In the past, present and future positions
When you draw three cards and read them as past, present and future, this card reads like this in each position.
Upright
Past — In the past, you lacked help and felt very cold. You suffered a lot because what you had did not meet your needs. That lack made the weight of life feel heavy.
Present — Now, the world feels cold because what you have does not meet your needs. You feel cold because you lack money or energy. You should calmly examine the areas where you are lacking.
Future — From here on, life will move forward as you fill what is necessary. Once the lack is filled, you will see the coldness in your heart fade away. Prepare your energy and resources in advance.
Reversed
Past — In the past, the foundation of your life was frozen cold. You wandered with cold hands, struggling to fill what was missing. As that time of lack passes, warmth is beginning to return bit by bit.
Present — Now, your situation in life is in the process of slowly warming up. You are not fully recovered, but warmth is seeping in from the ground up. Not everything has improved yet, so move forward slowly.
Future — From here on, your situation in life will be fully restored. Your frozen heart and environment will be filled with warm energy. You can find a stable flow by accepting help from those around you.
As your card of the day
Upright — Do not hide your shortcomings today. If you speak up about them, help will come from a place closer than you think.
Reversed — Focus on your physical energy first today. Starting with eating on time and getting enough sleep is the beginning of recovery.
