Sun, reversed. Implicating that my childhood wounds still prevent me from feeling and expressing need, love.

This resonates so heavily! I get frustrated by cards that seem to follow me around no matter what I ask or what deck I use, but you’re right: that’s absolutely incredibly magic! What are the odds!! When I asked this prompt, 2 cards flew out: Death and the World. I just lost my beloved Dad last summer and am just getting my feet back under me and figuring out what life looks like now, so yeah very “duh” pull lol but nevertheless, fantastically true

It makes me think of the m.c. escher drawings, a hand drawing a hand.

I drew the Lovers. Aligned choice and my projections come to mind. I engage in projections to avoid making choices in alignment with myself...bc I avoid conflict. This is something I'm recognizing and starting to more actively engage with. I have my toes in the water right now. Coincidentally this is a Devil/Lovers year for me.

Is the astrology deck you mention Karma cards?... I think that's what it's called...

This draw definitely brought my dismissive reflex. I drew The Magician reversed. I often draw the Magician when it comes to identity, who I am, what I need to remember about myself.

I am an artist, I am creative, but I've been in such a struggle with that identity for the past few years...not owning my power to create. It's hard! So when I pull this card reversed I'm ABSOLUTELY in that space of eye roll "tell me something I don't know universe". I really have to work hard to allow myself to stay in a curious place with this one. It's resonating, but it feels so close to home that the part of me that wants to stay asleep to myself just has no grid how to inquire deeper. Hmm...

Love this prompt! I’ve pulled the king of swords. Going to sit with what this means... ⚔️

If it were *me* and I pulled King of Swords (another card that I pull often), it would be asking me: are you *really* claiming your expertise? Are you just saying 'yeah yeah, I know I'm good at xyz' but not *owning* it , truly, and not sharing it widely and confidently enough? AND/OR it would tell me: hope is a discipline. And while you may acknowledge that, do you really realize what it's going to take from you to sustain it and not give over to despair or nihilism?
