Stability or Adventure? Part II

I pulled a second reading on Stability or adventure? when I was feeling more on the "adventure" side.

1: Heart of the Matter: 4 Swords Upright: Recovery period, recuperation after a warring state. Seeker has a secret weapon, but may not know it.

Hubby and I had been constantly bickering about stupid crap; bills, chores, the dog, and I just wanted a break!

2: Immediate Obstacles: High Priestess Upright: Intuition, premonition. Spirituality, psychic energy. Keeping secrets. Mysterious.

I couldn't talk to my family about it because I wasn't supposed to tell them we might sell the house and live out of a van. I felt like I couldn't see the forest for the trees, my gut feelings were obscured.

3: Past Influences: The Devil Reversed: Resistance to negative forces, freedom from bondage. Detachment from unhealthy influence, but feeling defeated.

I got sober a number of years ago and got pretty good at not getting sucked into other people's drama, but it really is a bummer detaching.

4: Answer: 9 of Cups Reversed: Wish will not be fulfilled. Setback from over-indulging in material things. Warning to correct pride and vanity.

While I was considering this huge life shift, I was doing it only for the possibility of financial gain from selling the house rather than all the other reasons. My heart wasn't in it, but I wanted that cash! Like I said on the previous post, we eventually decided not to make the move.

Update: There was, indeed, a setback from over-indulging in material things, but it hadn't yet happened when I posted this. There was more going on behind the scenes financially that I was not privy to, and it put this whole #vanlife idea to bed for good! Thank goodness we still have the house 😣

Delinda, Are You There?

This is a reading trying to connect with my 3x great grandma Delinda Fairchild. 2 of Cups: I believe this is showing me that we’re “birds of a feather” and have similar character. It’s two very different birds enjoying the same food and the same environment or ecosystem. Most interestingly, one bird is black, one bird is white; I am white and Delinda was black. A little on the nose, but it struck me. King of Swords: She was a smart and clever woman and had an attitude of authority, a matriarch. The crow is perched on a grave with angel wings against a smoky background: a spirit who has passed on. There are 3 hourglasses: hourglasses normally represent time but I don’t know how it applies. They hold a fish, a heart, and a sword, which I perceive as the gut feeling, the emotions, and the mind working in harmony. Maybe she was intuitive, too? 4 of Pents Rv: I get a sense she was on the defensive a lot of her life. From the ONE vital record I found of her, she lived in rural New York, wido...

Can I strengthen my relationship with my friend?

Short answer: The relationship is fine - solid actually (she's just really busy), get your self-saboteur under control and focus on your new project idea!

I’m a Monster

Q: What can I do to better support my spouse’s new business idea? (Housewives Tarot, of course) 5 of Cups: failure, pessimism Page of Cups Rv: new ideas, doubts, creative block 8 of Cups: disappointment, giving up, fantasy Clarifier: Page of Pentacles: opportunity, skill development, manifestation Rather than answering how I can help, the spread displays my general attitude about his gazillion hobbies and spending too much money on expensive things he will get bored of right away and never use again. I am the one who is pessimistic, doubtful. I am worried he’s buying just to buy, has big ideas with no follow-through. The last card, Page of Pents, I pulled as a clarifier. It seemed to assure me that my spouse really does see photography as a financial opportunity. He’s dedicated hours and hours to learning the equipment, software, industries, and other topics. He is really trying to manifest this reality and make the leap to self-employment via services using this equipment. ...
