Fortune interpretation from two cards

The characteristics of this year

 The “17. The Star” card represents a year where you guide yourself, seeking new hope to rejuvenate your life. The “12. The Hanged Man” card signifies a year of discipline and effort, where you forcibly control yourself and engage in self-improvement.

 Therefore, this year marks the beginning of an upward trajectory in your life, where you’ll take the time to reflect on yourself and rejuvenate your life at your own pace. With the influence of “The Hanged Man,” there may be elements of conflict and self-improvement mixed in. However, whether it’s through setting clear goals and moving forward with determination or by taking a slow and introspective approach, this year will be dedicated to self-reflection and contemplation about the direction of your life.

 During this time, you’ll be searching for the hopeful stars and spending time introspecting. While it’s important not to set overly ambitious goals, this period of self-reflection may lead you to gain a unique perspective. This new perspective can serve as a catalyst for significant personal growth and may open up new opportunities in your life.

Trends in love and marriage

Unrequited love

 Just thinking about the other person makes your heart flutter, and every day feels vibrant. The other person is a shining object of admiration, bringing light into your life. They are an irreplaceable presence. However, fulfillment is not guaranteed. Sometimes, your feelings may lose their spark, and your charm may wither, fading from the other person’s view. Avoid direct approaches.

In a relationship

 There’s a rare sense of floating associated with it. You can freely discuss things like dreams and hopes that are hard to voice in public. You can genuinely empathize with each other. A notable characteristic is the absence of practical conversations. Starting to impose restrictions can lead to the end. The excitement wanes as it loses its freshness. It becomes routine. Love and marriage are different.

Encounter

 Meeting someone of the opposite sex with whom you can bond through art. It may start with a friend who shares the same hobby. Love between a celebrity and a fan. Efforts that miss the mark. Neglecting self-improvement. Not quite polished. Work on yourself to become more romantic.

Marriage

 You can see marriage in the distant future, but there are no immediate and realistic developments or changes leading to marriage right now. Your ideals are leading the way. The honeymoon phase you’ve seen in dramas will be like ‘a castle in the sand.’ The first step is to continue your current relationship. You may lose interest in marriage itself. If you become distant and stay unpretentious, the chances may drift further away in a vicious cycle. Seeking too much drama in marriage can backfire.

Health

 Be cautious of diseases and injuries related to sensory functions.

The characteristics of this year

“A year to regenerate your life”

 ”The Star” is a card of self-guided hope, so this year will be a year of seeking new hope and regenerating your life.

 In the past few years, your fortunes may have been unfavorable, and life may have felt unstable, but you are finally entering a period of stability. Therefore, this year marks the beginning of an upward trend in your fortunes, where you raise the star of hope in your life and start moving towards its realization. It won’t be an immediate surge in fortune; instead, you’ll start by discovering new stars of hope and slowly regenerating your life from there.

 You’ll be asking yourself, “How can I be essential in this world?” Under this belief, you’ll communicate with your own potential and sensibility, and gradually begin taking action.

 This approach will lead to a way of life where you realize positive new beginnings and the ideal vision you’ve imagined. You’ll find your own guiding star and lead yourself in the direction you want to go.

 Throughout the year, remain true to yourself. Listen to your intuition and flashes of insight. No matter the circumstances, you are still you. Even if the world around you changes, or you face setbacks and losses, your essence remains unchanged, and possibilities still exist.

 Your ideals may start from vague and small beginnings, often born from inspiration and sensibility. However, the most important thing this year is to hold on to hope.

Warning

“Unrealistically high ideals”

 This year, you are likely to be more self-reliant, and you may find that everything can become self-contained if you change your perspective.

 You may show less interest in the feelings of others in many situations, and a self-centered attitude may prevail, potentially leading to a lack of communication with those around you.

 The ideals you set for yourself starting this year should ideally be realistic. If your ideals are too high or far from your abilities, you may find yourself pursuing those ideals exclusively in your future life, neglecting the realities of life. So, it’s important to be cautious about setting unrealistic ideals.

The characteristics of this year

“A year of training and discipline”

 ”The Hanged Man” is a card associated with training and effort, so this year is likely to be one where you forcefully control yourself and have experiences akin to training.

 Throughout the year, you will carry a passionate inner fire while simultaneously exercising restraint on the surface. This duality may create a constant sense of inner conflict.

 You’ll view the world from a different perspective, often feeling like you’re observing it from an inverted position, and you’ll impose restrictions on your own actions. Just as in meditation, you’ll quietly contemplate and engage with yourself.

 Perhaps it’s your intuitive understanding of your own immaturity, but you won’t act on frivolous reasons. Therefore, you won’t easily succumb to trends or the opinions of others.

 As a result, this year, you may gain a rather unique perspective within yourself. This unique viewpoint could be the catalyst for significant personal development and the creation of new opportunities in your life.

 The number 12 represents the end or completion of a cycle. Rather than simply pursuing your current self indefinitely, it might be a good year to accept and settle into who you are, then consider the next cycle of your life consciously.

Warning

“A year of becoming contrary or rebellious”

 This year, due to adopting different perspectives and attitudes from the mainstream, you may be perceived as contrary or rebellious. What’s more, there might be a part of you that enjoys this role. You might find yourself opposing people’s opinions or not feeling pleased even when praised. It can become challenging for you to express your own opinions straightforwardly.

 While you may resist being influenced or swept along by those around you, in reality, you might still be influenced and swayed by the opinions of others. In some cases, you may even completely lose sight of your true feelings.
