With all the readings I’ve been doing regarding work, I’m sure it’s obvious by now that I’m having a lot of issues in that area. I’m at the last stretch though, and depending on how everything turns out, I may either end up leaving the company or possibly “end” what I was doing and get promoted or something similar. I know that sounds contradicting, but the situation is rather complicated.
I’ve recently just finished up the 1st phase of a major mock-up and proposal for a project that we’ve been working on for over a year only to be demolished completely by my liar of a manager’s horrible misdoings. Depending on how well this is received, it’s basically the decisive point for a lot of issues including my position within the company… so in short, it’s very important, and I’ve barely slept all week just trying to complete it.
I sent the files out to G, who is a key figure within the company and also someone who has been helping me greatly in this whole mess. He was the one who gave me this opportunity and assignment, as well as the person who would coordinate with my department head about all this in order to come up with the final verdict. However, I haven’t heard back from him at all after 2 days, which is very strange for him because he’s been waiting for this and is also usually very good at getting back to me immediately. I’m a bit worried, so I drew some cards to ask why I haven’t heard from him yet- with a bit of timing thrown in, as well as the circumstances surrounding the topic. Here’s what I have:





The cards are 28 Gentleman + 17 Storks + 2 Clover + 14 Fox + 31 Sun
No focus card was chosen. I figured I’d let the cards fall where it may. In these types of readings, I like to see the middle card as the theme of the issue at hand. Here, I have the Clover, which is luck, positive outcomes or twist of fate. I sure hope that’s the case here! The other cards seem to support this too. :)
Gentleman is probably referring to G since I was asking about why I haven’t heard from him. Together with Storks, I’m getting the feeling that it means he’s been busy dealing with the shifts and changes that’s happening within the company- the very ones that snowballed from issues mentioned in my reading about work where Storks came up as the theme card.
Taking the reflecting cards into consideration, I’m wondering if Man+Sun means he’s working at pushing for a positive outcome right now, in response to all the terrible shifts happening at work caused by my deceitful manager (Storks+Fox). Stretching it further, maybe he went ahead with his meeting with my department head to show my proposal in hopes of solving the issue quickly and perhaps to also obtain the favorable result before replying to me? It would explain why he hasn’t replied to me yet, but I don’t know… I may be completely reaching just now. Unless I’m slanting it too much in my favor, and the cards are really just saying something simplistic like he’s away on a short vacation, doing stuff related to moving, or just merely not around at the moment to be able to reply. :p
Storks+Clover is about changes that brings luck or success, while Storks+Fox can be about a positive job change or promotion. Clover+Fox also talks about a career opportunity or promotion again… so, wow, that’s multiple combos carrying similar messages. These are the most positive cards I’ve seen regarding my work in a long time!
I do want to note that the Treppner course says Clover+Fox can be illusive luck, so maybe it’d be an opportunity that turned out to be not quite as it seems. I’ll keep that in mind, but the positivity of all the cards makes me think that it should have an overall good outcome regardless.
And finally, there’s Fox+Sun which Sylvie depicts as a professional reputation or a valued employee. I’m hoping this means that my proposal and mock-up goes well, and my department head (who was only recently rotated in a couple of months ago and has been left in the dark in terms of what I can do) will finally see my abilities and ideas at work… and to also recognize them as something valuable.
Looking at the reflecting cards and the history of Fox being my manager and her deceitfulness, I’m wondering if this may also be talking about the full extent of her lies being finally exposed (Fox+Sun)... and that my department head can finally see clearly what the hell has been happening, as well as see that all the work she has been “presenting” to him and claiming as hers were all mine while she made him think that I wasn’t doing anything worthwhile. I guess I’ll know soon either way.
So all in all, it looks like the circumstances following will be quite favorable for me… and taking Clover’s timing into consideration, I will likely hear about all this from G within 2 days. I’ll update this post again when I know the results or hear from him. :)
Update!
@ 9:14PM: G replied today (called and also emailed), so the Clover was right in its quick and within 2 days timing aspect. He has indeed been busy with all the changes going on (Storks), and the overall verdict for now is that he was most definitely very happy with what I had put together, just as the cards had indicated. He’s expanding it even more and giving me free reign to create this project from scratch to be presented and proposed to top-level heads in about a week’s time… to also show them my what my ideas are, my concept for this project, how I would run it, as well as what my capabilities are.
As it is, the cards turned out to be right overall… though I also do wonder if the full effect of the cards are still playing itself out. There should be a final result within 2 weeks time, so perhaps I’ll update again if that turned out to be the case.
