Reading 1: “9 to 5” by Dolly Parton
Lyrics: “Workin’ nine to five, what a way to make a livin’. Barely gettin’ by, it’s all takin’ and no givin’. They just use your mind, and they never give you credit. It’s enough to drive you crazy if you let it.”
Your Cards: 9 of Swords, 2 of Swords reversed, Page of Swords
Whew, there are a lot of swords here! When swords appear in a tarot reading, they typically point to conflict and power struggles, but also cutting through confusion and obstacles. The 9 of Swords indicates that in the past, your work life created a lot of anxiety and fear. Perhaps there were insecurities around money or your relationships at work. The 2 of Swords indicates that currently, you’re avoiding making a work-related decision, or you’re ignoring important information. Perhaps you’re not satisfied with your current job and know you need to make a difficult choice: either stick to the security of what you’re used to, or move on. Because of your past anxieties and insecurities around money and work, you’re reluctant to let your current job go. But you may find work that is more in alignment with who you are and makes you feel good. The Page of Swords indicates that creativity, intellectual curiosity, and new ideas are in your future this year. You will likely have a new project or job that inspires you and uses your creative power. If you’re not ready or able to leave your current situation, look into side projects that excite you and might lead to something bigger. There are lots of opportunities out there, and your future is bright. Take the lessons you’ve learned about finances and your career, but leave behind the anxiety and scarcity mindset.
Reading 2: “Takin’ Care of Business” by Bachman-Turner Overdrive
Lyrics: “And if your train’s on time, you can get to work by nine, and start your slaving job to get your pay. If you ever get annoyed, look at me, I’m self-employed. I love to work at nothing all day.”
Your Cards: 2 of Cups, 7 of Swords reversed, 2 of Pentacles
The 2 of Cups suggests that at your last job or in the past at your current job, relationships were rewarding and beneficial. You found community, joy, and perhaps even financial gain by connecting with clients or co-workers. The 7 of Swords reversed indicates that you may need to give or demand more transparency in your current work situation. There is a need for honesty, openness, and taking responsibility. Perhaps considering your past success in work relationships will help you feel more confident in expressing yourself openly or asking others for clearer communication. The 2 of Pentacles predicts that in the near future, you will find yourself balancing multiple responsibilities. You could be in a demanding new role where you wear many hats. Or, you might be juggling multiple jobs, or balancing work with something else important, like family. Change is in the air and soon you’ll be super busy. Rest and enjoy your free time now while you can, and prepare for a packed schedule soon!
Reading 3: “Work From Home” by Fifth Harmony ft. Ty Dolla $ign
Lyrics: “I know you’re always on that night shift, but I can’t stand these nights alone. And I don’t need no explanation, ’cause baby, you’re the boss at home.”
Your Cards: The Devil, 9 of Cups, 9 of Wands reversed
The Devil is a major arcana tarot card, which means it is powerful and has a lingering effect. The Devil stands for obsession, addiction, and entrapment. It suggests that in the past, you may have been a workaholic – you felt like you had to overexert yourself to be worth something or to survive. These feelings were very strong and made a lasting impression on you. The 9 of Cups reveals that you’re in a much better place now, finding satisfaction and fulfillment in your current work situation. However, the 9 of Wands reversed warns that you’re going to burn out at the rate you’re going. If you revert back to your workaholic ways, you’ll totally deplete yourself. You’ve got to find some balance between work and personal life. Keep the things you love about your job now and see how you can pare back your responsibilities, and be sure to make plenty of time for the people and passions outside of work.
