21 - Mountain Obstacle, a dilemma, a delay, landscape

Thank you for a precise question. It’s good to see that you recognise you have the power to act and influence the direction of your life. This recognition alone is a strong starting point for moving toward a more fulfilled you.

Past – Temperance, reversed

Lack of balance or control, a sense of discordance or chaos – maybe this is why you are currently feeling stuck? A lack of direction or specific drive in the past lead to taking on too much or spreading yourself thin which gave you temporary satisfaction, but now you seek a purpose or the fulfilment of a long-term goal. Because you no longer have the satisfaction of these different outlets, there is the feeling of being stuck in the present because you are not seeing immediate results. You should take time to consider what you would like to achieve, and work on setting yourself some long-term goals. Perhaps make a to-do list of smaller milestones along the way – this will help to keep up the satisfaction and help you to remember that you are on track. Or maybe you do enjoy keeping up with many smaller endeavours but simply feel that this is not “correct” and feel unsatisfied because you do not feel the need for long-term achievements which is an idea that society promotes as being a key to happiness.

Present – The Star, reversed

In the present, there seems to be an inability to let go of things and start moving forward. This lines up with the past being filled with many endeavours. It is clear that you do not know where to focus your attention as the Star, reversed, speaks of the need for a plan. However, looking toward the future card…

Future – The Tower, reversed

The Tower, reversed, speaks of comfort and stability, an expected outcome. Without coming up with long-term plans, the future seems largely the same. Feeling stuck, this doesn’t seem to be what you are hoping for. You need to consider what aspects of your life you are unhappy with or would like to see change, and then begin forging plans to do so. Remember though, if you are happy with the way things are, you do not need to invite change simply because you feel this is what is expected of you. You should not compare yourself to others and aim to achieve the same milestones as everyone else. You have one life to lead and you should do what makes you happy.
