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, many different things were visible all at once. Rather than choosing one, your heart wavered greatly because you wanted them all. That confused state of mind influenced your attitude toward life.

Present — Now, many aspects of life catch your eye all at once. You are in a state of wanting everything rather than deciding on one. Since it is easy for your heart to waver, you need to find your center.

Future — From here on, your heart will gather in one place. The image of wandering among many things will disappear and become organized. You can let go of greed and move toward a clear direction.

Reversed

Past — In the past, you were in a vague state because you did not know what to do. You could not find your footing because there were too many things you wanted to do. As that unclear state passed, a framework for your thoughts was established.

Present — Now, your vague feelings are being calmly organized. You are living reality by focusing on the work actually within your reach. Open your eyes and look directly at the situation in front of you.

Future — From here on, you will clearly choose one among many options. Instead of complex thoughts, practical actions will follow. Following a set direction, the texture of your life becomes firm.

As your card of the day

Upright — It would be good to write down everything you want to do on a piece of paper today. Instead of trying to catch everything, pick just one thing you can do today and put it into action.

Reversed — It is better not to add more 'what if' tasks today. Simply finishing one task you already have in hand will clear your mind significantly.
