Okay, so today I wanted to mess around with my tarot deck and get a little guidance on a specific question. I’ve been feeling kinda stuck lately, like I’m at a crossroads, you know? So I figured, why not see what the cards have to say? The question was pretty straightforward: “Should I go for this new opportunity or not?” I’m not gonna lie, my hands were a little sweaty shuffling the deck – big decisions, man!
I did my usual thing – shuffled, focused on my question, and then pulled a single card. And guess what I got? Two of Wands, reversed. Honestly, my first reaction was a bit of a “huh?” I know the Two of Wands is generally about planning and making decisions, but reversed? That threw me for a loop.
So, I grabbed my well-worn tarot guidebook (it’s practically falling apart, I use it so much) and started digging. I also hopped online to check out a few different interpretations, just to get a well-rounded view. What I found was pretty interesting, and kind of a mixed bag, honestly.
- First off, it seemed like the reversed Two of Wands could indicate feeling unsure and hesitant. Like, duh, that’s exactly how I was feeling! It’s like the card was calling me out.
- Then, some sources suggested it could mean I was lacking a solid plan. Ouch. Maybe I hadn’t thought things through as much as I should have.
- Another interpretation pointed towards fear of the unknown holding me back. Yep, guilty as charged. New things can be scary!
- And, finally, the reversed card could also indicate that the timing just wasn’t right. Perhaps its not the best to go for it.
After spending some time with these ideas, I sat back and really reflected. I realized I had been letting fear get the better of me. And my “plan” was more like a vague idea. I’d been so focused on the potential excitement of this new opportunity that I hadn’t really nailed down the practical steps.
My Realization
The reversed Two of Wands, in this case, felt like a gentle (but firm) nudge to slow down. It wasn’t a flat-out “no,” but more of a “not yet.” It was telling me to take a step back, get my ducks in a row, and really think things through before making a leap.
So, that’s what I’m doing. I’m putting the brakes on the big decision for now. I’m going to spend the next few weeks doing some serious planning, researching, and soul-searching. I want to make sure that if I do decide to go for this, I’m doing it with my eyes wide open and a solid plan in place. Thanks, tarot, for the reality check! I needed that.
