Bosch Tarot: 9 of Swords, 5 of Pentacles, & 7 of Chalices.

Immediately: Yourself. You have been through some shit stuff, and before you can work on the external, you should work on the internal. Whether that is body, mind, soul, or all three is something you’ll have to sort out. But before moving forward, make sure you’re starting off with sound feet.

Once the immediate need is taken care of: How you let your “I Want” override your reason. While the Bosch’s 5 of Pentacles is titled “Temptation” by Atanassov, it does not necessarily mean material greed. Anything you want so bad that you are willing to break yourself to get it, is a temptation. Before reaching for it, make it justify itself. And make sure the cost is what you can afford.

Over the upcoming weeks: Unreasonable expectations. “I wish”, “It could”, and “If everything goes to plan”, are three ways you’ve been sabotaging yourself. Yes, the cliché is to shoot for the moon, but the reality is you have to account for where that arrow is likely to actually land. If you have been reaching for a thing and that thing just will not manifest despite all your efforts, it is time for you to sit down and assess the facts on the table. Is that thing realistic in the first place, and what have you abandoned in this quest?
