Confirming with my cards this morning…Reading for me…
As I look at this spread, I can see what this situation has really been asking of me today based on what I have gathered. I am deeply disappointed for thinking highly of people that did not deserve it.
The Ten of Wands shows me how much I’ve been carrying, not just my own responsibilities, but the emotional weight, projections, and unresolved issues of other people. I’ve been shouldering burdens that were never meant to be mine, and it’s taken a toll. This card reminds me that exhaustion doesn’t mean weakness ,it means I’ve been strong for too long without enough support.
The Four of Cups tells me that what’s coming toward me now isn’t something I need to engage with. The distractions, the comments, the attempts to provoke a reaction they’re rooted in dissatisfaction and avoidance on the other person’s side. This card reminds me that I don’t have to accept what’s being offered simply because it’s placed in front of me. I’m allowed to decline emotionally, energetically, and mentally. I just purged these energies.
The Devil isn’t about me being trapped, it’s about recognizing manipulation for what it is. It reflects how shame, guilt, or control can be used as tools when someone else feels threatened or powerless. The moment I see that clearly, those chains loosen. Awareness is the release.
The message for me is clear:
I don’t need to defend my past or explain my survival.
I don’t need to absorb projections that don’t belong to me.
My power is in choosing disengagement, not reaction… Things are more clear now…
This reading reminds me that I am stepping out of old dynamics and reclaiming my authority quietly, firmly, and without apology.
