Curse

Curse is about the way that changing looks to people who value staying the same, about the pressures of the ways that other people have incorporated you as an object in their understandings of their own lives, and about the way that your changing can be a threat to their sense of normal.

Ace. Crisis:

Upright: An aspect of your status quo is abruptly and jarringly changing. View this loss as an opportunity to build back differently.

Reversed: This loss of your status quo is significant. This is a change to be survived. Preserve what you can, and grieve what you can’t.

2. Comfort:

Upright: Finding a place of calm reassurance can help you think through the change that’s coming to you and get the perspective that you need to make good decisions.

Reversed: Finding a way to get comfortable during an uncomfortable change is a way of avoiding growth.

3. Impulse:

Upright: Disregard the instrumental path and follow your actual desires.

Reversed: Your motivation may be misguided and acting impulsively may lead you away from what you truly value.

4. Reputation:

Upright: Thoughtfully consider your reputation as both a resource and an environmental factor in the pursuit of your goals.

Reversed: Concern for your reputation is closing off pathways you need to keep open.

5. Sacrifice:

You need to sacrifice some of the things that you genuinely value in order to give appropriate care and attention to what you plan to keep. Reversed: You feel called to discard things you need to hang onto in order to prove devotion to possibilities that aren’t actually open to you.

6. Reward:

You don’t need to feel guilty about the things, situations, and people in your life that bring you joy. That joy is an indication of your underlying desires. Reversed: Pursuing these pleasures is acclimating you to accepting or seeking harmful circumstances.

7. Gratitude:

It’s okay to take advantage of the opportunities you are being given by the people who love you <3  Reversed: You're considering making choices that you know you don't want to pursue because somebody sacrificed to make those choices available to you.

8. Civility:

Some rules exist only because someone with authority has decided they care about them. Reversed: These rules are a threat; disregard them at your peril.

9. Ordeal:

You have the opportunity to endure hardship to achieve knowledge and self-determination. Reversed: Just because it's hard and you're doing it on purpose doesn't mean it's making you better.

10. Grace:

Punishment is not mandatory. Consider forgiveness. Reversed: You may be feeling pressure to grant grace for things which you find unforgivable.

J. Accolades:

You deserve credit for your accomplishments. Allow your status to be accurately described. Reversed: the accomplishments you choose to take pride in may be backing you into a role you'd rather not play.

Q. Mortality:

You get to exist and that’s awesome. Reversed: Fear of wasting your time may steal more of your life than any misspent endeavor could.

K. Incompleteness:

'Perfect' is a myth and a nonsense word. Embrace falling short, getting halfway, being 'good enough' or 'better than otherwise' rather than 'the best.'

Reversed: You have spent, or are spending, an unconscionable amount of time trying to get something right that will never be right. The sooner you cut your losses the less you will have lost.

The Jokers

are a pushback against a false self-impression of enlightenment, a reminder that getting too mystical and high-minded about your problems can create new problems on its own.
