I'm about one month into a new relationship that I had initially considered a one-night stand. I'm still not sure if this is a relationship I want to pursue seriously or not. Any insight on the following two cards from a larger spread is appreciated:
Why is he in my life now? STRENGTH
This makes sense to me -- Strength is about patience, about heightened clarity and perception over time -- finesse, the long haul, as opposed to snap decisions, giving up, short-term effort, etc. Being with him even though he is quite different to my usual type is showing me the benefit of putting effort into something I would have merely brushed aside as "too difficult", "too complex" in the past. Also, he is a Leo -- a fairly showy, impressive one at that, which could be related to the lion in the card (RWS).
How will he be in my life in the near future? ACE of CUPS
This one gives me pause. Aces are about new and Cups refer to emotion -- so how would this fit into the future? Would this not have been more appropriate in the position of Past, as in the spark that led to our initial crazy-fast hook-up? Aces are also about potential, so with this card in the future, it speaks to me of limitation -- as in, whatever we have together, in the future, it is limited to the sphere of potential -- it will never progress beyond that sort of emotionally immature stage of infancy. Finally, pregnancy could be suggested, although this is not desired and precautions are obviously in place.
Thoughts?
Many thanks!
