🌛📅 Hitomi's Draw: Seven Tarot Cards for This Week. Perhaps There Was a Question for You.

\ Easy-peasy┃I'm Hitomi, your guide to Hitomi's Bookshelf and a high school fortune teller. /

Hello.

Today is my article.

This week is a little special.
From Monday to Sunday, I drew one card each day.

There are 22 Major Arcana cards in Tarot, and the first seven, from 0 to 6, form a story of a "journey of beginnings." Stepping out, moving, pausing, nurturing, deciding, learning, and choosing... Wait, doesn't this look exactly like the flow of a week?

So this week, I've lined up those seven cards from Monday to Sunday.

You can read just the part for your day of the week, or you can read through the whole thing. Feel free to flip through from wherever you like.

🃏 Monday — 0 The Fool

Right, today's card... Wow, it's "The Fool" right off the bat.

This card shows a child standing on the edge of a cliff, not afraid at all. They only have one bundle tied to a stick, and a white flower in their hand. This child isn't fully prepared.

But you know, that's okay. On a Monday, if you try to wait until everything is ready before you move, you'll never move at all.

Take a step anyway, even if you're not ready. Even the dog is laughing and following along.

When I started Tarot, I didn't even remember half the meanings of the cards. I just grabbed the poster my big brother made for me and started on pure momentum.

Hey, that step you're holding back on today because you think you're "not ready yet"—is it really that you lack preparation? Or are you just a little scared?

🔮 Tuesday — I The Magician

Today's card is... "The Magician." Oh, that's a fitting one for a Tuesday.

Look at this person. One hand points to the sky, the other to the ground. On the table, they have a wand, a cup, a sword, and a coin—everything is there.

In other words, this card means that everything you need is already in your hands. You don't need to buy anything new.

If you took a step on Monday, Tuesday is a day to 'use what you have.' You have more in your drawer than you think.

Even for me, my fortune-telling tools started as just one poster my older brother made for me. I started with what I had.

That thing you think you 'can't do because you don't have it'—is it really not there? Or have you just not laid it out on the desk yet?

🌙 Wednesday — II THE HIGH PRIESTESS

The card for Wednesday is... 'The High Priestess.' Ah, this is a quiet card.

You see the person sitting between the black pillar and the white pillar, right? There is a moon at their feet and a scroll on their lap that no one else is allowed to see.

This card doesn't speak. It just sits there, saying, 'The answer is already within you.'

The middle of the week is a time when there are so many voices around you that your own voice becomes the hardest to hear.

So today, before you ask someone else, I want you to try being silent just once.

The answer you actually already know—before you say it out loud, have you properly listened to it yourself?

🌾 Thursday — III THE EMPRESS

Today is 'The Empress.' Wow, a bountiful card has arrived. It's perfect for Thursday.

A person wearing a crown of stars is sitting comfortably in a garden where wheat has ripened. They aren't struggling to go get something; they are in a state where things are already 'growing.'

This card only comes to those who have sown seeds. It means that the accumulation of stepping forward on Monday, taking action on Tuesday, and listening to your own voice on Wednesday is finally starting to bear fruit.

Thursday can be a bit tiring, but I want you to take a good look at your own field today.

Those who think 'nothing has ripened yet' are the ones most likely to overlook the small sprouts at their feet.

Hey, can you count even one thing you've been secretly nurturing over these past few days?

👑 Friday — IV THE EMPEROR

Friday's card is... 'The Emperor.' Oh, a sharp one has arrived.

Sitting firmly on a stone throne, with a scepter in one hand and an orb in the other. It even has ram's head carvings; it's a card for someone who really 'makes decisions.'

At the end of the week, you know, you want to carry everything over while it's still vague. But this person has a face that says, 'I decide things for myself.'

Instead of waiting for someone else to decide for you, today is a day to draw a line for yourself, just once.

It doesn't have to be anything big. 'I'll do this,' 'I won't do that'—that alone makes you a king.

What is the one thing you are currently stuck on, waiting for someone else's reply? Is it really something you can't decide for yourself?

🕯Saturday — V The Hierophant

Saturday's card is 'The Hierophant.' A somewhat solemn one has arrived.

A person wearing a triple crown stands before two pillars with their hand raised. At their feet are two crossed golden keys. In front of them are two people who have come to learn.

This card is saying, 'You don't have to carry everything by yourself.' It's a day to borrow the wisdom of those who have walked the path before you, a day to learn from someone.

I also intended to be self-taught, but in the end, I've come this far with the help of books and words from many people. My brother helped me quite a lot, too.

Since you have time on Saturday, it's a good day to do those things you've been putting off, like 'asking someone' or 'going to learn something.'

That thing you're clutching onto, thinking 'I have to manage this myself'—doesn't someone else already have the answer to it?

🌹Sunday — VI The Lovers

The final card is... 'The Lovers.' I'm kind of happy to see this card on a Sunday.

An angel spreads its wings, and beneath it are a man and a woman. The woman is looking up at the angel. This isn't just a card about romance, you know.

It's a card of choice, asking, 'What is it that you truly want to cherish?'

Sunday, after running through the whole week, is a day to pause for a moment and confirm where your heart is pointing.

Who to spend time with, what to spend your time on. I want you to listen quietly to the direction your heart says 'this way,' rather than choosing what is 'correct' in your head.

Hey, isn't what you want to cherish next week already decided somewhere in your heart?

See you later!

We've finished turning over all seven cards.

Did you notice? Tarot isn't a tool for 'being right or wrong.' The cards are like a mirror that reflects the answers already within you, just a little bit.

Which of this week's cards stayed in your heart the most? Perhaps there was a question for you on that day.

See you later! I'll come back to draw another seven cards.
