Impromptu Tarot Reading

So, last night after I wrote about how terribly lazy I felt, I decided that before i went to bed I'd do a little Tarot reading and ask for a little guidance. Now, I'm no Tarot expert by any stretch, I've only just started to learn the deck and so i decided that trying a full spread would just make things more complicated than I was looking for at 3 a.m. I just got out my little owl totem for wisdom, lit a candle and some sage incense (for sage advice, LMAO. Oh, how I love puns...) and I shuffled, pulled one card as I asked for advice about the present, then reshuffled and asked for advice about the future. For the Present, I drew the Nine of Pentacles, which is significant for financial matters. Since I'm applying at a temp agency on Monday and looking to get out of the dead end job I'm in now, it seems that I'm on the right track in changing my work situation.

For the Future, I drew The Hermit, which I admit made me panic for a moment since I hate the idea of me dying alone with my cat. My plans to move back into the city are to make me less of a hermit, in fact. Despite all that, the description of the Hermit card was significant to the seeking of answers, and the realization that one already has them, they just require introspection in order to reach them. Granted that I want to refocus on my spirituality, that could also be an indication that I'm in the midst of that search for answers, and maybe one day I'll have them, much like the Hermit.

Comment by Continuous Plural on June 24, 2011 at 1:58am: It's interesting, both the cards you drew have to do with a feeling of isolation...that's not to say loneliness, but being alone and away from others.

The 9 of Pentacles is a great card, on one level it shows money coming to you from the outside...look for a check in the mail or from an unexpected source, like a tax check, something along those lines.

On another level, you still feel a bit incomplete somehow....to everyone else, you look like you have it all. But in yourself, there's a sense that you are alone in finding a purpose. An image of a woman in a growth cycle figuring out her next move. The Hermit is a higher vibration of this same idea, but the growth has occurred. In the future, you will be this Hermit, this person who has the inner satisfaction and is alone, but not lonely.

Just to add more to your already well worded interpretation.
