#career

"Unrealistic" meaning extremely difficult, fantastical, extremely high barrier to entry, etc. This includes both things that don't exist, and things that do exist but the average person would never have the opportunity or ability to do, such as astronaut, olympic athlete, unicorn tamer, trillionaire, extremely famous pop star, etc.

"Published (number of works on ao3) written works spanning (lowest word count) to (highest word count) to a nonprofit international digital archive dedicated to preserving and maintaining society's reactions, impressions, and culture regarding various forms of fictional media."

You can also simplify it to "Creative Writer - Archive (dates) and then put "Wrote for a nonprofit digital archive as a volunteer."

Plus, if you have a lot of hits or kudos on your works, you can say, "I reached (number of hits) people and (number of kudos) of those people signified to the Archive that my work resonated with them."

Because, technically, we are all volunteering our time and donating our writing to AO3's cause of preserving the fandoms and the culture around them. And people do sometimes just call it "Archive". So nothing I just said was a lie.

Pick a Pile:

Pile 1: I see that people think you’re very confrontational & stand-up for yourself that you can come across as intimidating sometimes. You’re not afraid to let things go that don’t serve you, even if they are close relationships or friendships & things that seem like they matter most to other people. Some people think that they can be the exception to your behaviour & think you won’t check them, but you do, & they can be shocked by that. Another thing can be that you already went through so much in life, especially at a younger age & during childhood, so being this bold & assertive can be new & admirable to some people. You might also be someone who puts themselves together physically, some might see you as “boujee” because you take care of your physical appearance, & that can also make them feel like your looks can be threatening or seem like you have expensive taste, but you don’t let it get to you, because you are just there to make yourself happy. You can even get a lot of stares or compliments as well. You carry yourself with bravery & grace, even if people can think of it as arrogance, you see it as a valuable strength, & that leaves people with no choice but to respect you.

Pile 2: They might see you as a “dreamer” or someone who always has their head in the clouds. Some might call you delusional, & you might respond back with “well, delulu is the solulu.”. You might be very stubborn in getting what you want, to the point of it being risky. They see you as goal-oriented & determined in getting what you want, like putting all your eggs in one basket, even if it may cause disruptions in your life or it may not end up working out, but you don’t care, you’re just happy you tried. You can also be someone who seems more “juvenile” than you are, look-wise or personality-wise, & even have a certain softness to you like your features, your qualities, or your voice. This may cause for some people to underestimate you, since you are very youthful & especially if you look like it, you have a spark to you that is very innocent & out-going, but at the end of the day, you work hard in getting what you want & your dreams can work out at the end. You might be a genuine manifester, & this can make people misunderstand you or speak evil in your goals, but you don’t listen, because at the end of the day, you stand up for yourself & what you want in life, even if people would tell you “that’s not realistic.”, since you are care-free.

Pile 3: Some can definitely see you as someone who wears their heart on their sleeve & doesn’t care about what people might think of their vulnerability. You chase after you want without care & do yourself justice. When others are not there to help, you are there to do it yourself, but that doesn’t mean you’re harsh or mean, you just work hard for what you think you deserve. You can also have a kind or “sunshine” personality where you make people feel invited or accepted into any place. When you meet someone like you or who seems more vulnerable than you are, you make sure to make them feel welcomed or heard into whatever space you two are in, which can make them see you as comforting sometimes. You can also be visibly different from your peers & even alike to the ones who gravitate towards you, for example if you’re alternative, some may appreciate your style despite your differences & the others can make note of that being a sign you would get along & relate to. Another thing can be that you work hard for what you have or people notice that you are very strong on your own, you can be very independent but still work well with others. You can stand-up on your own & make your voice feel heard, & even help others who are more vulnerable or alike to you. This can make people respect you & make people see you as reliable or even relatable.

If you're happier renting an apartment than buying a house, then rent.

If marriage just isn't your cup of tea, then don't get married.

If you're happier in a job that doesn't involve sitting in a cubicle, then take the job you're happier in.

If kids just aren't for you, then don't have kids.

Pile 1:

Cards pulled: Two of Swords

Your next opportunity feels very close already, but hesitation, overthinking, or emotional indecision is slowing your ability to fully see it. Spirit is showing a crossroads energy here where part of you already knows what needs to change, release, or be chosen, yet there’s still emotional resistance attached to letting go of the familiar. This opportunity cannot fully enter while your energy stays split between past and future

The timing here is strongly tied to emotional release. “When you let go” feels literal. The second you stop mentally clinging to outdated fears, situations, people, expectations, or emotional uncertainty, movement begins almost immediately. This pile feels less delayed by fate and more delayed by emotional attachment (your opportunity is honestly waiting for you more than you’re waiting for it)

Pile 2:

Cards pulled: Seven of Wands

Your next opportunity feels connected to persistence, boundaries, and refusing to back down from what you truly want. Spirit is showing that you’ve already been tested heavily before this opening arrives. You may currently feel emotionally defensive, exhausted, or like you constantly have to prove yourself lately, but this pressure is preparing you to protect the next phase of your life more carefully

Timing wise, this feels strongly connected to the upcoming New Moon on May 27, 2026. Around this period, new beginnings, opportunities, communication, applications, recognition, or important shifts may begin unfolding. Spirit keeps emphasizing that this opportunity arrives after a period where you stop shrinking yourself to make others comfortable. Stand your ground now because the energetic shift is already building (this feels closer than you realize honestly)

Pile 3:

Cards pulled: Eight of Swords

Your next opportunity is extremely close, but your own thoughts, fears, anxiety, or overanalysis are making it feel further away than it actually is. Spirit is showing mental restriction more than external blockage. You may currently feel trapped, uncertain, emotionally overwhelmed, or convinced that nothing is moving yet behind the scenes energy is already shifting rapidly

The timing here is very fast. By the end of this week, especially since it’s already Wednesday, there may be sudden movement, clarity, communication, realization, or an opening that changes your perspective quickly. This pile feels like something you mentally convinced yourself was impossible suddenly beginning to crack open unexpectedly (stop assuming nothing is happening just because you can’t fully see it yet)

Pile 1: The sun, 7 of cups and The devil.

Your career right now needs clarity and brutal honesty. The Sun is asking you to focus on what truly makes you happy and gives you vitality, not on what a good job "should" be. Your number one priority is to reclaim your joy and vital energy. The cards warn you not to focus on endless training programs or "a thousand options" for fear of choosing. Focus on filtering what you truly want. Your focus should be on identifying your toxic attachments to work. Stop imagining what the ideal job would be like and start moving toward what brings you peace and light immediately.

Pile 2: Ace of cups, page of cups and page of wands.

Here the tarot tells you that your focus shouldn't be on money or rigid structures, but rather on becoming an enthusiastic learner again. Your absolute priority is to rediscover the love for what you do. This card suggests that there is room for learning, but not heavy or obligatory academic training. Perhaps you should focus on courses or workshops that awaken your natural curiosity. Maybe something related to communication, emotional psychology, art, or alternative therapies. Focus on experimenting. You need to reclaim yourself. These cards tell you to let go of the seriousness of the "adult world of work" and rediscover the joy of exploring.

Pile 3: Knight of wands, 6 of swords and the hanged man.

It tells you that your focus shouldn't be on "running forward," but rather on looking back to understand what pieces of your past you can salvage and, above all, radically change your perspective.

Don't focus on finding a job just for the adrenaline rush of change or to "do something" quickly. Your focus shouldn't be on speed. If you feel you have to "run" to find your place, slow down. That rush is what leads you back to the wall. Focus on accepting the pause. Your career right now doesn't need "doing," it needs to be "seen from a different angle." Perhaps what you consider a "failure" or a "setback" is actually necessary preparation.

Stop seeing work as a straight line of ascent and start seeing it as a space that adapts to you. Learn to be in "non-action" without feeling guilty.
