Six of Swords

Having just come through a pretty stressful time, you're at a turning point and are about to enter a new- and more positive- phase in your life. Although your future may still be a bit rocky with some difficult moments ahead, the worst of it is over and once these last hurdles are cleared you'll see tremendous improvement in your daily life. Toss away any outdated behaviors and thought patterns as making a completely fresh start requires you to overcome as many obstacles within yourself as those which are outside of yourself.

Nine of Wands

You may find yourself feeling a bit daunted and overwhelmed by the path ahead of you, but rest assured, you will be more than capable of dealing with all the issues you're currently facing. Life often seems as if there is no possible way to continue, that things are simply too difficult, but this is when you need to dig deep and find that reserve of formidable strength you possess. You've overcome difficult obstacles before and you can do it again this time too. It is vital to conserve your strength right now, to rest when you can and to calm your mind so that you are not only ready physically, but emotionally and mentally as well. Make determination your watchword now and move forward with all the resolve you can muster.

The Hanged Man

You're currently in a transitional period, a state of limbo. You've been changing things up a bit of late and are now no longer exactly sure how to proceed. You may be a bit fearful of what lies ahead, and while you will have to give something up to achieve what is important to you, this is not necessarily a negative thing. In order to move forward and develop as a person, you need to let go of old outworn and outdated patterns of thinking and behavior. You have to learn to surrender control of your ego and to trust that which you cannot see. There is always a force far greater than your own at work in your life and although you may find it hard to focus on the mundane day-to-day minutiae right now, you do need to concentrate on what's important: the inner you, the part of you that holds a much deeper set of values. This is a time of spiritual transformation, of transition, sacrifice and renewal. You are on the threshold of a vast expansion of your consciousness and if you're ready to make that leap of faith into the unknown you will not only find yourself a new person; but one with a newfound sense of peace.

Three of Pentacles

Your hard work and talents are finally paying off! You may soon be getting some recognition for all your industrious behavior of late. Success is yours for the taking, be it in exams at school, your job, a business matter or simply personal projects and creative endeavors you've undertaken. People are appreciating you right now and you deserve their accolades. There may be a financial reward in the offing, or it may be just an extreme sense of self-satisfacti0n and a big boost to your self-esteem.

With willpower and determination, you have the ability and drive to undertake difficult or challenging tasks you set your hand to, to do an amazing job with them, and to bring them to completion.

Death

In movies when the Death card is drawn, you'll usually hear ominous music and an old soothsayer's prediction of a character's death, but in reality this card seldom refers to an actual physical death. Death is the card of change and transformation, of something reaching its conclusion, and the next stage of your life at its beginning. Right now you are going through a radical change of some sort, with old outworn psychological patterns and behaviors that have outlived their purpose giving way to a new you. You musn't be afraid of what your future holds, nor is it healthy to try to hang on to what has been, simply because it feels familiar and safe. Now is the time to embrace your rebirth (be it from singlehood to marriage or marriage to divorce, youth to adulthood, et al) and although you may feel a sense of sadness at the passing of this phase of your life, it's important to remember that nothing is permanent. In order to be transformed you must trust in what lies ahead. We must let one thing die before we can give birth to the new.
