Five of Pentacles today. Upright.
This card always makes me feel slightly distressed and upset. It's the design on it, I guess. That beautiful stained glass window but then, those poor people in the snow - well, anyway. It doesn't help that my handbook is very doom and gloom in its excessively simple interpretation. I had to look up some alternates because, like I've mentioned at all, the vintage book I have is pretty much useless when it comes to the minor arcana (and... everything, actually).
Aaanyway. Most of the interpretations seem very money-focused. And I will confess to having some anxieties of late regarding all that. The economy is... what it is. And my job is what it is. And while I'm still pretty fortunate, I do worry.
I guess the important things for me to consider here are that I need to keep my anxieties in check, and that I should in the near future focus on work-related things. There are some things that I've let slip a little, and I really should attend to that. Mostly just little things, but it piles up after a while.
...And I really should finish my filing, now that I think of it -
I guess when it comes to important things (like money and whatnot) I shove my anxieties under the table and pretend that nothing is wrong. When it comes to things that are more social, it's easier, in a way, even if I get very stressed out - because I can just tell myself that my brain is being stupid, and it's not that important anyway. But this kind of thing is important, telling myself that I'm worrying about nothing isn't going to help anything. It requires action, too.
Sigh. Sigh. Okay, well. I'll see about taking care of this. In small steps.
