Just one please.

I'm sort of adrift when it comes to career. I have a job I enjoy (sort of), it's just not in the field I want. Steady steps are being taken to get to where I want to be, but I feel like I'm stagnating. I have some irons in the fire, and I guess I'd just like to know what would come of them? Or where I'm headed and what I need to do to get to where I want to be?

Or however you want to read all of that fine mess up above.

Thanks in advance. (I can also try Lenormand if you want, but I'm not as good at those yet!)

Awesome! Did you have a question I could work on for you? Or did you just want a general reading?

Are any of Becca's current career prospects going anywhere?

Moon - Eight of Swords - 3 of Pentacles

I think this is saying that your thoughts are really scattered with these different " irons in the fire." The eight of swords to me is being overwhelmed mentally, to the point you feel restricted. Maybe that you should focus on one or two and work to make it grow? Because the Three of Pents is definitely about growing , especially in my deck, in my deck it shows a man and a woman happily catering to a tree, the tree growing, all be it slowly. So yes, i do think that one of them is deifnitely going somewhere, but only if you focus more mentally on that one specific endeveaour. In my tarot book , the three of disks is even associated with the phrase "completing and focusing on a task will result in a job well done." There IS success to be had here.


Where is Beccas career headed in the near future?

Eight of swords - Temperance - Knight of Wands

Again, with the eight of swords! Although i pulled it first, so while i think this problem may plague you for a bit longer, youll notice Temperance quickly follows. I think that you're gonna get the hang of balance, and finally find mental harmony which will open many doors. This card flat out shows your creative energy is going to flow effortlessly and mental clarity is soon to follow! As for the knight of wand sin this equation, maybe a man will enter into your situation and change things? Knights tend to not be as mature as kings, so i dont see someone " higher" up in a career field, but maybe he will come in a offer a fresh perspective on your situation? Get the ball rolling, per say!

Please tell me if any of this resonates!

Current situation: 3 of Pentacles
Conflicting/complimenting factor: 10 of Pentacles
Root cause of situation: Wheel of Fortune

Relevant past: 5 of Wands (r)
How querent feels about situation: World
Immediate present: 10 of Cups

How querent feels/wants to feel about self: 7 of Swords
Environment: Queen of Pentacles
Advice: Judgment
Probable outcome: Page of Pentacles (with clarifying card of 9 of Cups)

Were you in a workplace romance? Or is this situation you're in right now feel more like a business transaction than a relationship? Like you're building something long lasting, but that's devoid of deep, encompassing love? I ask, because pentacles are work cards (both professional and personal), and there's a lot of them here.

I have to say that I'm really confused and frustrated. This spread has a really strong "high/low" vibe. When it's good, it's safe and strong and comforting, but when it's bad, it's jealous and argumentative and cold. The Wheel of Fortune colors it in a "whatever happens, happens" mood. Like when you got together, it was, "Why the hell not?" Mutual attraction but not mutual passion. It's a little hard for me to find my footing, honestly.

If I had to call it, this is/was a workplace romance that's gone pretty far. Do you live together or work so closely that you feel like you do? The 5 of Wands (r) makes me think that in the past there was a significant amount of unhealthy competition. Lots of arguments, posturing. Like... if you were lawyers and had to go to a meeting, he/she would constantly try to block you, so they got all the glory. It was hurtful and obnoxious, but more importantly... it made you want to do the same in return.

The World is how you feel about the situation: I think you've realized you can have anything you want, and you're trying to break this cycle. You want the 10 of Cups instead of the 10 of Pentacles. You've chosen love over security. You want happiness over prestige (to a certain degree.) I get the sense that you're someone who feels best when they're financially and emotionally secure, but finances take the lead. I get that from the Queen of Pentacles in the 8th. That said though, the 7 of Swords tells me you're done being taken advantage of, and you're adopting a new attitude where you want to call people on their crap and manipulative tactics. You're over being angry and hurt, and now you want to be strong and independent. The winner.

The advice is Judgment. Just realize that the more you push against something -- the more you try to push a square peg into a round hole -- the harder things will be. Judgment is about freedom and truth, shining a light on the falsehoods and accepting the end. Don't linger on the past. You already know what you need to do -- you can feel it -- now it's just a question of actually doing it, whatever that may be. I get a sense that it's moving on; there are three 10's in the spread, plus Judgment (which is 20). So, essentially there are five 10's in this spread... which suggests you're halfway to being on a truly wonderful path. Of being free from whatever this is that you're in. It's very karmic, this relationship. You're paying a debt back (the three major arcana kind of suggest this.) Just keep pushing and let the Universe exact "justice" on the people who need it. You just work on being the best person you can be. Above it all.

The Page of Pentacles says you'll start again, fresh. A dreamer with a new heart to offer, but in a pragmatic, slow and safe way. The 9 of Cups asks you to go after what your heart wants, but do it for the right reasons. Don't do it to show off or rub it in when you get it. Just be happy you have it and keep listening to your intuition.

God, I hope any of that's right. I haven't read in a long time, and my cat is walking all over the cards, trying to distract me. If not, I can try again (and I'm sorry in advance.) I hope it helps in some way though. Just start paying attention to yourself. Taking care of you. Spread yourself too thin and worry about others, and all you have left is skin that's easily broken. Which isn't you. You're strong, and honestly, a little intimidating. I keep thinking lawyer, or someone with real argumentative skill and power. Lol. Like, you could destroy me with a well-placed glance

Haha, it's funny you keep getting the 8 of Swords. Freaking myself out, tying myself up with my own old fears that I won't be anything or get anywhere. I'm the worst at that it's true. And I definitely think that teamwork and patience is with the 3 of Pentacles. I've recently reached out to some people for help, and I think you're right. Progress will come from that (or at least I hope. The Moon makes everything so scary!)

I think Temperance is just like you said, finding balance. While the Knight could be one of the people who can help me from the 3, I think it could also being saying find balance and then take charge! That knight is all action and gusto. Something I need to learn how to have. It's just scary, haha. I don't know why. Although, I do have a guy looking over a project right now, who is great at his job, but still in the early stages. Maybe it all hinges with him. Who knows? Ahhhhh! I just want some security, lol. I want finite answers, but they aren't to be had. Karma, karma, karma. A major card in each spread. Lol. It's funny actually.

Thanks for this! I appreciate it. It was really spot on and confirmed what I needed to know: stop asking and start doing, you big dumb scardy-cat

"Were you in a workplace romance? Or is this situation you're in right now feel more like a business transaction than a relationship?"
-I have only had one relationship, and it wasnt work/business related. High/ low ? Yes. When he was around and happy it was the bets high ive ever felt. I felt comfort, warmth, love, and happy. But when he left, it felt cold and very very low. He would go distant, and i felt like i wanted it more. Dead on with that!

The 5 of Wands (r) makes me think that in the past there was a significant amount of unhealthy competition. Lots of arguments, posturing"
-We were together a year and a half. There wasnt really any competition. There was no verbal abuse/ putting eachother down when we did argue it was in private, in public we boasted eachother up and bragged, never put eachother down ( even if we were mad).

"The World is how you feel about the situation: I think you've realized you can have anything you want, and you're trying to break this cycle. You want the 10 of Cups instead of the 10 of Pentacles. You've chosen love over security."
-Well, I love him , but he doesnt offer security. I want to break free and find love AND security. I want security very very badly. Security means everything. I want love just as bad though, i want security IN love.

" You're over being angry and hurt, and now you want to be strong and independent. The winner."
-Yes. Yes . Yes. (:

"It's very karmic, this relationship. You're paying a debt back (the three major arcana kind of suggest this.)"
-Yes, id bet all my money its Karmic too. But i dont feel like the debt is paid. At all.

Background : I was in a relationship with a guy, instant chemistry, first everything. I felt incredibly comfortable and happy, and finally found what i wanted. Then he started getting distant. He came back and we were stronger than ever. Discussed engagement. Lived together. It was nice. I was happy. Again , he started getting distant. In november... i got sick of it. I kept trying to get him to talk but he would. December, i ended it. I didnt even get to end it in person. I feel like the book is still open.

Also, he signed up for the same college classes as me back in EARLY december... he fought for them... School starts february 3rd, and i dont know if hes going to show up and how hell treat me. I fear hell show up and be cold.... I keep having nightmares about that, because im really worried thats going to happen. I feel like we have unfinished business.


I really appreciate all of you detail, thank you so so much. Im really struggling with this.

I'm sorry to hear that, and I know that's hard. I should say that general readings are usually for 3 months out. I think maybe that's where some of the arguing will come into play. I think you did the right thing. Someone who can't be constant is not someone you really want. The Page of Pentacles is funny, because it also can be read as an actual, physical student. I think that's maybe where the teamwork thing is going to come into play a bit more. You're at the same school, etc.

I think the Judgment then, given you've already ended it, is going to mean keep it that way. Focus on being a student and working towards that relationship you want. Don't back peddle and get sucked in. I know it's hard, but stick to your guns. You did the right thing, even if you feel like there's something still open (7 of Swords means getting away with something, and in this case, I feel like that's how it's working.)

Thanks for the feedback, and I wish you a lot of luck. Sorry you have to go through it, but it's important. That much I know for sure.
