🌑 Shadow Work

No reading is complete without looking at our darkness. These are the uncomfortable questions you must ask yourself today:

  • The World: What "loose end" am I refusing to close for fear of what will come next? How am I sabotaging my own success by not feeling worthy of wholeness?
  • Five of Pentacles: Am I using my hardship as a way to avoid taking responsibility for my own growth? Do I believe that suffering makes me more "spiritual" or "worthy" of attention?
