“When the river runs wild, patience builds the banks.”
The cards you’ve drawn speak of a time when balance feels elusive, your vision stretches ahead, yet something inside keeps you suspended between choices.
Your first card, Temperance reversed, points to imbalance or a lack of harmony. Traditionally, Temperance urges careful blending, moderation, and self-restraint. When reversed, its calming influence is disrupted. You may be feeling pulled in different directions or struggling to find common ground within yourself. This card hints at inner or outer discord—too much or too little of something, and a struggle to bring it back into a healthy flow.
Next comes the Three of Wands upright, a card that stands for looking forward with hope and planning for what’s next. It shows a figure gazing over the sea, waiting for ships to arrive. This is the card of broad horizons and new opportunities. You are envisioning growth and expansion. The obstacle here is not about a lack of vision—it's about finding steadiness as you anticipate the future.
The Hanged Man reversed closes the spread, offering advice. Upright, this card calls for stillness and surrender to new perspectives. Reversed, it warns against stagnation and resisting needed change. It suggests you might be hanging on too tightly to old viewpoints or routines, even as you yearn to move forward.
Together, these cards tell a story of inner tension that blocks progress. The desire for growth (Three of Wands) runs up against unresolved imbalance (Temperance reversed) and reluctance to let go (Hanged Man reversed). Your vision is clear, but your foundation needs healing. True progress comes when you find calm within and allow yourself to see things differently.
Ask yourself: What small step can you take today to restore balance inside, so your plans can move forward with ease?
