Reading #1





Question:  How can I make the most of my job at this time?

My job is currently in retail hell, with a district manager who is crazy...a highly unpleasent environment and far too stressful for the meager wages I am making.  I know that this job is not a long term solution, but I want to make the best of things right now.  I'm tired, pissed off, and generally grumpy right now.  Don't feel much like reading, but I know it will help me to forget about the day.

I shuffled halfheartedly and drew 3 cards without positions, jsut to see what story they told.  1st card is the 10 of wands.  This is obviously how I am feeling- emotionally, mentally, and physically.  Actually, my shoulder is really hurting right now, so I winced a bit when I saw this card!  Ouch!  But also, I feel like I am working hard and seeing nothing back- I break my butt for this job, and don't even get a well done.  There is no incentive for working so hard- maybe this is telling me to slow down a bit, and not push so hard.




Second card is the sun.  Always look on the bright side of life maybe? Right now that's about as bright and shiny as I get... but in terms of making the most of my job?  Well, I gues I'm stumped... maybe I need to present myself as confident and strong?  The white horse reminds me of a series of dreams I had a while back- all sorts of dreams in which I tried to heal these beautiful white horses who had been hurt or maimed... I always woke up crying.  I still am unsure what those were about.

The third card is the moon.  Unbelievably gorgeous... I am mesmerized by this card.  A full, luminous moon shimmers in a lake... an owl hovers in the silence... fish are brought to the surface.  This card speaks to me of silence and spirituality... listening to my most inward thoughts, and instinct.  I feel like the moon is the antidote to the 10 of wands and the sun- both so fiery and masculine, full of loudness and strain.  The moon tells me to unplug, let go, and dream.
