Celebrating Seeds


Today's cards are presented in a Past, Present, and Future layout. In the past, I have drawn the Ace of Pentacles. For the now (or today), I have the 3 of Cups. And the Page of Pentacles sits in my future.

In the Ace of Pentacles, we see a pathway. It leads to a mountain in the distance, which I would intuit to symbolise a goal. The route can not be seen so easily, and since this card is only one of possibility, is yet unknown. Potential can be seen in a single vine that snakes itself around the trunk on the left. The trees in the card are yet to sprout any leaves, but they will at some point. The small dragons have hatched on a ledge of safety and their journey is just beginning. This card is in my past and has an influence on today. A journey of some kind has already been started.

I link this card to my much-awaited second interview. The mountain (or destination) is a symbol of the job. This whole process was hatched over a month ago and I am still travelling along this road of the unknown. If it is not the interview, then the card highlights something that was recently started, which will have an affect on today.

The central card is for today. The 3 of Cups is one of celebration and community. I would like to think that it will bring news of my interview or something concerned with my working life. The two cards that surround it are from the Pentacle suit, which might suggest issues regarding work and my career. The Page of Pentacles emphasises a new beginning, when in a spread with the Ace. Thinking forward, this would be one of learning and new skills for the near future.

Even though I am doubtful that I will hear about my second interview until next week, these cards suggest otherwise. If they do not bring news just yet, then I was wondering if they suggest another seed that has been sewn in the recent past. Could a friend of mine be pregnant and in the mood to celebrate?
