Upright

Past — In the past, every moment of your life was as bright as pouring light. You expressed joy in everything with confidence. That lively energy formed your overall attitude toward life.

Future — From here on, success will come to all areas of your life. You will move toward clear goals and see great achievement. You must prepare your heart to fully enjoy the coming joy.

Reversed

Past — In the past, you struggled to see only the bright sides. You lived with groundless optimism while ignoring reality. That attitude became the cause of your current energy depletion.

Present — Now, you are having a hard time because your energy is not as high as before. Your energy is depleted, and you are struggling to find vitality in life. It is necessary to face reality and not try to act bright forcefully.

Future — From here on, your energy will either be refilled or hit rock bottom completely. You will gain a realistic attitude while finding balance in life. You must guard against excessive optimism and focus on building inner strength.
