- Overall numerology: 12+5++2+4=23; 2+3=5 (change, protection, innovation, variety, freedom versus restriction)
SUMMATION
The overall focus of today’s reading involves the decrease of energetic alignment, unfolding awareness, or balance. Jera involves energetic alignment and unfolding awareness while Amissio involves the decrease or of loss of something. However, Amissio doesn’t necessarily mean a negative thing has happened. It could just mean that something is no longer happening, so remember that Amissio can be more energetic than something more specific.
Today’s cards were the 5 of Cups, 2 of Wands, and the 4 of Wands. The overall numerology is five which suggests something has changed, and beginning with the 5 of Cups, it seems that something has changed that has resulted in grief or loss.
The suit of Cups involves our emotions; therefore, the 5 of Cups depicts a man who is upset about something. He’s standing on the other side of a creek from what may be his home with three overturned cups in front of him while two more stand upright behind him. Given the two cards from the suit of Wands, it may be that he’s lost his job and that loss has affected his home life. From there, a decision needs to be made in the 2 of Wands regarding a new direction involving a career that will improve the situation at home.
Next, the 2 of Wands illustrates a man holding a staff in his left hand while the other staff is affixed to the short wall in front of him creating the impression of a doorway. He holds a globe in his right that helps him define his future. The suit of Wands represents the Fire element and creativity, opportunity, energy, and motivation. So, we can say that after the loss the man experienced in the 5 of Cups, he’s moving forward to pursue new opportunities.
After the decision has been made, happiness returns in the 4 of Wands where we see a man and woman getting married. The number four describes foundation, grounding, structure, and practicality. So, the change that occurred in the 5 of Cups has invoked change that takes the man into a new direction or future. And, from that new direction, the loss experienced in the 5 of Cups has been resolved in the 4 of Wands, either strengthening the existing relationship or with a new relationship beginning, or perhaps with a new career-related partnership that’s developed.
So, if this reading resonates, you could be experiencing loss that involves either your career or a relationship (or both). If so, don’t give up. It may be time to pursue a different direction regarding your career which may improve the situation with a spouse or partner or lead you to establish a relationship with someone new. Or it may involve establishing a new, career-related partnership.
