question: is the path im on the right one for me?

card #1 represents self: seven of coins

this one suggests you’re pausing to take a look around yourself right now. to see if you’re in the right place, if you’re content, or if you need to keep moving forward.

card #2 represents what your “self” is complicated by: queen of cups

the queen of cups is a very spiritual card, who likes to deal with anything but the practical and prefers the subconscious. in this place, i’m going to say the deck is telling you to be more attune to your dreams and things of spiritual nature, because not doing so is complicating your self.

card #3 represents your unconscious: ace of cups

one of my favorite cards! the ace of cups refers to the beginnings of a new relationship - love, friendship, beginnings in general. your unconscious feels that you’re on the verge of something exciting so keep an eye out for it.

card #4 represents your conscious: death

DON’T FREAK OUT death really does NOT mean anything bad - it’s actually a really good card! this one deals with rebirth and change. death appearing in the position of your conscious says to me that you’re thinking about a bit transformation in your life - and it suggests that you go for it.

card #5 represents what you think will help your situation: two of wands

planning, goals, and looking forward. this card is pretty straightforward in this position - you think that if you just plan, make goals, and keep going forward you will be on the right path.

card #6 represents what you think will hurt your situation: two of cups

this card signifies a close relationship, be it friend- or lover-wise. up to you. in this position, i would interpret it to mean that you’re worried that by forming a relationship (possibly a new romantic one?) you would lose sight of your path and not meet your goals.

card #7 represents what will actually help: knight of coins

this is the hard work card! by being dutiful, diligent, and methodical you should be able to meet your goals. in regards to your question and what card #5 suggests, you seem to be on the right path to achieve your goals if you keep working for them.

card #8 represents what will actually hurt: queen of coins

the queen of coins is described as the mother to everyone - super generous and giving. she’s also incredibly materialistic and thrives on stability. in this place, i would take this card as a warning against focusing too much on materialism and staying-in-one-place, it will prevent you from getting where your path is taking you.

card #9 represents your path ahead: ace of coins

ace of coins is the card of opportunity. it isn’t a guarantee of any sort of success, but it is a guarantee of opportunity. soon you’ll have a great opportunity arise on your path, and that you should use that opportunity to grow it into something even better.

card #10 represents your outcome: five of wands

oook this one’s a little... i wouldn’t say bad, but it’s a warning. this one suggests that you’re going to face conflict - namely in people questioning you, your decisions, your morals. so far the cards have suggested you’re on the right path, but this one warns that if you stick to it you’ll be questioned, your resolve tested. but, at the same time, it’s also telling you to stick to your guns. if you’re sure about the path you decide on, then don’t back down from it. even if people question you, you’re doing what’s best for you.

conclusion: you’re doing good boo! this reading tells me you’re working hard at what you believe in, and that if you keep on keeping on you’re going to come across a great opportunity. don’t be afraid of the people who may question if you’re doing what’s right, you’re doing you :)

additionally, i noticed when i was shuffling that the fool kept appearing and sticking out of the deck - which is usually a sign to take interest in. in this case, i think it represents you! not in a bad way, of course. the fool is a card that represents innocence, fearlessness, and potential. it suggests that you channel your inner “youthful idealism” when making your next decision :)
