Work

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, all the tools to manage your life were already in place. You struggled to focus your mind while thinking about how to use them. That prepared state became your current foundation.

Present — Now, you are in a state of having the skills and abilities to change your life. You are gathering energy while focusing on what to create. It is important to decide how to utilize your tools.

Future — From here on, you will change the reality of your life through focused will. You can create new things by exercising your own abilities. You will refine the texture of your life while learning how to handle your tools.

Reversed

Past — In the past, your life direction was unsettled and wavering. You had many things you wanted to do, but you wasted opportunities due to a lack of will. As a result, your life flow remained unorganized.

Present — Now, your life direction is in a scattered state. You need a process of clearly re-examining what you want. You must focus on finding your center and setting your direction straight.

Future — From here on, your life direction will be clearly established. Once you know clearly what you want, your life flow becomes stable. You just need to move forward steadily along the set direction.

As your card of the day

Upright — Today is a day to trust your abilities and act proactively. If you see an opportunity, do not hesitate. Results follow wherever you focus.

Reversed — Be careful of distractions today. It is better to focus on one thing rather than trying to touch many different things.
