Hi

I did a tarot reading for myself regarding a second part-time job that I will be starting next week. It has taken me about 6months to find a job in this industry and hope that this will be what I have aspired for sooo long. I am only able to understand the cards individually and not when it is combined with others. Hoping an expert can shed better light to my question. Thanks so much in advance.

The question is will I be happy here and I got:

PAST: JUDGEMENT - end of cycle, new change and opportunities or career coming, take it.

PRESENT: 6 PENTACLES (R) watch spending, unethical behaviour of partner or (boss)??? concerned about self interest.

FUTURE: 3 SWORDS - disappointment or loss???

ANSWER: EMPERESS - hard work and creativity can lead to a spiritual awakening,

SURROUNDING ENERGY: 8 CUPS (R)
Negative - There may be on over attachment to one’s past.
Positive - Indicates that you have successfully put the past behind you

HOPES & FEARS: SUN (R) - Delays with success and limitations to happiess.

OUTCOME: LOVERS - It typically suggests that an important life choice must be made. (I love the sight of this card but there are so many meanings.)

Looks like u already have the answers. If it was a general reading yes u blend them to tell a story. Here u have listed what each card position means. No need to blend it all. Read each card as it is per card position. 3 of swords can sometimes indicate a loss but its more about heartache. U just hafta wait and c how it plays out. The thing is, its not an ending card. With the final outcome as the lovers, u will b facing a choice u hafta make later on. So u have future card and then a final outcome at the end.....u may experience the heartache b4 u r faced with the choice, whatever it may b. I'm not familar with that spread used. Its not necessarily a bad reading tho. Here u have lots of insight into the future situation if u stay on the path ur on now.

I used a 7card horseshoe layout I found in a book:

1................................7
.....2.....................6
.........3...........5
...............4

1. Past
2. Present
3. Future
4. Answer
5. Surrounding Energy
6. Hopes and Fears
7. Outcome

Though I did lay the cards out in a straight line instead of a horseshoe shape.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated. My question was 'What is my future like at this company?'

Thanks

Okay, my take is

The Empress here means that you will enjoy the abundance and financial stability that this work will bring, but the 3 of Swords indicates some minor disappointments. Maybe you won't feel like this is the right job for you, possibly too mentally stressful?

The outcome being The Lovers may mean that you will have another job offer and you'll have to think really hard whether to stay or go.

That's just my take though and I hope it helped you somewhat

Do you still have that other job? Maybe that's the choice The Lovers indicates. You'll have to let go one of the jobs.

Thank you. Yes interpreting individually is easy but as I have seen many interpretations where tarot reading suggest to look at the surrounding cards and overall picture and not just individually and wasn't sure if I have missed the actual meaning.

What I have always wondered is have or will I make the right choice????

That makes sense, especially the mentally stressful part.....

Job 1 was offered to me about a month and a half ago, but I didn't start work until last week. This is only short-term office job working during their peak period.

Job 2 (the industry I would like to pursue) I will start next week....I have the qualifications but not the experience and after 6months hunting for such job I am excited and a little nervous. As this is a small company, I think I will be required to wear many hats. Have I confused you yet...lol

Thanks

For me this is a chance that I have been waiting for.
