PICK A PILE- What You’re Pretending Not to Know <3
Because we all need a little hard truth sometimes.
Take a moment. Don’t choose with curiosity. Choose with resistance.
Which pile makes you hesitate — even slightly?
Important note- the pictures used don't belong to me. All credits go to the original owners. And ofcourse, this reading is just for entertainment purposes and minors dni.
PILE 1 — The Truth You’re Softening
If you chose this pile, the truth is not exactly hidden.
You already know what’s going on okay. but you keep rounding the edges again and again so it doesn’t hurt as much.
And You give people the benefit of the doubt long after they’ve shown you exactly who they are!
Tarot shows me someone who understands far more than they admit. but chooses kindness over clarity, hoping empathy will eventually be returned. EVERYTIME.
What you’re pretending not to know is this:-
You are waiting for something to become different that has already shown you its limits.
This isn’t about pessimism. It’s about discernment.
You sense the ceiling. You feel the emotional cap.
You alreyknow how far this situation can actually go.
But part of you keeps softening the truth because accepting it would require a decision. and you’re not ready to make it yet. That's what it is. THAT'S WHAT IT IS.
The cards are gentle with you here. They say, this avoidance was protective. It gave you time to grieve slowly instead of all at once.
But the pretending is starting to cost you energy my love :(
Now let me tell you what happens when you stop pretending:
You regain emotional steadiness. You stop over-giving. You begin responding instead of hoping.
So let me tell you that knowing doesn’t force you to leave. It only asks you to stop lying to yourself about what you’re standing in.
PILE 2 — The Truth You’re Afraid Will Change Everything
Not gonna lie girl, this pile is heavier. Like a bit more intense.
If you chose this, the truth you’re avoiding feels irreversible. And once named, it alters how you see yourself, see someone else, or your entire direction honestly.
Tarot shows me awareness knocking again and again. Maybe through dreams, discomfort, repeated patterns. Like that sinking feeling in your body when you think too hard about it.
What you’re pretending not to know is this:-
You are no longer aligned with something you’ve built your identity around. I know it's harsh but I had to put it out there :(
This could be a relationship, a role, a belief, or even a future you once wanted badly. You’ve outgrown it. but admitting that feels like betrayal. Of your past self. Of expectations. Of the effort you already invested.
So you stay half-present.
The cards are very clear here: your fear isn’t that the truth will hurt. it’s that it will free you, and you don’t yet trust what comes after freedom.
So, What happens when you stop pretending? Let me tell you:
There is grief first. Then relief. Then momentum. Your energy returns in waves.
So listen to me when I say that staying out of fear is still a choice — even if you never say it out loud.
PILE 3 — The Truth About Yourself
Unlike pile 1 and 2, this pile doesn’t focus on another person or situation.
If you chose this, what you’re pretending not to know is something quite powerful i would say and that’s EXACTLY why you avoid it.
Tarot shows me someone who plays smaller than they are, who deflects attention, who downplays their impact. Not out of insecurity alone, but out of self-protection. (Sorry for calling you put like that)
What you’re pretending not to know is this:
You change rooms when you enter them.
You affect people. You leave impressions. You carry presence. And with that comes responsibility i know. visibility, projection, expectation!!!!! Part of you would rather stay underestimated than fully seen. So you shrink your voice. You delay your choices.
You stay “almost” instead of “fully.”
The cards say this was once necessary. It kept you safe. It was useful AT SOME POINT IN YOUR LIFE SURE. OKAY. BUT. But now, pretending not to know your own magnitude is the very thing holding you back.
Let me tell you what happens when you stop pretending:
Your life expands. not dramatically, but unmistakably. People respond differently. Opportunities rearrange. And. THINGS MOVE.
You don’t need to become more.
You need to stop hiding what already is!!! You need to stop hiding what you are!!!!
