After experiencing my first fortune-telling session, I feel like I can turn my complexes into strengths

“Have you been monitoring me???”

◇

I experienced fortune-telling (a paid reading) for the first time in my life.
The person who read for me was Ms. Torta, a familiar face at the note Information Center.

She is a fortune teller who primarily works using Four Pillars of Destiny.

What is needed for the reading is date of birth + time of birth.
You can get a reading even if you don't know your birth time, but it is preferred to have it for more accuracy.

I will report on the reading I received for myself and my husband (our relationship).

Meeting Ms. Torta

We met through note.

I joined a membership called Miwa Kanazawa's noteInformation Center in December 2025, and Ms. Torta was one of the members.

I felt a sense of closeness knowing we both live in Hiroshima, and I had been thinking, 'I want her to read for me someday.' I quietly sent her a DM on X after the New Year, and it happened because she said, 'January 31st works!' Since we live in the same city, I decided to have an in-person reading.

I married my husband whom I met on X, so I don't have any resistance to meeting people I met online. (You can read that story here👇)

I started writing on note in September 2025. It's quite recent. This is the first time I've met someone through note.
I had been looking forward to the day we could meet, thinking, 'It's been a while since I met someone I got to know online!'

Encounter! Time for the reading

We met at a cafe and I joined Ms. Torta at the table she had already taken.

I had seen her face, but the impression that she was more stylish than in her photos was strong! Her clothes, the accessories she was wearing, everything was stylish... she even had her nails done!

Since I basically don't show my face in a way that remains online, this was a genuine first meeting.

A cute girl that it's a waste not to show her face... that makes me blush...!

Hehe, I was wearing contacts today, so that's why! Since I'm not wearing glasses, I think I look a little less frumpy. (After giving birth, I've had so many eyelid herpes outbreaks that my glasses-wearing rate has gone up)

I thought I was being monitored

First, I decided to have her tell me various things about my chart, which she created based on the date and time of birth I provided in advance.

“You clash with your superiors to protect your subordinates, don't you? That's why you're the type to be liked by your subordinates.”
…How do you know that...? In my previous job, I was in charge of assigning tasks to temporary staff, and I did clash with my superiors for their sake...

Everything else was so accurate that I wondered, Were you monitoring me!? It was almost scary how accurate the Four Pillars of Destiny was. Statistics are amazing.

A complex from my college days

What really resonated with me personally was the part that said, You're the type who can do anything above average, but it's hard to specialize in one thing was the part.

That is exactly what I have felt as a complex for a long time.

I was in a design course in college, so I had been "searching for myself" since then. Because dialogue with oneself is indispensable when creating works.

I wanted to be a specialist.
I wanted something I was so passionate about that I could say, "This is the one thing I won't compromise on!"

I like drawing, and I like taking photos.
Basically, I like "creating," and I improved to a certain extent. That's why I went to a department where I could learn design, even though it wasn't an art university.

Design itself is a logical task.
When it comes to translating it into visuals and modeling, individual sharp thinking and ideas shine through.

If you are from an art school, you might understand, but in the arts, how sharp can you be? is important. Being sharp is everything.

I, who care a lot about what others think and am a perfectionist, would immediately shrink back when someone amazing appeared.
Still, it would have been nice if I were the type who could run with "I love this so much! This is all I have!", but I was the type who would get discouraged.

It's certain that I "like" it, but maybe my passion is low.
I can do it to a certain extent, but there's nothing I can commit to as "this is it!", and because I tended to go along with others, I didn't have any hopes like "I want to do this!". I struggled a lot with my graduation project, which was a continuous dialogue with myself.

Why can't I be as sharp as other people? I've been worried about that for a long time.
It has been like that until now.

Everything might depend on how you perceive it

But when Torta-san said to me, "You can do anything above average, but you don't have to think of it as a negative, like being a jack-of-all-trades, master of none," I was able to change my way of thinking.

I'll live as an all-rounder and use that as a strength she said.

I like writing, and I want to make a living by writing, so I call myself a writer even if my track record is poor.
But.
I want to center my life on writing, but I don't have to be tied only to writing, do I?
I can use my painting, design, photography, and all my work experience so far effectively.
I might not be sharp, but I can do it to a certain extent. That will surely be a strength too.

There is always someone better, but it's okay to say you like what you like.

When I thought about it that way, I suddenly felt relieved.

(By the way, my husband has a chart that is even sharper than mine—he does what he likes, but if he can't do something, he just can't! I'm a little envious!)

Looking ahead

In my main career, I have always built my experience around support roles, moving from a general position (production & back office) to sales administration (where I am now).
I think I am well-suited for multitasking and supporting others.

I thought it might be a good idea to expand the scope of my work starting from what I can do (= support tasks), so I added "Creative" and "Supporter" to my name. (I'll change it if I find something better.)

Torta-san told me,
"You have a tendency to over-input, so it would be good to be conscious of outputting."
"This year is a very good year for you."
Since I was told that, I want to make this a year where I solidify my foundation by focusing on output.

I've seen it said that if you write things down, they come true, so even though it's scary, I'm going to write down my goals.

For my private life, something like this.

I don't know if they will come true, but writing them down keeps them in my mind.
I want to make an effort so that I can make as many of them come true as possible.
