Ten of Wands– Overburdened. Taking on too many responsibilities. Forward movement is slow but can be achieved. Try to shed some of the load. The Fool is at the beginning of his journey. All possibilities and seeming contradictions exist in this moment. The signs of the zodiac that he so carefully juggles indicate both the science of the heavens and the vastness of human imagination. These symbols represent all types of personality traits. Which one will he end up with? Will he make this important choice or will the choice be made for him by chance? Is he playing when he should be serious, or is his play filled with wisdom? Speaking of playing, is that gold hoop at his feet something he should be paying attention to, or is it a possible distraction? The Fool does not know, nor doe he much care. He lives in the moment, filled with wonder and curiosity, not worried about where the journey will end.Two of Pentacles– Financial planning and budgeting. More money going out than coming in. Waiting for results: medical tests, exams, etc. Five of Cups– Grief, loss, despair, deep depression. However, all is not lost – there is always a way through. Nine of Pentacles– Financial independence. Fulfilment. Contented with what you’ve achieved in life. May indicate an upcoming career break due to pregnancy.
