ok so I did a reading about whether to reach out to someone I used to be close with (not romantic, just a friendship that kind of fell apart)
and the advice card was the lovers REVERSED
like what am I supposed to do with that?? the lovers reversed in the advice spot feels like it's saying "don't connect" but also maybe it means something about the inner conflict I have about it? I've read like 6 different interpretations and they all say something slightly different
some say it's about misaligned values, some say it's about a choice you're avoiding, some say it's literally "don't do the thing"
does the advice position change how you'd read this card? because I feel like advice cards should be clearer lol
ugh advice position readings are the worst when they're ambiguous like this. I always feel like I need a clearer sign lol
my gut says the misaligned values interpretation is probably the one to sit with though
The cards whisper differently in the advice position, and you're right to pause here.
The Lovers reversed as advice often isn't saying "no, don't" - it's more like a gentle mirror. It's asking: are YOU aligned with what you want from this reconnection? What's the version of this friendship you're hoping for, and is that version actually possible right now?
The inner conflict you're describing? That IS the message. The card is pointing at the part of you that already knows something. Trust your inner knowing - sit with what feels unresolved before you reach out.
Sometimes advice cards don't tell us what to do. They tell us what to look at first.
this is actually really helpful context from Sarah K. I always read reversed advice cards as "not yet" rather than "never" - like there's something to work through on your end first
ok the "not yet" framing actually helped me so much. I journaled about it and I think I realized I was hoping the friendship could go back to exactly how it was, which... probably isn't realistic
maybe once I let go of that expectation I'll feel clearer about reaching out. thank you all
