Today, I pulled out my tarot cards because I’ve been feeling a bit lost about my love life lately. I decided to do a simple spread focusing on what the future might hold. I shuffled the deck, really trying to focus on my question: “What’s coming up for me in love?”
I laid out three cards, and the one that stood out the most was the King of Swords in the future position. At first, I was a bit taken aback. This King, he’s all about intellect and logic, not exactly the warm and fuzzy type.
My Process
- Cleansing and Setting the Mood: First, I cleared my space. Lit some incense, you know, the whole nine yards. Got to set the right vibe.
- Shuffling with Intention: While shuffling, I really concentrated on my love life. Kept asking the universe, “What’s up with my love life? What do I need to know?”
- The Draw: I pulled three cards and laid them out. Past, present, and future. The King of Swords landed right at the end.
- First Impressions: Honestly, seeing the King of Swords was a bit… jarring? I mean, he’s not exactly Mr. Romance, right?
- Digging Deeper: I spent some time looking up what this card means in a love context. Turns out, it’s not all bad. It’s about clarity, making smart choices, and not getting swept away by emotions.
- Reflecting: This made me think about my past relationships. Maybe I have been too emotional, too quick to jump in without thinking things through.
- Journaling: I wrote down all my thoughts and feelings. Tried to connect the card’s meaning to my own experiences. It was pretty eye-opening.
It got me thinking. Maybe this King isn’t a bad omen at all. Maybe it means that my future love life will involve someone who is clear-headed and direct, someone who values honesty and communication. Or, maybe it’s telling me that I need to be that person—making decisions with a clear head and not letting emotions cloud my judgment.
One thing I read that stuck with me was, “Be courageous in the pursuit of your path, and find your methodical, confident authority by knowing the way rather than just feeling the way.” That really resonated. It’s like the cards are telling me to be brave, to be smart about my choices, and to take control of my own love life.
The King of Swords can sometimes mean a lack of emotional closeness, though. So, it’s not all sunshine and roses. It could also suggest challenges, maybe a relationship that feels a bit cold or distant at times. Or, it could be a warning that I might be acting too detached myself.
But on the flip side, the King of Swords is also about being someone others turn to for advice. Maybe that’s the role I’ll play in my future relationship—being the rock, the one who brings stability and wisdom.
At the end of the day, this reading gave me a lot to chew on. It wasn’t what I expected, but maybe it’s what I needed. It’s a reminder to be smart, to be clear, and to be confident in my approach to love. And who knows, maybe that’s the key to finding a fulfilling relationship in the future.
