The inner voice, agitation, dissatisfaction, or inspiration that prompts you to courageously embark on a new journey.
The Two of Pentacles, reversed, is an indication of imbalance in life. This can point to career, relationships, finances, or a multitude of aspects.
This imbalance is causing a lot of anxiety, frustration, and friction for you — and it will continue to worsen if you aren't able to step back and look at the big picture of where things are becoming too much.
It's clear that whatever is at the root of your imbalance will be the thing that prompts a new change in your life.
Find the imbalance — you'll find the call.
The obstacle to your leaving, the habit that wants to hold you back. It's likely it has held you back many times before.
The Four of Swords, reversed, is an indication that while you may understand the need for change and movement, there is a resistance and restlessness that keeps you from moving forward. It could look like:
"I don't have time to work on this right now, I have too many other things to deal with."
"Now isn't great timing."
"Too many people/projects/tasks are depending on me right now."
The issue is that if you don't deal with the issues that are cropping up for you, you run the risk of it affecting your health. Mentally, physically, emotionally.
This card is saying that it's a healthier option to put down some of your obligations, focus on yourself and rest.
The deeply profound challenge or dilemma you will face along the way. This is the lurking shadow that will reveal itself, so you can grow.
The Ace of Swords in general is a very prophetic card. But in the reversed position, it often indicates the confusion, frustration and chaos that accompanies changes, events, experiences.
What this tells me is that in your journey ahead, you will probably face quite a bit of chaotic thoughts as you try to navigate through. It will probably be messy but that is a marker of life — so don't get too hung up on the mess.
This will be a time in your life where self-compassion, kindness and support will come in handy to keep you on the path forward.
The reward, wisdom, skill or blessing you will attain on the journey. This gift is mystical by nature and can't be found in creature comforts.
The Lovers card can be deceiving in a reading as it means so much more than just relationships. The Lovers card indicates a strong sense of harmony. That can mean harmony with another person as well as within yourself. Because of our predilection for human connection, this card can indicate that true healing/progress on our journey culminates or is assisted with the help of another person.
This card also indicates choices and the reminder that we always have an opportunity to make a choice that is aligned with who we are.
From this card and the spread, I think you're poised to take away new connections along with the clarity needed to make the right choice in your life.
What you can expect to encounter upon your return. The "homecoming" impacts your ability to integrate meaningful change. Prepare accordingly.
The Ace of Pentacles is a fantastically positive card, especially in this spread position. It often indicates that the time of disconnect, turbulence and anxiety is coming to a close, and a new cycle of prosperity and abundance is on its way.
Something important to remember though is that this card also means that you've worked hard to arrive at this place — and now is the time to start planting the seeds of change for future growth. If you nurture those seeds with intention and purpose, it will yield long-term results and pay-offs.
Lastly, just because this card indicates positive progress and forward movement — it doesn't mean it's time to slack off on your journey. If anything, now is the time to double down and make sure you are in the right mindset to nurture the seeds you've planted.
