and this is why i have tarot cards.....
Situation: Strength
The Strength card calls for a sober and ethical person to provide some direction. He or she may be able to neutralize conflicts and point everyone toward living in harmony with all of creation.
The situation calls out for an individual who can bridge the gap between different kinds of consciousness, including possibly other species. Such a person projects a natural moral authority and stimulates others to rise to their highest selves. Such inspirational strength will improve any situation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Challenges/ Opportunities: The Emperor
The Emperor in this position challenges you to use whatever opportunities are available, without forgetting your personal aspirations. The Emperor often serves as a role model because his optimism and expansiveness are so attractive.
If you are presently being perceived as an Emperor type of personality, you have an opportunity to win friends, influence others and help direct undertakings. As you strive to advocate for the greater good for the greatest number, don't neglect your own desires. You wouldn't be offered the opportunity of leadership if you didn't deserve personal fulfillment in the process.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Advice: Death
Death in this position advises you to detach from the old order. You may want to close accounts, complete unfinished tasks, and gather your harvest. It is time to move on. If you cut the cords that have bound you to old ways and outdated conventions, you could free yourself to join the sweep of incoming light. This is not an excuse to reject others or hurt them in any way. It is simply a time to move toward your ultimate interests.
Do not allow nostalgia and outworn loyalties to hold you back. Be willing to go through whatever it takes to get to where you really want to be.

Daily Lesson: Five of Cups
When the Five of Cups lands in this position, it's time to admit that you might have blown it. Inherent, and possibly inherited, weaknesses overtook you during what you had hoped would be a moment of strength. Such an honest admission will help you evolve beyond experiences that conditioned you to deny responsibility and blame others.
This card asks that you take personal responsibility for your unfinished business. The pattern that originated in past generations must be broken. Don't be shaming anyone else in order to cover up your part. The buck stops here. Take responsibility and start over.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Near Future: The Empress
The Empress in this position indicates that spirit is about to intervene in your life situation. It may be just enough to give you a glimpse of the miraculous. It may be more. You may or may not know who bestows such good fortune, but the care and nurturing that will result come as no accident.
You will come to see that you are not alone, that you are being watched over. What appears to be coincidental good luck may actually be the result of a series of good choices you have made. It's your turn to have things work out. It's time to be blessed and nurtured. Relax in the knowledge that you are in good hands and that you are worthy of receiving this generous embrace.
*so anyone who knows whats been going through my head lately, understand why tarot calms and at the same time urges me into action. this actually reeally wiped me out and im done typing for now, but i wanted to elaborate for myself, the longer i looked at the cards the more sense i got out of them. Tell me if you have any clue what im talking about, its nice when someone catches on without me needing to explain at length or in detail. this is the only peek you get, so take it
