my dear group one ♡ what’s coming up may not feel like much of a blessing as, truth be told, it is a blessing of tough times and times of challenge.
as this unfolds in your life, remember this one truth: “no rain, no sunshine.”
without difficulties and challenges, will we ever truly appreciate when things are easy? when things are going well? when things are falling into place?
without these difficulties and challenges, will we even know what it’s like to be happy and at peace and content? whose to say, but i say no. i say we need the darkness and the misery and the pain to truly know light and happiness. to truly marvel in the blessings being showered upon us.
so, as you go through this, dear, remember that this, too, is a blessing. that you are being blessed with hard times as much as you will be blessed with good ones. that you are being blessed with patience, and perseverance and an inner-strength.
remember, too, that “blessings” are a manmade ideal. god bestows, and humans decide if this is a blessing or a curse. it is all about perspective.
GROUP TWO
cards pulled · queen of wands (reversed), three of pentacles (reversed), eight of swords, six of cups, eight of cups, death (reversed).
channelled songs · get out by pinkfantasy. wake me up before you go-go by wham! i’m every woman by whitney houston.
my dear group two ♡ your next major blessing sees you settling into yourself -- likely out of no other option but to settle into yourself. out of no other option but to become comfortable with yourself, in your entirety.
you are being forced into this role of the “outside” -- in your community, school, or workplace. you are different from those around you. your views are different from those around you. and that is your strength. that is your blessing.
you are not meant to be the same as everybody else. to share everybody else’s perspectives. to live everybody’s life. and sometimes we have to truly become isolated and feel not just alone but lonely in order to embrace who we truly are.
are that is what this is doing, how this is blessing you. you are going to blessed with this experience that pushes you to be completely unique and original. to honour your uniqueness and original ways of thinking. to forge your own path and create a life for yourself that is truly your own.
GROUP THREE
cards pulled · eight of swords, page of swords, knight of pentacles, seven of pentacles, knight of cups, three of pentacles.
channelled songs · i am the best by 2ne1. middle of the night by monsta x. infinity by superm.
my dear group three ♡ your next major blessing is a blessing of clarity. clarity of the mind.
the fog is being lifted from in front of your eyes and any confusion you may have felt (or held in your mind) is now gone for good and for the better!
up until now, you have been wandering aimlessly. putting one foot in front of the other because while you do not know where you are going, you know that you cannot afford to stay in one place for too long and rot. rot. rot away.
but no more! you are going to receive this blessing of knowing exactly what you want to do, exactly what you want to out of life, and exactly who you want to be.
honestly, dear, this is such a major blessing, because after so long of trying and trying and trying, things are finally coming together in your life.
GROUP FOUR
cards pulled · two of swords, judgement, nine of wands (reversed), seven of swords, the world (reversed), the star.
channelled songs · run this town by jay-z & rihanna. stop by lous and the yakuza. put my hands on you by dean & anderson. paak.
my dear group four ♡ this major blessing is another one of those “blessings in disguise.” though, to be fair, aren’t most blessings?
but, now, for you, this is a blessing of fake friends and fake supporters being revealed and promptly removed from your life. all these snakes in the grass, lurking, spying on you and waiting for the vital moment to strike and hurt you. these people who are faking friendliness to your face, but are waiting to stab you in the back. these people will be made known to you soon. in a drastic way.
what you do with this is up to you, however. will you take this blessing for what it is and cut them out, thus making space for true friends and supporters? for people who actually do have your best interest at heart? or will you forgive and forget, allowing naivety to take the reins? which, may be hard as these may be friends you’ve known for a long time. or a family member. or a lover.
a blessing is a blessing is a blessing, but what’s most important is what we do when we are presented with one. what are you going to do?

to my dad
I don't get people who get mad when their kids ask them questions. Imagine making an entire brand new human being who doesn't know anything about anything yet, and regards you as their primary source of information, and when they try to learn to understand how the world around them works, you just go "how dare you question me you evil little imp."
