A | 2 of Swords Reversed

Your next relationship begins when uncertainty can no longer be avoided.

You chose the card of a truth that has been waiting at the door. What happens after the silence breaks? ⚖️

The emotional atmosphere: This connection may feel like a turning point after a long stretch of mixed signals or emotional indecision. One of you enters it having finally admitted what you want, even if that honesty arrives with discomfort rather than perfect confidence.

Their hesitation: There can be a noticeable shift from distance into directness. The other person might seem guarded at first, not because they feel nothing, but because they are tired of guessing where they stand and wary of being pulled back into an unequal dynamic.

How it unfolds: Conversations in this relationship carry weight. Feelings that were once softened, postponed, or hidden are more likely to surface, creating both relief and friction as you learn whether honesty can replace the old pattern of avoidance.

SCHROE's advice: Do not mistake emotional intensity for instability, or immediate clarity for complete healing. Let actions restore balance slowly, and notice whether both people are willing to name the truth without using it as a weapon.

Keywords: truth, decision, imbalance

B | Queen of Cups

Your next relationship feels emotionally safe, intuitive, and quietly nourishing.

You chose the card with the deepest emotional waters. Someone may notice what you never thought to say. 🌊

The emotional atmosphere: This relationship carries a gentle emotional intelligence. You may feel understood without having to explain every shift in your mood, while the other person brings a calm attentiveness that makes vulnerability feel less risky.

Their way of loving: Their affection is likely to appear through small, consistent acts: remembering what matters to you, checking in when your energy changes, or offering comfort without trying to immediately solve you. They may sense more than they say, so their quietness is not necessarily distance.

How it unfolds: The bond grows through emotional reciprocity rather than dramatic pursuit. There is room for tenderness, honest pauses, and a deepening sense that both of you can be soft without becoming responsible for each other’s entire inner world.

SCHROE's advice: Keep compassion connected to boundaries. A loving relationship should not require you to absorb every feeling in the room; let care flow both ways, and trust that clear needs can coexist with a tender heart.

Keywords: empathy, care, intuition

C | 7 of Wands Reversed

Your next relationship may feel like relief after both of you stop fighting so hard.

You chose the card of lowered defenses. The real question is whether the calm that follows can hold you both. 🕊️

The emotional atmosphere: There is a tiredness around this connection, but not necessarily a lack of feeling. One or both of you may arrive after defending your heart for too long, ready for something that does not demand constant proof, performance, or emotional battle.

Their vulnerability: The other person could be slow to protect their own needs, sometimes withdrawing or agreeing too quickly because they feel overwhelmed. Their softness may be genuine, yet their difficulty with confrontation can leave important feelings unspoken.

How it unfolds: This relationship may begin in an unexpectedly unguarded way. As defenses lower, you might experience profound ease, but also discover that peace is not the same as passivity and that unresolved exhaustion still needs care.

SCHROE's advice: Build the connection around sustainable effort, not one person carrying everything. Make space for rest, but do not let avoidance disguise itself as acceptance; both people deserve a relationship where boundaries are supported rather than surrendered.

Keywords: release, exhaustion, surrender

D | Ace of Wands

Your next relationship feels electric, hopeful, and full of room to become something real.

You chose the card of a first spark. Something—or someone—may make ordinary days feel newly charged. 🔥

The emotional atmosphere: This connection begins with a clear pulse of attraction and possibility. You may feel more inspired around this person, as though their presence wakes up a part of you that had been waiting for excitement without the heaviness of the past.

Their approach: The other person is likely to show interest through initiative: starting conversations, suggesting plans, or making their enthusiasm visible. Their confidence may be refreshing, though the early intensity can make it tempting to imagine the entire future before the foundation is built.

How it unfolds: The relationship grows through shared experiences and honest momentum. There is playfulness, physical chemistry, and a sense of discovery, but its long-term shape depends on whether inspiration develops into consistency after the first spark settles.

SCHROE's advice: Enjoy the beginning without demanding that it prove everything at once. Stay curious about who this person is beyond the chemistry, and let steady follow-through be the measure of potential.

Keywords: spark, momentum, potential

Whatever your card reveals, let it be a compassionate mirror rather than a fixed promise. The right connection will make room for your truth, not ask you to abandon it. 🤍

From #1 New York Times bestseller Cassandra Clare and award-winner Wesley Chu comes the first book in a new series that follows High Warlock Magnus Bane and Alec Lightwood as they tour the world after the Mortal War. The Red Scrolls of Magic is a Shadowhunters novel. All Magnus Bane wanted was a vacation—a lavish trip across Europe with Alec Lightwood, the Shadowhunter who against all odds is finally his boyfriend. But as soon as the pair settles in Paris, an old friend arrives with news about a demon-worshiping cult called the Crimson Hand that is bent on causing chaos around the world. A cult that was apparently founded by Magnus himself. Years ago. As a joke. Now Magnus and Alec must race across Europe to track down the Crimson Hand and its elusive new leader before the cult can cause any more damage. As if it wasn’t bad enough that their romantic getaway has been sidetracked, demons are now dogging their every step, and it is becoming harder to tell friend from foe. As their quest for answers becomes increasingly dire, Magnus and Alec will have to trust each other more than ever—even if it means revealing the secrets they’ve both been keeping.

I’m a big fan of the shadowhunters universe but I also am one of those pain in the ass people that are always saying “oh, I would love if Cassandra Clare wrote something else”. Well, I'm’ not saying that now am I??? Because no matter how many new characters she comes up with I will never love anyone more than I love Alec and Magnus.

The book is not mind-blowing but is a nice enough story that fills the reader on what happened in Alec and Magnus vacation right before “City of Fallen Angels”. The plot is compelling enough, but of course, the best thing about the book was the humor from Magnus comments on clothes and disastrous events and how thirsty Alec is to finally jump on Magnus' bones. Those two together are so good!

It was also nice to see some characters to which we are later introduced (on a chronological level) and see how Aline Penhallow and Helen Blackthorn really meet. They are both so adorable and every time I read anything about them I just start to blush.

My favorite part though was not the story, but during the acknowledgments at the end of the book where Cassie took us through her journey of how difficult it was to represent a healthy gay relationship in her books. When The Mortal Instruments started being written and then published, being LGBTQ+ and the public perception of what it meant to be gay was completely different from nowadays. It’s hard for us now to watch a tv show without a gay character (well or badly written, it’s there), and even in the fantasy and sci-fi world literature, we can count on a lot more representation. It was not like that not so long ago. She went from having two LGBT characters being considered as sexual content even before they had kissed to now writing a book with barely any straight characters.

I feel like I should also mention, all the scenes in which racism, xenophobia, and just plain discrimination are also depicted in this book. Cassandra Clare never disappoints when it comes to using a fictional medium to teach us about the real world. I’m so looking forward to the next book in which Cassie can develop on that mind-blowing plot twist at the end.
