ok so ive been doing shadow work spreads for like 2 weeks now and the four of swords reversed has come up in 5 of them?? always in different positions but its definitely trying to tell me something
im someone who struggles with actually resting - like I know I should but I always feel guilty about it. is that what this is about? the card not letting me ignore my avoidance of rest?
has anyone else had a card stalk them specifically during shadow work? feels like it hits different than regular readings somehow
omg yes shadow work readings are SO targeted lol. the cards know exactly where to poke
for me it was the 8 of cups reversed. kept showing up until I finally addressed why I was staying in situations I knew weren't right
the four of swords reversed feels like the universe saying "you're resisting rest and its becoming a problem"... maybe your shadow is the part that feels like rest equals laziness?
the guilt about resting thing is real. my therapist talks about this a lot actually
four of swords reversed could be your psyche literally not letting you avoid that conversation with yourself anymore lol. shadow work is supposed to bring up the stuff we hide from
wait this is super relatable. I pulled the same card during a shadow spread last month and realized I was burning myself out on purpose bc I didnt feel like I deserved downtime?? wild how the cards just... know
thank you all this is really helpful. the "rest equals laziness" thing hit hard. I grew up with parents who were always working and never took breaks so... yeah that tracks
going to journal about this more. appreciate the validation that shadow work cards hit different
following this thread bc same. four of swords in any position always makes me uncomfortable and now im thinking I should explore why
