Can tarot cards help determine which company is better suited for me?

Hi, that's a great question. Many people consider using Tarot cards when facing important decisions. My experience is: Yes, you can, but it might not be in the way you imagine.

Tarot cards aren't a magic crystal ball that will directly tell you "go to Company A" or "Company B is better." They're more like a mirror, or a very insightful friend. They can help reflect your deepest thoughts, concerns, and desires, allowing you to see them more clearly.

For example, you might rationally feel Company A offers a higher salary and better reputation, but deep down, you have a nagging unease. Company B, while seemingly ordinary, might have given you a great vibe during the interview. When you're torn, Tarot can help concretize these feelings of "unease" and "good vibe."

So, how do you do it? We typically use a "Two-Choice" spread.

You can do this:

1. Calm your mind, and first think, "If I choose to go to Company A, what will my state be like?" Then draw a few cards (e.g., three cards).
2. Next, think, "If I choose to go to Company B, what will my state be like?" And draw a few cards for that.

Then you can compare these two sets of cards. The key isn't to see which set is "better" (e.g., all Suns and Stars are good, all Swords and Towers are bad), but rather to feel the message the cards are giving you:

• The cards for Company A might show many Wands, which could mean a fast-paced, dynamic, and competitive environment, offering a strong sense of achievement but potentially also being very demanding.
• The cards for Company B might show many Cups, suggesting harmonious relationships, a comfortable and emotionally supportive work environment, but perhaps a slower pace of career progression.
• If Swords appear, don't immediately think "bad, high pressure." It could represent a challenging role that requires intellectual effort and offers rapid growth.
• If Pentacles appear, it might signify stability, practicality, and good material rewards.

When interpreting, you need to combine your understanding of these two companies to "translate" the cards' meanings. For instance, if you draw the "Three of Swords" for Company A, you might think, "This perfectly aligns with the rumors I heard about intense internal conflicts." If you draw the "Ten of Cups" for Company B, you might think, "This confirms the 'family-like warm atmosphere' I felt during the interview."

The most important point: Tarot cards provide you with information and perspectives, but you are always the one who makes the decision.

You can treat it as a very important reference. Combine the "inner weather forecast" from Tarot with the information you've gathered (salary, commute, career development, company culture, etc.) to make a comprehensive judgment.

Often, you'll find that the cards simply amplify that subtle voice within you, allowing you to finally hear it clearly and have the courage to trust your intuition.

So, feel free to use it to help clarify your thoughts! It's an excellent tool for engaging in a dialogue with your inner self. I wish you find the path that's best for you!

Of course, using Tarot cards to analyze offers can be quite helpful when you're struggling to make a choice. However, you need to understand one thing first: Tarot cards won't directly tell you "go to Company A" or "Company B is better." It's more like a guide, helping you lay out the pros and cons of both sides, your true inner thoughts, and potential developments, allowing you to see things more clearly for yourself.

Let me share my personal experience; you can give it a try:

1. Preparation: Find a quiet, undisturbed time and place. Go over the details of both job offers in your mind (e.g., position, salary, commute time, company culture, etc.). Then take a deep breath and calm yourself. The key is that your question shouldn't be "Which one should I choose?" but rather "What will Company A bring me?" and "What will Company B bring me?"

2. Card Spread (How to lay out the cards): You don't need a complex spread; the simplest "two-choice" spread will do.

• Shuffle the cards, then silently ask, "Please tell me what the situation will be like if I choose Company A?" Then draw one card and place it on the left. This card represents the overall energy and development that Company A can bring you.
• Shuffle again, then silently ask, "Please tell me what the situation will be like if I choose Company B?" Draw another card and place it on the right. This card represents Company B.
• Finally, shuffle one more time, silently asking, "What else do I need to know about this choice? Or what advice do you have for me?" Draw one more card and place it in the center above the other two. This is your "advice card."

Now you will have three cards on the table.

3. Interpreting the Cards (How to read them): Now let's see what the cards are telling you. Don't be scared by "good cards" or "bad cards."

• Look at the cards representing Company A and Company B:

  • For example, if Company A shows a "Ten of Pentacles," this might mean stability, abundant material rewards, and security. But if you're someone who seeks challenges and novelty, this might also suggest a bit of dullness.
  • If Company B shows a "Knight of Wands," this might represent vitality, drive, and many learning opportunities, but it could also mean instability, high pressure, and frequent changes.
  • You see, whether a card is "good" or "bad" is relative. The key is the characteristics it reveals and whether those are what you truly desire.

• Compare the two cards:

  • Compare the "scenarios" represented by the two cards. Which scenario appeals more to you? Which scenario's challenges are you more willing to accept? Tarot cards will project your subconscious, and sometimes, as soon as you see the cards, you'll immediately have an answer in your heart.

• Look at the advice card:

  • This card is the highlight. For instance, if the advice card is "The Hermit," it might be reminding you to calm down, look inward, and not be overly influenced by external voices (like advice from family and friends, or societal expectations). Listen to your inner voice. If the advice card is "Three of Swords," it might be reminding you that this decision could bring some discomfort, requiring you to let go of something, and to be mentally prepared.

To summarize: Tarot cards don't make decisions for you; they are a tool to help you "clarify your thoughts." They act like a mirror, reflecting your inner perceptions and potential energies regarding these two choices. Ultimately, the decision is yours to make. But through this process, you will gain a clearer understanding of what you truly value and what you fear, and the decision you make will feel more grounded. I wish you good luck!
