Pile 1

Right now you are in this space where everything just feels a bit dull, or heavier than it should be. It is not that your life is falling apart or anything dramatic like that, but your outlook on things is just not where it should be. You look at things and instead of seeing what could go right, or what is already good, you immediately go to what is missing, or what is not happening yet. And while that is understandable, it is also something that is really holding you back in ways you might not fully realise. There are definitely still things you need to do. This is not me saying you can just ignore everything and live in your head or pretend everything is fine. There are responsibilities, things for school or work, things you said you would do that you have not done yet. Even small things like cleaning your space, organising your life a bit more, getting back on track. You already know this, and you have been putting it off, or doing it halfway and then stopping again. It is not that you cannot do it, you just do not feel like it matters enough right now. But it does, just not in the way you think. Because the main thing here is not discipline, or productivity, or you needing to suddenly fix your entire life. The main thing is your mindset. You are moving through your days as if there is nothing really waiting for you, nothing exciting, nothing worth putting that energy in for. And that is simply not true. It is like you forgot that your life is still moving forward, and that there are so many things that can still happen for you. You have a lot to live for, even if you cannot feel it right now. And I know that sounds like something people just say, but in your case it is actually very present. There are people around you who genuinely like you, who enjoy your presence, who feel good when you are there. You might not fully believe that, or you might downplay it, but it is definitely there. You are not as alone in this as you make yourself think sometimes. And your future is not this empty, unclear thing either. You are going to achieve things, and not just small random things, but things that will actually matter to you. You will look back at yourself and realise that this version of you just could not see it yet. That is really what this feels like. You are in a phase where you cannot see forward properly, so you assume there is not much there. But there is, you just are not connected to it right now.

Pile 2

This is something you already know, but you do not actually apply it in your life. You tell yourself that you understand it, you even tell other people this advice, but when it comes down to you actually living it, you just, well, don’t. and it is very visible in the way you give yourself away to other people. not in a dramatic way necessarily, but in small ways, consistent ways, ways that definitely add up over time. You do not find your happiness in other people. and i do not mean that in a cold way, or that you cannot feel joy when others are happy, or that you cannot love deeply. because you definitely can, and you definitely do. but the problem here is that you rely on that as your main source of happiness. and that is where things start to go wrong. You give so much of yourself to others that when they are not there, or when they do not give back the same energy, you feel empty, and that is not because you are empty as a person, it is because you have not been filling your own cup. you have been pouring everything into others and just hoping that somehow it comes back to you in the same way. but it does not really work like that. You think that if you care enough, if you are patient enough, if you are understanding enough, that people will see that and give it back to you. and sometimes they do, but not in the way you need. not in the consistent way you need to actually feel stable and happy. so you end up in this cycle where you are constantly waiting. waiting for someone to notice, waiting for someone to care, waiting for someone to choose you in the way you choose them. And that waiting is what is draining you the most; because while you are waiting, you are not choosing yourself at all. you are not prioritising yourself, not really. you might tell yourself you are, you might do small things here and there, but deep down your focus is still on other people. on how they feel, what they think of you, whether they will stay, whether they will leave. and that is not something you can control, no matter how much you try. You cannot build your happiness on something that is that unstable, and i feel like you know this, definitely. but there is a part of you that does not want to let go of that idea, because it feels safer in a way. it feels like if you just try a bit harder, love a bit more, give a bit more, it will finally work out the way you want it to. but in reality, it just keeps you stuck in the same patterns over and over again.

Pile 3

There is definitely something here about you needing to slow down your thoughts a little bit. Not in a way where you stop thinking completely, because that is just not realistic for you, but more so in a way where you realise that not everything that crosses your mind actually needs to be analysed the way you tend to analyse it. You are very often in your head, and while that can definitely be a strength in some situations, right now it feels like it is doing more harm than good. It makes you see patterns where there are none, it makes you question things that are actually very simple, and it makes you feel like something is always going on even when it really is not. There is this sense that you are waiting for something, or expecting something to happen, or expecting some kind of shift, and because of that you keep looking at everything around you as if it is a clue or a sign leading up to that. But the reminder here is that sometimes there is no build up, there is no hidden message, there is no deeper reasoning behind what is happening. Sometimes things are just neutral. Sometimes nothing is going on, and that is okay, even if it feels uncomfortable to sit in that. You might notice that when things are calm, your mind almost tries to create something to focus on. You replay conversations, you look at small details, you think about how someone said something or why they did not say something, and you try to connect it all into something meaningful. And while yes, sometimes things do have meaning, not everything does. Not every look, not every word, not every small change means something bigger. And you definitely need to start reminding yourself of that more, because right now you are treating everything as if it has the same level of importance, when it just does not. There is also something about balance here. You are not wrong for being intuitive, you are not wrong for picking up on things, but there needs to be a line. Because when everything becomes something you need to figure out, you never really allow yourself to just experience things as they are. You are always one step ahead in your head, trying to understand it, trying to label it, trying to predict it. And that takes you out of the actual moment more than you realise. It also causes you to not enjoy certain things as much, and sometimes even brings you in a headspace filled with anxiety while there is no particular need for it. You do not always need to worry, and if you realise you are worrying it is good to double check whether or not you are ‘genuinely’ in a situation in which it makes sense, or if it was your head coming to a chain of conclusions on its own based on something that could be merely a coincidence.

PICK A CARD: Your inner strength ✦ ‧₊˚ ⋅

hello !! this is my first reading on this blog 𖹭 i was very excited to do this and i hope you guys will enjoy it too ! for my first post , i decided to a reading about what your inner strength is, why you're overlooking it , and how can you tap into that energy . please remember English isn't my first language , so bare with my mistakes . make sure to take a deep breath and calm your mind before choosing a pile . trust your gut feeling and go with whatever pile you feel drawn to , even if it's multiple ones . any feedback is welcome ! 𖹭

DISCLAIMER: all of my readings are for entertainment purposes only, as i am no professional tarot reader. readings are not a substitute for professional legal, financial, medical, or mental health advice. you are encouraged to consult with qualified, licensed professionals for any such concerns. this is a general reading, so take what resonates and leave what doesn't.

PILE 1 - 6 of Wands (upright), Page of Swords (upright), The Emperor (upright)

hello there pile 1!! i see that you're someone who has overcome a lot of stuff in your life and, through a lot of self-work, have successfully matured. your confidence now comes from trusting your gut more and loving yourself for who you are, not from external validation. and people can see that! because of all of this public recognition and self-confidence you now have, you could be a bit impulsive and too excited to jump into doing new stuff, like going on trips or starting a new project. the thrill of it is causing you to overlook the finer details, building a more stable foundation, planning your budget etcetc. the cards are reminding you to think more through and not act on any of your impulses. instead, channel your energy into setting firm boundaries, organizing yourself, and even taking leadership roles to guide others. by doing this, not only you protect your energy, but you can tap into that inner strength of yours. good luck and i hope you enjoyed the small reading, pile 1!

songs i pulled: "Sympathy is a knife" by Charli xcx, "Good Graces" by Sabrina Carpenter, "messier" by Tate McRae

PILE 2 - 4 of Pentacles (upright), 3 of Pentacles (upright), 9 of Cups (reversed)

hello there pile 2!! if i had to ask someone when it came to advice for finances, it'd definitely be you, pile 2! you seem like someone who knows how to handle their money right, has clear boundaries (both in relationships and when it comes to handling your resources), and is independent. you're someone who thinks twice before investing into something and often avoid buying certain stuff, because you'd rather save for something long-term. you're also someone who doesn't shy away from saying "no" when it comes to protect your stuff. but because of being so independent, you could be attempting to do everything by yourself instead of asking for help. you're so disciplined and make sure to go through your routine or tasks in your day-to-day life, that you could be missing out on the bigger picture and forgetting what was your ultimate goal in the first place. instead, try to loosen up a little bit, take a step back, and try to not let your perfectionism control your life by taking breaks, going out, doing anything (even if it's simple) that brings you joy. by doing this, not only you stop neglecting your other aspects in life that aren't finances-related, but you can tap into that inner strength of yours. good luck and i hope you enjoyed the small reading, pile 2!

songs i pulled: "guilty conscience" by Tate McRae, "greedy" by Tate McRae, "Nostalgia" by Tate McRae

PILE 3 - 4 of Swords (reversed), The Tower (reversed), Ace of Cups (reversed)

hello there pile 3!! you might have recently come from a period of insolation because of a burn out, in which this period you had a mental awakening. your changed perspective helped you become wiser and your mind can move forward without being influenced by any negative energy blocking it. you know you survived the storm and that you survived it, which highlights your strength that you developed during the time you rested. despite this, a part of you is resisting this change, because of how new and maybe even underwhelming it might feel all internally, causing you to be really careful about stepping back into your usual life. you might internalize all of this or have a hard time letting go of the older habits, even though you're aware (either consciously or subconsciously) that they're not healthy. instead, try to turn that energy inward and nurture yourself through self-care activities, like journaling, meditation, painting etcetc (anything creativity-related), before trying to give that energy to other people, get into new projects or relationships. by doing this, not only you start treating your emotions with more kindness, but you can tap into that inner strength of yours. good luck and i hope you enjoyed the small reading, pile 3!

𝜗ৎ Pick a Shade: Red. ಄

To  kick  off  this  account,  I’ve  decided  to  run  a  ‘pick  a  picture’  series  based  on  colors  and  their  shades.  It’s  the  first  time  I’ve  done  this  and  I’m  not  quite  sure  how  it  works,  so  I’m  open  to  constructive  criticism  and  suggestions!

Pile 1: Red Dahlia | Pile 2: True Red | Pile 3: Fiery Coral

♡ PILE  1 - Red Dahlia ಄

The  color  of  a  heartbeat  that’s  starting  to  speed  up,  but  hasn’t  turned  into  a  run  yet.  There’s  motion  here,  curiosity,  and  a  kind  of  sharp,  honest  energy  that’s  waking  you  up.

⋆ Cards:  Knight  of  Swords,  Page  of  Swords,  Death ⋆ Warnings  /  Advice:  Knight  of  Cups  reversed,  Nine  of  Swords  reversed

The Knight  of  Swords  says  you’re  ready  to  cut  through  something.  Maybe  you’re  finally  seeing  a  situation  clearly,  or  you  feel  a  strong  urge  to  say  what  you’ve  been  holding  back.  You  want  movement,  answers,  truth  —  and  you  don’t  want  to  wait  for  anyone’s  permission.  This  knight  is  fast,  direct,  sometimes  a  little  reckless.  You’re  not  meant  to  sit  still  right  now.

Next  to  it,  the Page  of  Swords  adds  a  different  flavor:  watchfulness,  learning,  testing.  You’re  not  just  charging  forward;  you’re  also  observing,  gathering  information,  noticing  patterns.  You  might  be  more  aware  of  other  people’s  games,  or  of  your  own.  There’s  a  part  of  you  that’s  learning  how  to  protect  yourself,  how  to  ask  better  questions,  how  to  spot  what’s  real  and  what’s  performance.

And  then Death  lands  in  the  middle  like  a  quiet  thunderclap.  This  isn’t  about  physical  ending;  it’s  about  transformation.  Something  in  you  is  done.  A  role,  a  story,  a  way  of  loving  or  surviving  that  used  to  make  sense  no  longer  fits.  You  can  feel  it.  The  sharpness  of  the  Swords  is  helping  you  see  what  needs  to  be  released.  Death  is  not  here  to  punish  you;  it’s  here  to  make  space. You  are  in  a  phase  of  mental  and  emotional  sharpening.  You’re  cutting  away  illusions,  old  defenses,  and  outdated  versions  of  yourself.  You’re  becoming  someone  who  speaks  more  honestly,  sees  more  clearly,  and  refuses  to  pretend  as  much.

♡ Warnings  /  Advice

Knight  of  Cups  reversed  warns  you  not  to  let  your  emotions  go  underground.  You  might  be  tempted  to  act  “cool”  or  detached,  or  to  swing  between  intense  feelings  and  total  shutdown.  Don’t  use  speed  or  sarcasm  to  avoid  vulnerability.  If  you  feel  something,  name  it  instead  of  drowning  it  or  disguising  it  as  something  else.

Nine  of  Swords  reversed  suggests  the  worst  of  your  anxiety  is  starting  to  loosen.  The  nights  of  overthinking,  the  spirals,  the  “what  if  I  ruined  everything”  stories  —  they’re  still  there,  but  they’re  losing  their  grip.  This  card  invites  you  to  stop  using  fear  as  your  main  advisor.  You  don’t  need  to  torture  yourself  to  be  “responsible.”  Growth  doesn’t  require  punishment.

⤷ A  message  for  you ˎˊ˗

You  don’t  have  to  be  gentle  with  illusions  anymore,  but  try  to  be  gentle  with yourself. Use  this  sharp  energy  to  tell  the  truth,  not  to  bleed  on  people  who  didn’t  cut  you. Let  things  end  that  are  already  dead  inside  you. And  when  anxiety  whispers  that  you’ve  gone  too  far,  remember:  transformation  is  supposed  to  feel  a  little  dangerous.

⋆ Affirmation: I  am  allowed  to  outgrow  who  I  used  to  be.

♡ PILE  2 - True Red ಄

The  color  of  full-on  feeling,  of  heat  that’s  impossible  to  ignore.  This  pile  is  about  pause,  pressure,  and  a  fire  that’s  currently  blocked  or  misdirected.

⋆ Cards:  The  Hanged  Man,  Nine  of  Swords  reversed,  Queen  of  Wands  reversed ⋆ Warnings  /  Advice:  The  High  Priestess  reversed,  King  of  Wands

The  Hanged  Man  is  the  heart  of  this  reading.  You’re  in  a  suspension  period  —  not  stuck  forever,  but  held  in  place  for  a  reason.  Things  aren’t  moving  the  way  you  want,  and  that’s  frustrating,  especially  with  red  energy  that  wants  action.  But  this  card  says:  this  pause  is  part  of  your  initiation.  You’re  being  asked  to  see  things  from  a  different  angle,  to  surrender  control  a  little,  to  let  go  of  the  timeline  you  had  in  mind.  Nothing  is  wasted  here;  you’re  gathering  perspective.

Next  to  it, Nine  of  Swords  reversed  shows  your  mind  starting  to  loosen  its  grip.  The  worst  nightmares,  the  “I’ve  ruined  everything”  loops,  the  3  a.m.  panic  —  they’re  still  present,  but  they’re  losing  their  absolute  power.  You’re  beginning  to  realize  that  not  every  thought  is  truth,  not  every  fear  is  prophecy.  This  is  progress,  even  if  it  doesn’t  feel  like  it.  The  Hanged  Man  and  this  card  together  say:  you’re  unlearning  old  anxiety  patterns  while  you  wait  for  the  next  phase  to  begin.

Then  comes Queen  of  Wands  reversed,  and  this  is  where  the  red  energy  gets  complicated.  The  Queen  of  Wands  is  normally  vibrant,  confident,  magnetic  —  but  reversed,  she’s  exhausted,  doubtful,  or  overcompensating.  You  might  feel:

Drained  of  motivation,  like  your  spark  is  dim.

Jealous  or  insecure  when  you  see  others  thriving.

Like  you’re  performing  confidence  instead  of  feeling  it.

This  doesn’t  mean  you’re  failure;  it  means  your  fire  is  currently  tangled  up  in  pressure,  comparison,  or  burnout.  You’re  trying  to  be  “on”  all  the  time,  and  it’s  costing  you.

Together,  these  cards  say: You’re  in  a  necessary  pause  that’s  forcing  you  to  confront  anxiety  and  a  blocked  sense  of  personal  power.  You’re  being  asked  to  stop  forcing  the  performance  of  strength  and  instead  admit  where  you’re  tired,  uncertain,  or  overwhelmed.

♡ Warnings  /  Advice

The  High  Priestess  reversed  warns  you  not  to  ignore  your  intuition.  You  might  be:

Overthinking  instead  of  listening.

Pushing  away  gut  feelings  because  they  don’t  make  logical  sense.

Numbing  yourself  with  distraction  so  you  don’t  have  to  feel  what’s  underneath.

When  the  High  Priestess  is  reversed,  you’re  disconnected  from  your  inner  knowing.  The  advice:  slow  down  enough  to  hear  the  quiet  messages  —  dreams,  bodily  sensations,  sudden  “no”  or  “yes”  that  arrive  before  your  brain  has  a  story.

King  of  Wands  is  the  energy  you’re  being  invited  to  grow  into.  Whereas  the  reversed  Queen  is  scattered  or  depleted  fire,  the  King  is  focused,  purposeful,  grounded  fire.  He  doesn’t  need  to  prove  anything;  he  moves  with  intention.  This  card  says:

Channel  your  passion  into  one  or  two  key  directions  instead  of  everywhere  at  once.

Lead  your  own  life  with  clarity,  not  drama.

Use  your  willpower  to  create,  not  to  control  or  dominate.

The  King  of  Wands  here  is  your  potential:  a  mature,  directed  version  of  your  red  energy  that  doesn’t  burn  out  or  perform  for  others.

⤷ A  message  for  you ˎˊ˗

This  pause  isn’t  punishment;  it’s  recalibration. You  don’t  have  to  be  “on”  all  the  time  to  be  powerful. Let  your  anxiety  lose  its  absolute  authority  over  you. And  start  asking: If  I  weren’t  trying  to  impress  or  prove  anything,  what  would  I  actually  do  with  this  fire  inside  me?

⋆ Affirmation: I  am  allowed  to  rest  and  still  be  powerful.  My  fire  is  mine  to  direct,  not  to  perform.

♡ PILE  3 - Fiery Coral ಄

The  color  of  fulfilled  desire,  but  also  of  intensity  that  can  overwhelm  if  it  isn’t  guided.  This  pile  is  about  emotional  satisfaction,  disconnection  from  intuition,  and  a  choice  about  your  future.

⋆ Cards:  Nine  of  Cups,  The  High  Priestess  reversed,  Two  of  Wands ⋆ Warnings  /  Advice:  Knight  of  Cups,  Ace  of  Swords

Nine  of  Cups  is  the  “wish  card”  —  contentment,  emotional  fulfillment,  feeling  like  you’ve  gotten  what  you  wanted.  On  one  level,  this  says  you are  capable  of  having  what  you  desire:  love,  recognition,  comfort,  pleasure.  There’s  a  part  of  you  that  knows  how  to  enjoy  life,  that  can  feel  proud  of  what  you’ve  built,  even  if  only  for  a  moment.  This  card  invites  you  to  allow  yourself  satisfaction  without  immediately  spiraling  into  “but  it’s  not  enough.”

Beside  it, The  High  Priestess  reversed  adds  tension.  While  the  Nine  of  Cups  says  “you  can  feel  fulfilled,”  the  reversed  High  Priestess  says  “but  you’re  not  fully  listening  to  what  your  soul  actually  wants.”  You  might:

Chase  what  looks  good  from  the  outside  but  feels  hollow  inside.

Ignore  subtle  red  flags  because  the  situation  feels  emotionally  rewarding.

Confuse  temporary  pleasure  with  long-term  alignment.

There’s  a  risk  of  choosing  comfort  over  truth,  or  staying  in  something  that  feels  good  now  but  doesn’t  match  your  deeper  path.

Two  of  Wands  brings  in  the  future  and  choice.  You’re  at  a  point  where  you  can  see  options:  stay  or  move,  expand  or  consolidate,  deepen  this  path  or  step  toward  something  new.  This  card  often  shows  someone  looking  out  over  their  world,  deciding  what’s  next.  Combined  with  the  Nine  of  Cups  and  reversed  High  Priestess,  it  suggests: You  have  some  level  of  emotional  satisfaction,  but  you’re  being  called  to  decide  whether  this  is really  the  life  you  want  long-term,  or  just  a  familiar  kind  of  comfort.

Together,  these  cards  say: You’re  capable  of  feeling  fulfilled,  but  you’re  at  a  crossroads  between  surface-level  satisfaction  and  a  future  that  aligns  with  your  deeper  truth.  The  question  isn’t  “Can  I  be  happy?”  but  “What  kind  of  happiness  am  I  choosing?”

♡ Warnings  /  Advice

Knight  of  Cups  is  the  energy  you’re  encouraged  to  embody.  This  knight  is  romantic,  sensitive,  guided  by  feeling  and  imagination.  He  follows  what  moves  his  heart,  not  just  what  looks  impressive.  As  advice,  he  says:

Let  yourself  be  guided  by  what  genuinely  moves  you,  not  just  what  soothes  your  ego.

Be  open  to  vulnerability,  tenderness,  and  emotional  honesty.

Pursue  what  feels  like  a  soul-level  attraction,  not  just  a  safe  or  socially  approved  option.

This  knight  helps  you  reconnect  with  the  intuitive,  feeling  side  that  the  reversed  High  Priestess  shows  as  blocked.

Ace  of  Swords  is  the  clarifying  force.  While  the  Knight  of  Cups  brings  heart,  the  Ace  of  Swords  brings  truth,  clarity,  and  a  clean  cut.  It’s  the  moment  of  clear  seeing:  “This  is  what  I  really  want.  This  is  what  I’m  no  longer  willing  to  accept.”  This  card  advises:

Don’t  be  afraid  to  make  a  clear  decision,  even  if  it  disrupts  your  current  comfort.

Use  your  mind  to  support  your  heart,  not  to  rationalize  staying  in  something  misaligned.

Be  willing  to  speak  your  truth,  even  if  it  changes  the  situation.

Together,  Knight  of  Cups  and  Ace  of  Swords  say:  follow  what  moves  your  heart,  but  don’t  shy  away  from  the  clear,  honest  choice  that  aligns  your  outer  life  with  your  inner  truth.

⤷ A  message  for  you ˎˊ˗

You’re  allowed  to  want  fulfillment and  truth. Don’t  settle  for  a  life  that  feels  good  on  the  surface  but  wrong  in  your  bones. Let  your  heart  lead,  and  then  let  your  clarity  cut  away  what  no  longer  matches  it.

⋆ Affirmation: I  choose  a  future  that  feeds  my  soul,  not  just  my  ego.

PICK A CARD: your next little success worth celebrating

Hello and welcome to a new post of mine! This time I will give you some positive news that will come to you in the near future. I hope you like it and feel like your reading resonates with you!

Pile 1

Your next little success worth celebrating is definitely something that happens on a social level, and it is actually something that you have been wanting to happen for a while even if you do not fully admit that to yourself. there seems to have been some sort of conflict between you and another person. This could be a friend, family member, maybe even someone you see more casually like a classmate or colleague. Whatever it was, it created this strange tension where things just do not feel normal anymore. It is not always a huge dramatic fight either, for some of you it was honestly something pretty small but it kept lingering in the air and now neither of you really know how to approach the other again. What is going to happen next though is that this situation will definitely soften. There will be some sort of moment where the energy between you shifts. It might be a conversation, but for some of you it might not even be a full conversation yet. It could just be a small interaction where you notice that the other person is not as cold anymore, or that they approach you in a way that feels a bit more open. And that moment is honestly the little success here, because it shows that the tension that was there is not permanent. Both you and this other person have actually been thinking about the situation more than you would like to admit. Neither of you liked how things ended or how awkward things became. But at the same time, both of you were also a bit stubborn about it, thinking the other person should maybe come forward first. Because of that it kind of stayed stuck for longer than it really needed to. The shift that is coming is definitely something that will make you feel relief more than anything else. It is not necessarily this huge emotional apology scene where everything gets explained perfectly. For some of you it honestly might just be a normal conversation again, as if nothing really happened. But that is exactly the point. The success is that the situation does not stay uncomfortable forever. You will notice that once that first moment happens, things will start to feel lighter again between you two. The way you interact becomes easier, the tension leaves the room a bit. And you might even realise that both of you were kind of overthinking the entire thing. So this success is small, but it is definitely meaningful. It shows that not every disagreement ruins something forever, and that people can move past things even if it takes a little while. And when that moment happens you will definitely feel that quiet relief of thinking “okay, this is finally normal again.”

Your next little success worth celebrating is honestly just going to be a day where everything goes right. And that might sound like it is not a success because it is just a normal day, but it definitely is. Especially because lately it feels like things are either slightly stressful, tiring, or just not fully going the way you would want them to. So having a day where everything simply aligns well is definitely something worth celebrating. This is a day where you wake up and you actually feel rested. Not the type of rested where you technically slept enough hours but still feel tired, but genuinely rested. You will feel energetic pretty much the entire day and that alone is already something that makes the whole day feel way better. It is like your body is finally cooperating with you instead of constantly feeling a bit drained or distracted. During this day there is also definitely something small that goes well for you in terms of achievement. This could be something like getting a grade back that is way better than you expected, or receiving feedback from someone that is actually really positive. It could even be something small like finishing a task that you have been procrastinating for a while and realising it was not that hard after all. The thing itself is not extremely big, but it just adds to the feeling that the day is going well. Some of you might still feel like ‘’oh... is this it? Just a nice day?’’, but this day is most definitely one that is so good that it just completely recharges you. Whatever you have been carrying with you, you are going to be able to let it go a bit more after this day. If you were worried about the future, this day will make you a bit more hopeful, if you were in a negative spiral, this day will help make it easier to get you out of it etc. This day is not just one about having little things that go well for you, this day is one that will help you with days further ahead. So do not feel sad when reading this, having hoped that your little success was going to be more impactful. Your little success is not just one specific thing in general, it is going to be a day full of little successes that all go your way, and you should see it this way as well. Not just this, these little successes have long-term effect and will do you well. See it as a bright day in a more rainy time in the year that will make you a bit more optimistic for the future ahead.

Your next little success worth celebrating is definitely something you have been trying to finish for a while now. It is not something new that suddenly appeared in your life, it is something that has been sitting there for some time already. And every time you looked at it you kind of felt that little pressure again of “I still have to do that”. It is definitely one of those things that are not extremely big life changing achievements, but it has been sitting in the back of your mind long enough that finishing it will feel like a huge relief. For many of you this really looks like finishing something very literal. A book you have been reading for a long time, maybe one that you stopped halfway through and recently picked up again. Or an artwork you have been slowly working on, maybe one that takes a lot of patience and detail so it just naturally takes a long time before it is done. It could also definitely be something connected to education or work, like a paper, assignment, report, or project that has been stretching itself out longer than you expected. The thing about this success is that it is less about excitement and more about relief. When you finally finish it you will sit there for a moment and just feel that pressure leave your shoulders a bit. Because every time you thought about it before there was always this small stress attached to it, even if you tried to ignore it. It is almost like having something on a to-do list that you keep moving to the next day again and again. What is interesting here is that you are definitely closer to finishing it than you think. It might feel like there is still a lot left, but in reality most of the work has already been done. It is more the final push, the last bit of motivation that needs to happen. When you do finish this thing there might not be a lot of people around you celebrating it or even noticing it. But internally it will feel pretty big. Because you know how long it has been hanging over you. You know the little moments where you thought about it and felt slightly guilty for not finishing it yet. And once it is done you will probably look at it and think “that really was not as impossible as I made it in my head”. And that feeling alone is definitely worth celebrating, even if it is just you closing the book, submitting the assignment, or putting the final detail on the artwork and just sitting there for a second thinking finally.

You are definitely going to get there. Whatever that goal is that you keep thinking about, whatever that thing is that sometimes keeps you awake because you want it so badly. You are not someone who is dreaming about impossible things. You are someone who is slowly making their way towards it, even if it does not always feel like that. I think lately you have been looking too much at how much further you still have to go rather than how much you already crossed. And that makes everything feel impossible when really, it is not. I really need you to realise something. If the version of you from maybe five years ago could see you now they would definitely think you are the coolest person ever. They would probably think you figured everything out. They would look at the things you can do now as something impossible because back then they simply could not imagine themselves reaching this point. You have so much more knowledge now. You know how people work better. You know yourself better. You recovered from things you thought would always stay with you. You learned lessons you only could've learned by actually living through them. That is something nobody can take away from you anymore. I also feel like sometimes you still look at yourself through the eyes of your younger self. As if you are still that person with no options, no freedom, no experience. But you are not anymore. There are so many more doors open to you now than there ever were before. Maybe you do not notice them because they slowly appeared over the years instead of all at once. But they are definitely there. You can make decisions now that younger you simply could not make. You have more control over your own future than you realise. Sometimes you still doubt yourself because you remember making mistakes. But everyone makes mistakes. The difference is that now you actually learned from them. I do not think you realise how much your thinking has changed over the years. Situations that would've completely destroyed you years ago are now things you can actually deal with. Maybe not perfectly, but definitely much better than before. That says enough already.

I think one of the biggest messages here is definitely that you are trying way too hard. Not because you are lazy, or because you are not doing enough. It is actually the complete opposite. You are doing absolutely everything you can and then you still go to sleep thinking you should have done more. You have this idea in your head that if you are not constantly improving, constantly achieving, then you are somehow falling behind. But you are not. You are definitely not behind anyone. You are comparing your whole life to little moments you see from other people, and then you expect yourself to somehow catch up with every single person at once. That is simply impossible. You expect yourself to achieve absolutely everything. It is almost like you believe your life only has value if you become exceptional at everything you touch. You want the Nobel prize, the Grammy, the perfect career, the perfect relationships, the perfect hobbies, the perfect body, the perfect mental health. It is just too much. You have put the bar so high that even if you achieve something amazing you barely allow yourself to celebrate it because you are already thinking about the next thing. Nothing ever feels enough because your expectations keep moving further away. The thing is, I do not think you realise this. If you genuinely could have done more, you would have already done it. You are not someone who avoids responsibility. You are not someone who just sits around all day wondering why life is not changing. You genuinely try. Probably more than most people around you. So whenever you tell yourself you should just work harder, I honestly think that is one of the least helpful things you can tell yourself. You have already reached the point where working harder is no longer helping you. I also really feel like if you continue doing things this way you are heading straight towards burnout. Maybe not tomorrow, maybe not next month, but eventually. You cannot keep expecting yourself to perform at one hundred and fifty percent every single day. No one can. The funny thing is that by trying to achieve everything as quickly as possible, you are actually slowing yourself down. Because eventually your body will force you to rest whether you like it or not. Giving yourself breaks now actually lets you achieve more in the long run.

One thing you definitely need to hear right now is that your life is not a photo, it is a movie. And I think right now you are looking at one frame of that movie and deciding that this one frame is somehow the entire story. It is as if you paused everything on one bad moment and convinced yourself this is how everything is always going to be. But that is just not how life works. Movies are not remembered because one scene was bad, they are remembered because you watched the entire thing and saw where everything eventually ended up. If someone only watched the first thirty minutes of a movie they would probably think everything is terrible. The main character loses people, things do not work out, they make mistakes, they cry, they fail. Frankly, if movies ended halfway through nobody would even like them because they would all just be sad. But they do not end there. They keep going. And your life is exactly the same. Right now might definitely not be the best chapter. It might feel like nothing is working, like every single thing you try somehow falls apart, or maybe you are just tired of waiting for things to finally change. But this is not the ending. It is just the middle. You are somewhere in-between where things are messy and confusing and you cannot yet see why everything had to happen this way. I also feel like some of you compare your current moment to other people's entire movies. You look at someone who seems happy, successful or settled and compare it to your current chapter. But you are comparing your middle to someone else's ending, or at least to the highlights they allow people to see. You have absolutely no idea what happened before they got there. They also had days where they thought things would never get better. They also had moments where they questioned themselves. That is just part of living really. There are definitely lovely things waiting for you. There are people you have not met yet who are going to make your life feel warmer. There are places you have not been yet that are going to become your favourite places in the world. There are moments that right now you cannot even imagine existing because you are so focused on what is happening today. But today is just today. It is not forever. One rainy day does not suddenly mean the whole year is rain, and one difficult period does not suddenly mean your whole life is going to stay this way.
