You may be feeling some kind of lack in your life. This is likely a financial or health thing, but it’s not limited to those options - the word “loneliness” comes to mind.
While the Five of Pentacles usually indicates a “lack mindset,” the actual lack is a real thing. Others may tell you that your mindset is the cause of your lack, but that particular belief structure is flawed - created and spread by people who don’t see the privilege that enabled them to get to the financial, spiritual, and personal state that they promise to others.
Don’t get me wrong, mindset plays a huge part in everything we do, but so do the circumstances we were born into - where we live, what we look like, and even our parents, or lack thereof- are just a few examples. Much of the spiritual and motivational stuff out there is truly great advice, but all advice should be considered and measured through the lens of your own experience and circumstances.
We can take responsibility for our actions and mindset and still recognize that some things may be out of reach for us - at least for the current time. I know that doesn’t sound very supportive or motivational, but understanding and accepting your “limitations” opens up ways for you to work with and around them. And that’s what is needed now.
Necessity is the mother of invention.
It’s time to take stock of yourself and your circumstances so you can open up some doors and windows of possibility. There is inspiration available to you at this time that will help you to find those portals of possibility and throw them wide open! Mindset is important here, of course.
You could define your limitations and let them actually limit you, or you can look at them as merely an obstacle in your path or a challenge to motivate you.
Break out your notebook and favorite pen and get to work!
What about this situation is beyond your control? Are there some actions that may be able to influence the outcome, even if over a long period of time? What about this situation is within your control? Are your expectations in need of updating?
Is there something you know might help but are dreading it? Time to suck it up! Maybe anything you might do will take time, but you don’t have the time. You can do it; you just have to make it a priority. You’d be surprised what one focused hour a week can accomplish.
Don’t get me wrong, that last bit might sound a little privileged, but that’s because I’m finally in a position where I can see how I might have done things a little differently if I knew then what I know now. Pouring all your time, health, and energy into work and/or family can obscure anything that is outside of that, including your own personal growth, and that’s why prioritizing that time is necessary.
Exhaustion alone can keep you complacent for an entire lifetime.
Don’t let your circumstances make you think that what is will always be. You have more power and agency than you think, so open yourself to the possibility of better. A life that feels like living, a new path that you may not have previously believed was possible for you, new solutions to old problems, and resolution where there was once hopelessness - these things are what I wish for you, and I know that you can make them more than a wish 💙
