Epidemic of Regret Over the Past - Five of Cups Coming Up Often in Tarot Readings

 Distraught professionals are coming for Tarot readings. Their "presenting" problem may be angst over going for a promotion or the possibility of a Reduction-in-Force. But soon enough what emerges is the subtext: They are experiencing extreme regret over decisions made in the past.

That is exactly why the Five of Cups is being pulled so frequently in Tarot sessions. In that card there is the professional with the body language of despair. The preoccupation is with the three cups associated with the past. Label those "spilled milk." There is no connection with the two cups symbolizing present possibilities. 

This professional has become the new Everyman and Everywoman. If he or she is willing to change (The Tower Card) then that professional will ask me how to find an exit ramp from the past. The first and most important step is to accept two fundaments of inner transformation:

  • There are no re-dos of the past. It was what it was. That includes both what is perceived as negative and what had been great successes. About the latter, there is the adage in business that nothing fails like success. That's because the vivid memory of that past success can generate blindspots in strategic thinking about the present. So many corporations such as IBM has stumbled because of being locked into what had been success formulas at one time. That time had passed.

  • Regret about the past represents a total fantasy about, if X had been done instead of Y, there would be this or that outcome. No one knows that. X wasn't done. The laid-off tech workers who regret not going to medical school have no data how that career path would have played out. Would they have become substance abusers? Could they have navigated the politics? How about all the burnout? And could they have adopted to the new business models in healthcare?
I pass along this image to clients: Spilled milk sours. The stench drives away the people who could be useful in a career.

Painful Long Half-Life of Trauma: Did Prince William Marry His Mother?

Image
  It was September 6, 1997. A number of psychics such as myself entered a grief trance. We became one with the trauma of Princes William and Harry as they walked behind the coffin of their mother Diana. The pain, I keep picking up, likely hasn’t abated in substantive ways. (Currently, it is agreed, placing them in that forever visual of their personal histories was thoughtless and cruel.) Here we are. It is said that boys marry their mother and Harry seemed to do exactly that in choosing Meghan Markle. Like Diana, she was never going to fit in. There was going to be lots of hurt to go around.  The surprise, though, is that the supposedly less fragile William might also have married his mother in choosing Kate Middleton. We don’t know that, do we? But there is reason to speculate that’s might have been exactly what occurred. Amid the conspiracy theories circling about MIA Middleton (There has been a recent photo op of her mother driving her in car), is this one in the 03-...

The Elite Psychics - Cassanda Vanzant Provides Solution for Getting Clarity, Finally

Image
  Ever since The New York Times saluted the Tarot in April 2021as a tool for self-awareness and introspection, there has been massive interest in psychic readings. More recently the media designated psychics as the new therapists. However, that left those seeking guidance in a pickle. The issue is: How to select a psychic who is 1) authentic 2) caring and 3) will provide the results you need.  Long-time psychic Cassandra Vanzant observed that confusion. Her Ah-Ha moment was to develop a fresh approach to the "delivery" of the psychic connection. That is The Elite Psychics.  Excited about this breakthrough development in psychic services, I requested an exclusive interview with Vanzant.  *************************************************** THE ELITE PSYCHICS Q: With all the internet psychic sites to choose from, what makes your site, The Elite Psychics, different?

J. Michael Cline's Pain

Image
"Fandango founder [J. Michael Cline] left heartbreaking suicide note before jumping from NYC luxury hotel: ‘I can’t explain the pain’" -  New York Post , July 18, 2024  Cline, a very successful serial entrepreneur, was not alone in being unable to articulate his pain. So many suffering human beings decide to have a Tarot reading because they are unable to tell even themselves 1) What hurts and 2) How overwhelming that pain is. Our society demands that its members always be in complete control. That's the face you have to present to the world. The Tarot reader and the client work together to bring the distress to the surface. The New York Times explained how the Tarot is a tool for awareness.  Sometimes the pain is rooted in the unreal, such as the ruminations of the clinically depressed. They experience themselves as failures, on every level.  It could be temporary. There are those setbacks such the loss of the job.  Or it could be long-term as with chronic hea...
