💕 Love
Upright: A flirty, fun connection or a new stage in a relationship where you are exploring new ways to be together. It can also signify a "crush" on someone creative.
Reversed: A "non-starter" in love. You may be interested in someone who is emotionally immature or who isn't ready for a real commitment. Watch for mixed signals.
💼 Career
Upright: A new project at work that allows you to be creative. You may be starting an internship or a new course of study that excites you.

✨ Advice
Upright: "Follow your curiosity." Say yes to new experiences. This is not the time for serious planning, but for play and discovery. Let your inspiration lead the way.
Reversed: "Refine your message." Your ideas are good but scattered. Stop trying to do everything at once and focus on the one thing that truly ignites your soul.
