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

  • The Star: How am I using optimism as a way to disconnect from my present reality? To what extent have I lost faith in myself and projected it into a distant and unattainable future?
  • Six of Swords: Am I using transition as an escape from my current reality rather than a conscious step toward evolution? What anchor from the past am I still holding onto that prevents my boat from reaching a new shore?
