope, comes the fear that nobody will acknowlege your success.
Card 10 - Outcome Ace of Pent
Definately the start of something here, I have been taught that aces start the trend for a new year. So, over the next year, you will be working hard on the physical plane, perhaps a new job? You just want to be where you are, doing what you love.
