WELCOME TO THE FUTURE AND THE PAST AND THE DARK CORNERS OF YOUR HEART

THE CHANGE


MINDY


We begin: In the present position we find the Nine of Coins which means you are currently gaining recognition in the eyes of your contemporaries.

That is immediately influenced by the Death card. Did I hear a gasp? Contrary to popular belief, the Death card isn’t a negative card. It tells me that in order to achieve this new level of confidence and skill you’ve removed the negative from your life. An additional trigger in this event could be a Scorpio.

The next card is the Hermit. This tells me you are purposely withdrawing from the world in order to seek wisdom.

In the distant past we have the Six of Coins. You are a generous person, and people have benefited from that generosity. Some may have even taken advantage of you in the past because of your willingness to help others.

In the recent past, we have the Empress. Your creative energies are always moving, and you’ve experienced a deep need to cultivate your creativity. You are a strong woman of great resolve, and your future will be mapped by your own strength and determination.

In the doorway to the future we find the Knight of Coins. You have the energy and drive of a young man eager to set out on a new journey. This ties in with the next card that shows you are unafraid to experiment and go where others aren’t ready to go. This mindset will help in your endeavors.


Mentally you are in a state of turmoil. Something is confusing you right now, but patience is the key. Remain calm until you have more information. You feel the need to rush, but take your time and all will sort itself out in the end.

The overview card is the Ten of Swords. This position influences all the other cards in the spread. Some might consider the Ten of Swords a negative card, but the entire spread until this point is extremely positive. This tells me that something negative brought about something good. At some point you hit bottom, said fuck this shit, and made a big change in your life that you are still experiencing. It’s possible that you were putting your own interest last and decided it was time to think about yourself. It could also mean the end of something due to backstabbing or misfortune. Ten of Swords is very similar to the Death card, so you have two strong cards indicating a big change and a new beginning.
You’ve been dealt a blow, but you’ve dusted yourself off and embarked upon a new journey.
