Readings
Two Cards
If you are trying to make a very important decision in your life and you don’t know which path to follow, if you are really doubtful about the consequences the crossroads tarot spread will help you to find your way.
Five of Pentacles
Upright
Financial loss, poverty, lack mindset, isolation, worry
The Five of Pentacles card symbolizes loss and poverty. Particularly when it comes to your finances and physical properties, you are hitting tough times. You may have lately lost your work, your house, or your economic security. This is a Minor Arcana card with short effects and it will pass.
In this time of poverty, the Five of Pentacles shows that you feel lonely and discarded. Similarly to the two people on the card, you feel as if you have been abandoned in the cold However, as the light from windows is lit up, help is approaching, but you are too focused on your difficulties to see.
Sometimes, the Five of Pentacles hints that you are undermining your capacity to create wealth because you only concentrate on what you miss and what is going wrong. To change this energy, search for proof of what you do own, and show your thankfulness for those advantages in your life. The good aspects will increase by time and, ‘need’ will be a thing of history.
Furthermore, the Five of Pentacles implies that you worry you don’t possess fairly or you may lose things valuable to you – even if it hasn’t occurred still or is absurd. If you continue thinking about all the negative stuff that might occur, then your manifesting energies may start to produce the results that you don’t like.
Reversed
Recovery from financial loss, spiritual poverty
The reversed Five of Pentacles shows an end to difficult times, particularly if you have recently experienced a major job or finances problem. You may find new origins of revenue or a new job. Eventually, you can see a way out of your economic problems and your confidence is restored.
The reversed Five of Pentacles can sometimes explain the resolution of emotional poverty. You may feel like something is missing but it is hard to put your finger on what it might be. You may also feel alone, even in a group of people.
If you find your obsession with physical possessions is creating harm to your soul, then it’s time to end. Even if you have little money, you may still have a caring family and a beating heart. Yes, everything sucks right now, but if you hear these scarcity thoughts coming through in your mind, pause for a second and question whether this is the fact or a limiting view. Trust that the Divine is here to help you, particularly when you are pursuing your inner calling and your life mission. When you actually appreciate something, you’ll make it occur.
Seven of Cups
Upright
Opportunities, choices, wishful thinking, illusion
The Seven of Cups card represents new possibilities, options, and at times, an illusion. When the Seven of Cups show up in a Tarot reading, you have many choices but be careful! You are prone to confusion and unrealistic goals. An opportunity with promises of more abundance may seem appealing, but as you look deeper, you may realize it is more complicated. Evaluate your opportunities and dig underneath the surface to explore what’s included with each option.
Usually, the Seven of Cups can be a hint of enthusiastic thinking and dreaming, rather than taking action to make it happen. However, if you spend most of your time dreaming but not acting, then it’s time to decide just one thing and make it happen.
The Seven of Cups may be a symbol of that you neglect to see any of those new possibilities through to the end. When you are regularly in the idea stage, you miss the chance to bring your designs to realization. Again, now is a time to concentrate on the one thing that will move you closer to your goal.
This card is calling you to move out of the dreaming phase and choose. Each option will have its pros and cons, so make sure that your choice is in alignment with your purpose – even if you feel slightly paralyzed by the opportunities accessible to you.
Reversed
Alignment, personal values, overwhelmed by choices
The reversed Seven of Cups often shows up when you encounter different choices and, instead of choosing the opportunity that may please others, you are relying on your inner guidance to tell you the best approach. You may have your own rules to help you make choices in association with your inner being.
If you find yourself with multiple choices, teach yourself first and think about what you want for a longer time. All these bright new things in front of you have a specific ‘magic’ control over you right now, and you’re losing your focus if you chase after false dreams.
The reversed Seven of Cups can suggest you are confused by choice and cannot move ahead. Reduce your alternatives and focus on what is essential to you. You don’t need to keep seeking a significant idea; you have what you need. Make your selection and move ahead with it.
