Reading reversed cards
A reversed card is not automatically negative. It can mean the energy is delayed, internal, or being resisted. Ask what is blocking the upright meaning from showing up fully.
What each position means
The positions cover your current situation, the obstacle in your way, your hidden strength, the advice and the likely outcome. Pay special attention to the “strength” card: it often names a skill you are underusing.
An example reading
Say you draw the Eight of Pentacles as your situation, the Five of Wands as the obstacle and The Magician as your strength. You are working hard and learning, but office competition is draining you; your real asset is your ability to pitch ideas, so step forward and present your work.
