The cards are Queen of Rods, 6 of Cups, Knight of Pentacles

Which am I? The Queen of Rods with her fiery, passionate nature… filled with her creative ideas, wanting to pursue these dreams and see her visions come to life? Or the Knight of Pentacles with his ever reliable self who diligently continues on the practical path to get things done in a nonsensical fashion, because he has obligations and he’s nothing short of responsible? It is, after all, the only proper way to be… isn’t it?

After the kind of mental self-beating I had yesterday, it really should come as no surprise that these were the cards I drew today. The split between my two inner selves have only become more prominent- the restlessness in me who desires so strongly to go chasing after my dreams and the more sensible side of me that’s demanding I stay put and keep things stable and safe.

It’s obvious as well, that my memories of those simpler days of the past has been featuring quite prominently in my mind. These nostalgic feelings and remembering what it was that I wanted out of my life have been both a wake-up call and my worst enemy in all this. Yet in some ways, as difficult as this stage might be for me, it is also something that I need to face.

So how can I make a choice between the two? I can’t and I don’t, as one is as much a part of me as the other. And though the 6 of Cups may be wreaking havoc in my self right now, I’m also recognizing the harmony between the boy and the girl in the card. Somehow, I need to find a way to reconcile the differences and find a balance within myself. Whether the Queen of Wands or the Knight of Pentacles, they can both be a strength in their own right after all…
