General:
You may be feeling like people around you are trying to manipulate your
opinions to serve themselves. If you’re not willing to let go of those who no
longer resonate with your journey, your path will continue to be blocked. Taking
action is critical to you staying on the path to your destiny. Action can be
taken in big or small steps. Take whatever steps you can to give yourself the
feeling, however slight, of being in control. Even if that is merely making a
choice on what you are going to have for dinner. Small steps are important,
too.
Work:
You may very well feel trapped in a job that you detest but can’t see your
way clear to leave because of the security. Consider whether the trade-offs are
worth it as the truth of the matter is that in this day and age, very few jobs,
pensions, etc. are truly secure. If you choose to stay where you are, be aware
that this is a choice that you are making, nothing has been forced upon you. If
you don’t feel the trade-off is worth your unhappiness, start putting out
feelers and giving thought to what you can do to change the situation. You are
not trapped unless you allow yourself to be trapped.
Love:
If you’re in a long-term romantic relationship, one or both parties may have
gotten to the point where they feel as though they are trapped in the
situation. If you’re getting signals that this is the case, try to talk about
it if you want to save the relationship.
This card also sometimes appears when there is really nothing to be done but
to end an unhappy relationship. We always have choices. Take steps to keep the
magic alive. If you’re seeking love, this may be a signal that you’re acting
out of lust, an attitude which definitely drives off would-be lovers. If that’s
the case, consider taking a short time out from relationship-seeking and get to
know yourself better.
Finances:
Things may be or may get very tight in the near future. Try not to resent
the situation, but to deal calmly and rationally with it. Otherwise, you’ll sign
contracts that will be less beneficial to you in the future. Take one step at a
time. If you need financial help, don’t be afraid or too proud to ask for it.
Help is always available.
Health:
This is a time that you need to watch out for being overworked, overtired,
and over-stressed. Exercise will help as it forces you to work on yourself
rather than on other people’s problems. If you are dealing with a chronic
health condition, don’t let it define you. You are more than your diseases and
you are better served by using health challenges as a tool for growth instead
of feeling sorry for yourself.
Spirituality:
Keeping a positive mindset is importance right now. Positive affirmations
will benefit you. Take a look at who you surround yourself with. Are they
upbeat, positive people in your life, or are you surrounded by overly critical,
fault-finding people who nit-pick you to the point where you’re depressed? Take
stock, then take action. Life is short, and attitudes are contagious.
