Thank you so much for agreeing to do this for me. My question: What do you see happening with DH♋ and I(IO♊). We're in a long distance relationship. We're planning a vacation together in January. Will we end up together? I mean, do we have a future together? Thank you😊
Dear IO, thank you for your question.
So your question is: do IO and DH have a future together? I got:
What will happen?: The Tower
Why will it happen?: 2ofS
Hidden card/bottom of the deck: 3ofW
I'm sorry to say that the cards are not in favor of a long-lasting relationship for DH and you, darling.
The Sun is indeed the brightest card of the deck, it's full of joy and laughter. So I get it that you're expecting to have a beautiful time with DH during your vacations. And you will have your fun, like the teen movies about Holliday love. But it will not be more than that. You might settle with this person for a bit, but not for long. The thing is that you have a lot of hope and expectations for this relationship. I get that, believe me, we all imagine our love life to be a bit like a rom-com, especially if it's a long-distance one. But the reality of living with someone, the cohabitation, compromises, and adaptation you have to make are sometimes harder to make than what we imagined.
You will have a Tower moment. Something will be put into light and you will not like it. It will break your pink glasses and make you rethink your view on this relationship, shatter the illusion and perfectly constructed life you imagined. When the Tower shows up in a love reading, things will not turn out the way you expected. It makes everything that doesn't have a solid foundation in your life crumble. It's hard, harsh, fast, and painful. Like the lightning, it's striking. But the Tower moments in our life are always necessary in order to learn something about ourselves, to be more resilient, and to move on from a situation where we will be nothing else but stuck.
This is further explained by the 2ofS card. The woman in this card is blindfolded, holding 2 swords like she is guarding herself. In perfect equilibrium, in stillness, she is assessing her situation, waiting. But the thing is that she doesn't have the full picture in front of her, she is lacking some crucial information to make a just and enlightened decision. Every relationship is about balance. You're advised to remain patient and avoid pressuring yourself in making an abrupt decision and deciding straightaway that DH is the one and only. I have a sense that you're both sitting on a fence, not wanting to make waves, avoiding THE conversation about your life, your projects, and your future. The thing is that this moment will come even if you're trying to avoid it at all costs (Tower). Up to you to be prepared to face it or not (2ofS, Hermit).
But please, when the Tower moment comes, use both your heart and mind to make a decision. And don't forget to listen to your intuition. Maybe it is already trying to tell you something and you're not listening? Are you purposely heading into this relationship with a blindfold you put yourself on to avoid making a decision? Are you hoping that what you're not seeing (but most likely intuitively knowing) will go away if you do not face this challenge? Are you in denial about something? After all, we see the lightning before we hear the thunder... So you already have some clues about it.
Finally, the Hermit is encouraging you to seek all the answers you need. It is necessary for you to make a decision about this relationship in order to move forward in life (3ofW), either together or separately.
The bright side is that this relationship will help you gain wisdom (Hermit as an outcome) as you will be forced to seek your inner truth. This relationship is teaching you to value yourself, to put your needs and dreams first. The Hermit is single because he knows that he has to focus on himself, on his inner journey, on finding his true path in order to be ready for a relationship. Know yourself first. Accomplish something meaningful for yourself; learn from your strengths and weaknesses; search your light, your passion; chase your dreams; listen to your intuition; gain wisdom. Don't neglect your relationship with yourself as it is the most powerful one you can have. After all, you and yourself is forever...
I hope this reading will help you, darling. Sending much love and light to you. And don't forget to shine - Kali 🌻
