Whether you’re working a nine to five, or hustling on your own, when we lead more fulfilling work lives, we tend to enjoy richer lives overall. In 2014, employees in America spent roughly 47 hours per week at work. That makes it a huge chunk of our time, and if we’re lucky, we might be doing something that is worthwhile, or at least spend it with people that we enjoy. And if things are not so great in our work lives, it means that sadly, it easily can slip into other areas - whether we’re taking it out on our loved ones, or stressing about finances.
These spreads were meant to take a closer look into your work self, and can be used whether you’re happy where you are, and just trying to understand where your current job is going, or whether you’re looking around for other options. In particular, we’re focusing on 3 situations, and we hope you’ll find these useful.
For those of you are looking for a status check on where your work situation is going, this general-purpose spread is meant to do that for you. This can be used for several scenarios; whether you’re pretty happy and are thinking of your longer term trajectory, whether you’re feeling a little blasé about where you are, and perhaps need some reminders about what you’re doing there. If you’re at somewhere you don’t particularly like, but you need to be there for various reasons, this spread might also help you find some of the more positive moments in your job, and ground you in the bigger picture of where you’re going. No matter where you are in your life, it’s always important to consider a longer term picture, whether to find something you can strive for, or to remind you that the tomorrows of the world don’t need to be the same as your today.
Find answers and connect with your inner self. Our app is free forever.
Sometimes we know what we want, but we don’t necessarily have a path to achieve it. This spread is here for you to help you find that path, and the things within you that can help you achieve your goals. Unlike the previous spread, which was more along the lines of using the day to day as a foundation to build a future, this spread uses the first card, your goal, as a means to ground the entire spread, and how you can earn it.
And finally, there are times when work is pretty awful - which is why we built this spread to help you diagnose the issue, and think clearly about ways to overcome it. When the job is shitty, it’s again good to remind yourself of the bigger picture and where you’re going with this. Hopefully the answers you’ll get are eye-opening and help guide the direction in which you can overcome what you’re dealing with.
We hope you enjoyed these cards! If you're looking for the deck featured in this post, the Luminous Spirit Tarot, you can get more information about it here.
