Hi Firebirds,

This pick-a-card reading is about what cycles do you keep repeating and will probably keep repeating.This could be about family, work, relationships, or jsut overall the people you keep around you that makes you want to keep repeating certain habits, actions, and mindset. Not going to lie for some of you may resonate with at least 2-3 piles because they kind of collide with with other just in different ways.

This is a general reading, remember to take what resonates and leave what does not. This reading does not supplement your need to seek professional help. Tarot should be used as entertainment and not a for sure answer to your problems, but as a guide, a sense of hope, and amusement.

Take your time when choosing your pile. Ask yourself the question, listen to your intuition, and pick the photo you feel most called to.

Pile 1:

What Cycles Are You Repeating? Cards: Ace of Swords, Justice, 9 of Swords, 6 of Swords, 2 of Swords

Victim Mentality was the first thing that came to mind after the Ace of Swords and Justice card came out. You, pile 1, are constantly playing the victim card similar to the women on Tiktok who post about their crappy boyfriends and then defend them when people tell them to leave or that what they are facing is a form of abuse. The image that also comes to mind is the meme of spongebobs hands in handcuffs but the handcuffs are too big and he can easily get out of them but chooses to keep wearing them. There are things in your life that you continue to remain a victim of even though you can leave at anytime but you choose not too. For most of you this is a relationship (romantic/platonic) but others of you this could potentially be a job. Anytime someone tells you something that goes against enabling your behavior and mindset of the situation that you are in you don't want to listen or get upset. Everything goes in one ear and out the other because you don't want a solution to your problem because deep down there is something in you that craves the drama and toxicity of your situation.

For some of you I don't see this cycle stopping anytime soon, for others of you, you are on the cusps of a breakthrough in seeing that the people, situations, or places that you keep defending that keeps giving you pain and anxiety are no good for you and you are wanting better for yourself. The feeling of this is 2026 and you deserve to create a new reality for yourself is coming through for those who are beginning to wake up that keeping yourself intentionally stuck is harmful to yourself and for those who care about you that you keep venting to, as they want better for you but know they can't make you leave anything you are willingly holding yourself hostage to.

Pile 2:

What Cycles Are You Repeating? Cards: 9 of Wands, Page of Swords, 8 of Swords, 8 of Swords, 4 of Cups

Very few of may relate to pile 1, if you felt even the slightest bit called to it, definitely check it out. Otherwise, pile 2...the cycle you keep repeating is constanctly getting into toxic and sometimes even abusive relationships. This is mostly speaking romantically but can apply to friendships as well. Most of it isn't truly your fault, everytime you meet some one new you get your hopes up super early in getting to know someone only to in the midst of it all ignore the fed flags that are blaring at you because you keep giving people the benefit of the doubt. Example: You meet a romantic partner and they are giving you constant signs that you are and never will be a priority and they only text you when they want either to use your kindness or to have s*x.

In the midst of all of it you make excuses for them saying maybe they are busy, maybe this, maybe that. I'm hearing the song "Heard It All Before" by Sunshine Anderson plays in my head, definitely give it a listen if you like R&B music. That song is or those who are starting to smell the roses and are about to break the cycle, to be blunt this is only a few of you. "See, I Heard it all before (Heard it all before) (All of your lies, all of your sweet talk) ("Baby" this, "Baby" that) But your lies ain't working now (Now) Look who's hurting now (Look who's hurtin' now) See I had to shut you down (Down) I had to shut you down Played the fool before (Played the fool before)" I have the sense and feeling most of you will go through this cycle a few more times before it hits you that the saying "When someone shows you who they are the first time, believe them" rings very true in all situations whether work, friends, family, or relationships. People especially adults know whatthey are doing and don't care. If you want to test the theory try giving the same energy back to them and see how they either manipulate you in thinking your the problem or say you're being mean when really you are just returning to sender.

Pile 3:

What Cycles Are You Repeating? Cards: Awaken (Judgement), 8 of Cups, 7 of Swords, Ace of Swords, 3 of Swords

Why do you have such a hard time listening to your inner voice (AKA, your intuition), pile 3. Your intuition is there to help guide you when you need it to not only help keep you safe, but helps recognize patterns, and to guide you better on your path but for some strange reason similar to pile 2 you like to give people the benefit of the doubt, but unlike pile 2 you know better, you just like to ignore your intuition that is telling you when someone is no good. You don't feel like a pile that is naïve to the behavior of others, especially with all of the sword cards here. This feels as if you do this in if not all but most areas of your life even when it comes to employment. The song "You Know I'm No Good" by Amy Winehouse is playing in my head.

"I cheated myself Like I knew I would I told you I was trouble You know that I'm no good"

You know when someone is no good deep down but you turn a blind eye to the noise and you always end up hurt and sometimes act shocked when it happens as if the signs were not there and deep inside something was telling you that you needed to leave or walk away if not most times as soon as you either meet a person or within a week of knowing them. This is something you need to look into, pile 3 on why you continue to ignore your intuition. I'm hearing "I knew it, I should have listened to myself" after someone does you dirty. What event caused you to stop trusting yourself. Therapy could be a great tool to use if it is accessible to you. If not doing shadow work prompts could also help in figuring it out.

Pile 4:

What Cycles Are You Repeating? Cards: 3 of Cups, The Tower, 8 of Cups, 10 of Wands, Page of Cups

This pile feels more familial, friendship, work, and just overall the community of people that you keep around you, but could also apply to romance for a very few of you. This feels like a continuous cycle that you keep putting up with even though you want to break free from it. It's this feeling of when you are at work and something happens that you have spoken to management about and they said they would fix it because they didn't want to lose their valuable employee and while they would fix the issue it would only be no longer than a few weeks before they are back on their bullshit again and you deal with it because you have the hopes of things getting better or because they show signs of "trying." Deep down you know this isn't accaptable but you stay because you love the people you are around and don't want to lose them even though they do you dirty. Every. Single. Time.

This isn't something new for you to hear and probably won't be the last time you feel or hear about this way pile 4. There is something inside of you that is so beautiful, empathetic, and kind that sees the better in a situation but also see the bullshit when needed. It just saddens me that you need chaos or for someone to treat you horribly in order for you to even consider leaving instead of when things aren't right the first time around. For 80% of this pile you're going to continue this cyce for a while, for the remaining 20% you're almost out of the hole. You're reaching that point being tired of being a punching bag and understanding about things when others don't lend the same to you.

Thank you all for being here! I hope this reading resonates with you.
