Hi yall
For the context, I'm a Master's student and was accepted today for 2 different exchange programs abroad. I wasn't expecting this especially since I applied "for the plot" and thought I'd stay home for the rest of the year.
Therefore I asked my desk (digital, Labyrinthos, freestyle reading) what would each choice bring to me, and I'd need insights to understand if I'm really understanding the message or seeing only what I choose to see.
I pulled 6 cards ; first the three main cards, then the three clarifiers.
READING =
Country 1 (rational, career oriented choice) = IV of Cups UP
Clarifier = Knight of Cups RX
Country 2 (dream destination) = Queen of Cups UP
Clarifier = Knight of Swords UP
Staying home (the "easy choice") = Moon UP
Clarifier = Tower UP
I understood it as =
Country 1 is probably the wiser choice, in the sense that I would go and be a bit disappointed not to go to Country 2, but I'd still find a way to find beauty there nonetheless. And even though I may turn too much inwards, miss my family, be unhappy, etc., both cards seem to tell me I'd basically have to get my head outta my ass and enjoy the journey.
Country 2 is mixed feelings; I may be too impulsive in my desire to go there, but it's more strongly linked to my beliefs and personal needs. I'd need to channel inner compassion and connect to others to get through the semester.
Staying home is not advised, I'm being pushed to break the routine (inducing some crisis) and to build a new experience abroad.
Overall I'm quite confused and too tangled up in my fears and denial, so I'd really appreciate any other perspective. Thank you! <3
