As a magic practitioner, I feel like I'm at a wall. It's like I know what needs to be done, and I know how I would approach it, but there's something still holding me back. I know some of it is fear of rejection, some of it is skepticism, and some of it is executive dysfunction, but-
I guess the meat of the question is how do I let go of the things holding me back? How do I overcome myself in order to grow?
Three Kings Divination Explanation
As a reminder, the D&D Tarot is the querent. In this reading, the Skyrim Tarot and the Neopets Tarot are both Kings visiting from other Courts.
You are the King of Intelligence, head of the Court of Air. Your advice to yourself is the Page of Intelligence (Air) and the Ace of Wisdom (Water). One of the keys here is to trust your own insight more, as your perception has become a well-honed weapon to you despite your skepticism. Another path may be to record things and allow that to serve as evidence to convince your skepticism to chill out. Skepticism is great, but sometimes it needs to sit down and shut its big mouth.
Air and Water are elemental best friends in my practice, working well together and agreeing on many points, and are filled with collaborative approaches.
The visiting dignitary from the Court of Fire is King Coltzan III, the King of Wands. His advice to you is the Ten of Wands (Fire) upright and the Chariot reversed. You may feel like you are in "crunch time", as though you're supposed to be somewhere already, but in trying to force it, you've found yourself stuck with an immovable object. King Coltzan is encouraging you to back up, analyze the issue, and move forward in a different way. What are you doing just because you feel like you have to, rather than what you want to do?
In my practice, Air and Fire are on perfectly good speaking terms and can work together - they're not best friends like Air and Water, but they're also not enemies like Air and Earth.
The visiting dignitary from the Court of Water is the King of Voice, Jurgen Windcaller. His advice to you is the Five of Arms (Air) upright and the Five of Lockpicks (Earth) upright. Jurgen is gently taking your hands and reminding you that sometimes things cannot be forced. It feels unfair to be trying all of this so hard and so much only to feel as though you are getting in your own way. He is saying, "Actually, the problem is not you." You do not need to "overcome" yourself in order to enjoy your practice. Be kinder to yourself, because your current approach is only hurting you more, because you are getting locked into a self-defeating spiral.
In my practice, Air and Water are best friend elements, working together easily. Water and Earth are on speaking and working terms like Air and Fire are, so Water is serving as the bridge here between Air and Earth so you may benefit from Earth's wisdom as well.
Please reblog this with feedback or send feedback to the ask box, as this is part of a test of the Three Kings Divination!
These readings wipe me the hell out, so any insight, munching and crunching, and rambling thoughts you have about the reading will be very helpful with me analyzing how well this spread is doing!
