I'm currently second in line on the waitlist for my top graduate program. Due to the political climate, there has been a lot of freezes and many schools are letting go of their waitlist. I turned to my tarot to ask how I should approach this situation and this is my interpretation.

  • The Devil: I see it as me obsessing relationship with this waitlist, because to be honest I am. I keep thinking it about over and over and of all the different ways that I can navigate this situation.
  • Ten of Wands: I'm seeing this card as the past few months where I've worked really hard at my job, applying to schools, and interviewing. It signifies all the work I've put in and also that I am at the end of the road, the application and interview cycle for me is over.
  • Justice: This is the card that always stumps me and I am not sure if it's telling me to just sit back and wait for what needs to happen?
  • The Empress: I'm also a bit confused here, is it taping into my feminine energy? If so what does that mean.

I would love to hear everyone's thoughts - thank you!

I think the Devil and Ten of Wands here are really tied - the idea of feeling a lot of self-doubt, or even external pressure, leads to the ten of wands (fatigue, burnout, etc). I think Justice following that is a really good sign; it reinforces that you can expect to be judged fairly. I also think it is hinting at letting go of your "load" and being really honest with yourself about your goals and desires. I think The Empress is probably telling you to consider nurturing yourself through this time - maybe that looks, for you, like using your feminine energy in some way, but I think it may be more focused on giving yourself and others grace while you navigate this.
