mental anguish and the end of a long-term situation. pain and sadness, yeah, but the end of this suffering is near. everyone* is aware of the pain. most probably would like the suffering to be nearing an end, but to adopt such an optimistic viewpoint, at this point in time, would be premature. yes, that is true. but let’s be hopeful today on the internet!

card #2, the transition period (the bridge) = 6 of swords.

a spiritual journey. a release from anxiety, a healing. the painful past can be acknowledge, analyzed, and then moved past. a fitting card pull.

card #3, the future of work (aka tomorrow’s b.s. jobs) = 9 of cups.

satisfaction and earthy pleasure. emotional stability and perhaps a touch of laziness. “life is good.” hopefully laziness as a result of how easy it is for people to have their needs met. “lazy” from modern/boomer viewpoints could also imply more time spent catering to one’s own health, creating art, socializing, &c. a recent research report i read (okay, GLANCED at) painted boomers as very unwilling to spend more $ on their own health. genz and millennial people are very willing, and especially the former. probably because they literally have nothing else they can control in their lives besides their own health and wellness. i hope the current work-life/health/degrowth trends continue onwards & upwards indefinitely. the current trajectory of many germinating health trends could bear some of the greatest fruits of the last gazillion generations. (all generations, ever.) the death of alcohol will not be mourned.

all three cards are very fitting for a long-term optimistic future. and that’s my base case for the future (it always is). FINGERS CROSSED.
