Upright meaning

This is a period when people are watching what you have accomplished. Rather than the result itself, you feel a great sense of relief from the people who shared the process recognizing you.

Reversed meaning

Even though you have finished all six, you feel a sense of emptiness. This may not be because the result is bad, but because a gap remains between expectation and reality.

Readings by topic

Love

Upright — This is a time when the feelings of two people are revealed outwardly. Often, it is the side that shared the process, rather than the result, that sustains the relationship.

Reversed — A sense of frustration from unmet expectations remains like an aftereffect. It is often not because the relationship is bad, but because there is a gap between expectation and reality.

Work

Upright — This is a time when others recognize what you have done. If you acknowledge who helped you in this position, people will remain to work with you next time.

Reversed — You may feel as though nothing remains in your hands despite putting in much effort. It is not that the work is bad, but often there is a gap between expectation and reality.

Money

Upright — This is a time when what you put in returns as a visible value. If you believe a single success is your permanent skill and bet too heavily, you may start to waver.

Reversed — Even though money has gathered, it seems you feel less satisfaction. You are not losing; rather, there is often a gap between expectation and reality.

Choices

Upright — This is a situation where you receive confirmation that your choice was right. However, there is no guarantee that the method that worked this time will work next time.

Reversed — Even though you have made a choice, it seems you feel less satisfaction. The choice is not bad; rather, there is often a gap between expectation and reality.

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 devoted yourself to achieving something. You moved toward your goals and built up accomplishments. That effort accumulated to create your current stable life.

Present — Now, it is a time when people look at what you have done. Rather than the result itself, you feel relief that those who were with you recognize it. It is good to look deeply into your bonds with the people around you.

Future — From here on, the joy of achievement will spread throughout your life. People will applaud as they look at your accomplishments. You should share your heart while remembering those who struggled alongside you.

Reversed

Past — In the past, you felt empty even after finishing something. You wanted to enjoy the achievement, but the distance between expectation and reality was great. That emptiness affected the flow of your life.

Present — Now, you are in a situation where you feel empty even though you have finished everything. The result itself is not bad, but your heart is not satisfied. It is important to examine the gap between expectation and reality.

Future — From here on, the difference between results and your heart may continue. You will feel an unfillable emptiness. You must manage your mind by checking the expectations you have set for yourself.

As your card of the day

Upright — Today is a day not to hide what you have done. Even if it is a small achievement, sharing it with those around you in a few words will give you strength for your next task.

Reversed — It would be better not to boast too much about your results today. If it is something to be celebrated, try offering a word of thanks to those who helped you first.
