Another Tarot Reading About College

I went back to tarot.com and chose the oth­er lay­out, after real­iz­ing that I must have clicked in the wrong place before (thank you bookofnights.

What’s with all the nines?
Your Ques­tion: Should I go back to school ASAP?

Main (posi­tion­al) Meaning:
When each mem­ber of a group becomes self-direct­ing, hier­ar­chies can be trans­formed and the sit­u­a­tion orga­nized in a more egal­i­tar­i­an way.

The card that lands in the Sit­u­a­tion posi­tion refers to social or cir­cum­stan­tial fac­tors which could be affect­ing your life at this time. 

The Nine of Wands in this posi­tion sug­gests that a sit­u­a­tion may call for re-orga­ni­za­tion. The cur­rent struc­ture of a group may actu­al­ly be dam­ag­ing the lead­er­ship it depends upon for sur­vival. The per­son who has been keep­ing every­body moti­vat­ed and on track would be best served by tak­ing some time off to rest and regenerate. 

The ide­al solu­tion is for each par­tic­i­pant to become as self-direct­ing as pos­si­ble. This will actu­al­ly be an evo­lu­tion­ary step in the group’s con­scious­ness. The lead­ers or role mod­els are not as vul­ner­a­ble to crit­i­cism from those they have been try­ing to inspire and direct. Now, instead of one per­son being the hero, every­body can share both the respon­si­bil­i­ties and the rewards.

Main (posi­tion­al) Meaning:
Accept some acco­lades and rest after your accomplishments.

The card that lands in the Challenges/Opportunities posi­tion refers to ways that you can turn obsta­cles into step­ping stones. 

With the Nine of Cups in this posi­tion, take a well-deserved rest. Accept the rewards, which include time off for reju­ve­na­tion, but don’t for­get the moti­va­tion that car­ried you to this vic­to­ri­ous place. Some­times we are tempt­ed to rest on our lau­rels, but vig­i­lance is required to main­tain the posi­tion you have so recent­ly won. 

Con­tin­ue to tend and cul­ti­vate your suc­cess. In some illus­trat­ed ver­sions of this card, the Nine of Cups por­trays a tav­ern own­er set­ting up casks of ale on a Sat­ur­day night. The tav­ern is full. He knows he’s mak­ing mon­ey, but that does­n’t lure him from behind the bar; he is still work­ing. Grin­ning, he knows that as long as he keeps every­one hap­py, well-fed, and their glass­es full, his cash reg­is­ter fills too. He isn’t expect­ing to retire to a life of ease. With this exam­ple in mind, con­tin­ue your good work.

Main (posi­tion­al) Meaning:
Freed from uncer­tain­ty about your future, you can devel­op your tal­ents and enjoy greater abundance.

The card in the Self posi­tion reveals aspects of how you per­ceive your­self right now. 

The Nine of Coins in this posi­tion indi­cates lib­er­a­tion from sur­vival fears, free­dom from wor­ry and uncer­tain­ty. The tra­di­tion­al image shows a per­son who has enough, is tak­en care of, whose needs are sup­port­ed. The abun­dance she enjoys allows her the free­dom to be her­self and cul­ti­vate her nat­ur­al tal­ents and interests. 

This is a won­der­ful­ly opti­mistic card that says you are start­ing from a well-sup­port­ed posi­tion. Some­how you have placed your­self in a flow of abun­dance. The ques­tion is “What are you going to do with this opportunity?”
