| well cuz im not a half stepper obviously |
we just never run out of two weeks, do we? this one's for the stars! rock, super, et al. as we ease into this, i'm going to do things a little less rigidly. I'll still call out the positions and their meanings, but really, each card is in conversation with each other. It's a little funny to give your friends assigned seating.
where you stand, the filter. if i have not named you, go no further (right): this one I'll keep. Else how I know who to scold if they barge in anyway? The Star is the future, dreamy and twinkling. She's faith, hope, a promising beginning and a lofty vision. Potential, rather than the actual, is catching your eye. It's hard to look away from something that could be anything. It doesn't have to be airy fairy though. the Star just deals with being conscious of the long arc ahead of you, and trusting that it will provide for you.
Here, seeing the Power, the Four of Disks up top in the "importance" position, we're talking practically. Plans, more than dreams. Power deals with security, banking on what you have gained and taking steps not to lose it. Minecraft brain: everything is a component. Anything you want needs to be built from what you have. If you don't have what you need than build the tool to get it with what you have. Life is easy. It's cubes. Relating this to the future-gazing Star, I'd say this encourages building enduring structures so that the good things you have can appreciate in value. With Disks, this could very well be literal: make a bunch of jam. Organize your books and sell the ones you don't need so you can buy a shelf for the ones you do. That kind of stuff.
It's not the time to be reckless with what is precious to you. the future is a place of strange winds, and what survives here and how is not guaranteed to survive then. Princess of Swords, placed left in our "unimportant/warning" position speaks to that. She's all about testing things through conflict, seeing what survives an initial clash and what doesn't, then darting off to another test without sweeping up the glass. What you have is good; trust (again, the Star: faith, trust, hope) this. Value it, keep it safe. This primacy of material values and precious things is reinforced by the Prince of Disks, down below in the "what is all this good for anyway" spot. He's about the responsibility that comes with possessions and attachments, including the responsibility of action. The grain is no good if it rots in the storehouse. Use it, but use it where you know it will be appreciated. You're not going out on a limb here; that's Princess stuff. What you have is yours to give to the ones who need it.
Coming at the end of the Disks suit and thus concluding the minor arcana, the Knight is looking loopward back at Wands, the starting suit, the Action Boys. Don't leave things on the shelf: make sure that you're handling everything safely, that you know where everything belongs, but arrange things in such a way that inclines you to use them. Don't rest secure that your friends don't hate you (shh, they don't), make plans, because otherwise why have friends? Keep an eye on what you have that gets better with time; the future plus Disks is always, more or less, is about the value that things accumulate when they are given the security to exist in and of themselves.
the quintessence here is 21/3 the Universe/Empress. So basically, see above. Come into your own. Indulge in the good things you have so long as they nourish you. Give benevolently and watch how everything grows towards you.
