Daily Draw: Five of Cups (with some extra)
Man, I just keep getting rather depressing cards..
.
The other night I drew a card on what to think about for the upcoming outing we were having, and I got the freakin tower. The sad thing is that there was a tower moment that night, and it was my fault. I did something I shouldn't have, and certainly paid the price for it. Sad thing is, it kind of left me in a "What do I do now?" sort of spot, and I don't have any answer. What do you do when your strongest tower is struck by lightning, set on fire, and burned to the ground?
So then today I pulled the Five of Cups. What I saw was the young man kneeling on the ground, almost like he'd fallen, with the cups around him having fallen over as well. He almost looks like a young child that wanted to make them all stand up at one time, but got frustrated because he simply couldn't. It kind of reminds me of when I was a kid, since my OCD tendencies started back then. Odd thing with me is that I usually only got frustrated on the inside, as opposed to throwing loud outward tantrums. To me, this symbolizes the situation that I've been in recently. I'm getting fed up with all the little things, even though I've tried to stay focused on the big picture.
In regards to the above reading, it makes me wonder if this situation is really as tower-like as it seems. Am I just making a mountain out of a mole hill, or am I supposed to be as upset as I am? It's just like being a child, always getting upset over little things; while the others would simply move on to something easier, I was the one trying to keep the cups from falling.
