Happy Friday, everyone! Today answers without, answers within features card readings for Mr G, who writes:
For as long as I can remember I can’t maintain a job or a business for a long time, and recently I’m struggling financially and it seems like everything I do don’t go my way and always facing an obstacles. my questions are:
1. when will things improve for me?
2. what kind of business that suits me?
I hope you will help me. I’m lost and don’t know what to do. Thank you.
He recently added that (his) finance situation is just “hovering” now. I found a new way to earn money and can only managed to cover basic needs, like school’s fee, milk,etc but not much left at the end. and my new found business also not stable (i might lose my potential customer any time) and it’s risky. I do hope that there’s a significant improvement in my finance.
Since Mr G talks about a long-lasting problem on going in his life, once again I reached for Doreen Virtue’s Ascended Masters Oracle Cards and tried another round of the 6-card Past Life Spread while asking for an explanation for Mr G’s seemingly never-ending no-win situation. The cards drawn were:
Past: Ragoczy and Mary are all about nurturing, both of yourself and others. My impression of the cards in this position, in this spread, for this question, is that Mr G might be socially awkward and have low self-confidence: the low self-confidence results in his not taking care of himself, and in tandem with the social awkwardness, he might have neglected opportunities to mentor, coach and guide others. This not giving of his Self to others might be blocking his energy and luck.
Present: I read these cards as representing what actions Mr G should take presently to shake off the influence of the past. The cards here recommend writing and crystalwork. Thoth’s exhortation to write doesn’t necessarily mean “you must become an author”; it could just be a suggestion to start keeping a journal (or in this day and age: a blog!). It’s mainly to let your creative juices flow. Epona can also represent working with horses, though I will take her presence to mean that in additon to writing, Mr G might benefit from exploring the world of crystals: perhaps there’s some healing that needs to be done?
Future: So the future indicated should be what’s awaiting as a result of doing what is recommended in the Present… and the message here seems to be that of taking time out for some major contemplation and introspection. The Buddha recommends meditation, self-contemplation, releasing yourself from the shackles of the ego; while the Green Man is all about communing with nature, getting in touch with Mother Earth. One way to look at it is if there’s a job opportunity that brings you to a rural area, or out of the city and into the suburbs, this might be the way to go, since it should bring you closer to the natural world.
Summary: The cause for the ever-looming problems faced by Mr G might have something to do with lack of nurturing that Mr G provides, both for himself at to others. In order to overcome this, Mr G might find journal-keeping beneficial, along with some energy healing via crystalwork. In the future, it might be in Mr G’s best interests to meditate regularly, perhaps to continue with the healing provided by the crystals. In addition, he should consider spending more time in the outdoors communing with nature.

With the big picture tackled, I then did a regular 3-card Past/Present/Future spread for Mr G’s two specific questions stated at the top of this post.
Question 1: When will things improve? (more…)
