So, I was doing a tarot reading the other day, and boom! The Strength card came up reversed. I was like, “What the heck am I supposed to do with this?”
First off, I scratched my head for a bit. I mean, I knew the Strength card usually means inner strength, courage, and self – control when it’s upright. But reversed? That’s a whole different ballgame.
I started by looking back at my life. I thought about the things I’d been dealing with recently. I realized I’d been kinda wimpy in some situations. Like, I was avoiding a tough conversation with a friend because I was scared of what they’d say.
Then, I decided to take action. I grabbed my tarot guidebook, you know, that old thing that’s been sitting on my shelf for ages. I flipped through the pages until I found the part about the reversed Strength card. It said something about a lack of confidence and being too passive.
I was like, “Yeah, that’s me all right.” So, I made a list of the areas in my life where I felt weak. I wrote down things like standing up for myself at work, and not letting people push me around.
Next, I started small. I decided to speak up in a meeting at work. It was nerve – wracking, but I did it! I just blurted out my opinion, and guess what? People listened. It gave me a little boost of confidence.
I also worked on my self – talk. I caught myself saying negative things like, “I can’t do this.” And I’d stop and say, “Hey, wait a minute. I can totally do this!”
As I kept going, I noticed a change. I was feeling more in control, and I wasn’t as afraid of difficult situations. I even had that tough conversation with my friend, and it turned out okay.
So, dealing with the reversed Strength card in a reading was like a wake – up call for me. It made me realize that I had to step up and be stronger. And it worked! I’m still working on it, but I’m a lot better than I was before.
