Clean Break
Apr. 26th, 2004 08:04 pmEarlier today, at around a quarter past three pm GMT, I was officially dismissed from work.
And that's it, folks. Looking for something new to do, some new workplace to go to.
I can't say I was at all surprised about this: this has been literally on the cards since a week before last Wednesday, even before that.
I could see that day there'd be trouble when all the wrong kind of cards came up in my spread that morning (Wednesday 14 April). The outcome was, appropriately enough, XVI The Tower - a dire situation for work as much as it was for me.
Recently, I decided to toy with some new cards, the Madam Titania Hardie Fortune Cards. They came up with images of the Scythe, representing a clean break, and more positive cards in the future.
Today, I idly drew those same cards before attending the final meeting. I drew the following: Moon, Snake, Clouds, Key, Man, Book, Tower.
I interpreted them as follows:
"The difficult cards, the Clouds and the Snake, suggest stormy times, and counsel against treachery and one's words being turned against one. Be careful with the Snake, because even your silence will be deliberately twisted and misconstrued.
"The Key suggests, however, that difficulties are nearly at an end, and that you shall prevail. Key and Book adjacent to Man suggest that the future is in my hands; that the future is for me to write, and that I possess the means by which that future can now be written.
Finally, the Key, the Tower and the Moon suggest strong occult influences, perhaps that Destiny is pushing you in a certain direction now, perhaps pushing you in the direction you should have been going back in 2001, before your now former employment began."
I'll have more information as my situation develops.
In the meantime, I feel like celebrating.
I'm free ...
