asked what I should do about a decision I've been putting off (whether to move for a job) and pulled temperance reversed as the advice card
like... ok so balance is off somewhere but that's not exactly actionable?? was hoping for something clearer lol
I keep reading it as "stop trying to have it all figured out perfectly before you act" but idk if that's actually right or if im just making it mean what I want it to mean
how do you all interpret temperance reversed when it shows up as advice specifically
I love this question because advice position cards are meant to be a little uncomfortable - they're pointing at the thing you're avoiding, not handing you a script.
Temperance reversed as advice often means: stop trying to blend every option into one perfect middle ground. Sometimes the moderation itself is the excess. You may be over-mixing, overthinking, seeking a balance that doesn't exist yet because the decision genuinely requires a leap.
Ask yourself - am I using "weighing my options" as a socially acceptable way to stall?
oof the "balance itself might be the excess" line just wrecked me a little
I get temperance rx a lot when I'm trying to please everyone in a situation instead of just picking a lane. maybe that's part of it too?
update: sat with this for a few days and I think yall are right, I was using "more research" as a way to avoid just deciding. put in for the job today lol, terrifying but feels right
wait I needed to read this today lol. going through the exact same overthinking spiral about a move decision and "the balance itself might be the excess" line is going straight in my journal
checking back in on this one - hope the new job is treating you well! sometimes the cards ask us to leap, and the leap itself teaches us more than any amount of weighing ever could. trust your inner knowing carried you here for a reason.
