re: Tarot, a break down and examination of this reading
You know, I always feel better about my thinking when explaining it to others, so let's take a little stroll through this interesting (to me, at least) reading.
Feel free to chime in if you think you have input on this. I'm still trying to really properly grasp the Tarot.
A break down of what these cards are (to my understanding) and what this version of the celtic cross means:
The Present: 10 of Wands. A mixed card of both burden and responsibility. A man carrying a heavy load he has made for himself.
The Challenge: 6 of Cups. Clinging to the past, resistant to change. Don't get caught up in looking back, it can stop you moving forward.
The Past: The Emperor. Control, Structure. He is a fatherly figure of authority, wisdom and stability.
The Future: The Magician. Willpower, Creation. They take what they are given and create something new. Both pictures big and small.
Desires/Rising Above: 4 of Wands. A time of peace and celebration, generally implies a large group or community
Subconscious Feelings: 3 of Wands (inverted). Setbacks, frustrations. There will be unexpected problems on the path forward that you won't be fully prepared for. But they can be beaten and pushed through.
Advice: High Priestess. Subconscious, Intuition. She is a guide towards the inner thoughts. An encouragement to explore the world within.
External Influences: 4 of Swords (inverted). Burn out, restlessness. You continue to push through life's struggles to the detriment of your energy. There needs to be rest between the victories.
Fears/Holes 6 of Swords (inverted). Baggage, unresolved issues. Even when the place you're in is hurting you, you find it hard to leave. Movement is needed in life, you're resisting it.
End Point/Goal: 2 of Swords. Tough choices, stalemate. No option ahead of you is free of consequences. Notably the closing of the other path. You stand at a crossroads and must pick one or the other.
OH MY GODS am I glad that masto lets infinite messages be posted because wow that's long.
Okay now to break it down (it's been a lot of typing already)

Me:
Oh man this anecdotal joke image about struggling with ADHD is almost upsettingly on point for my general life.
My brain:
But like, you're just projecting and looking for an excuse for your laziness. Also good luck clearly conveying this to anyone you respect who is proffessionally diagnosed with it.
Sorry, I've moved accounts D:
