ok so I did a reading about whether I should reach out to someone I had a falling out with. straightforward 3-card spread, past/present/advice.
the advice card was Strength. reversed.
and like... what does that even mean?? is it telling me NOT to reach out because I don't have the strength right now? or is it saying I need to work on my inner strength BEFORE I do anything? or is the reversed energy saying my approach is off somehow?
I've been sitting with this for two days and I keep going in circles. the upright meaning feels so clear (courage, compassion, gentle power) but reversed just feels like... everything is murky
has anyone gotten this card reversed as an advice card? how did you interpret it?
oh I've been here!! strength reversed as advice is such a confusing one
for me it usually means slow down and stop trying to force things. like maybe reaching out right now would come from a place of anxiety or need rather than actual readiness
did anything in the other two cards give you more context?
The cards whisper something gentle here, not scary.
Strength reversed in the advice position often speaks to the WHERE of your power, not the absence of it. It's asking: are you acting from a centered, grounded place — or are you acting from the wound?
Sitting with this for two days is actually the card doing its work. Trust your inner knowing. When you feel genuinely at peace with whatever outcome comes from reaching out (or not reaching out), that's when you'll have your answer.
The card isn't saying you're weak. It's saying: not yet from this place. Tend to yourself first.
sarah k literally said everything i would have said but better lol
I'll just add that I got strength reversed as advice once when I was trying to reconnect with a friend and the reading was basically telling me I was about to grovel when I didn't need to. I took some time, worked through my own feelings, and reached out from a much calmer place a few weeks later. went way better than it would have if i'd done it that day
following this thread because I pulled the same card last week in a different context and still haven't fully figured it out
the two-days-of-spiraling thing is SO real with reversed cards. sometimes I think the confusion IS the message, like the card is making you pause and actually examine things instead of just acting on impulse
