Pre-Reading:
This is very weird and it really confused the hell out of me so I’m going to really summarize this and keep this as compact as possible.
There seems to be a casing around the very center of his core energy where the balance of Divine Feminine and Divine Masculine sit as represented by the King and Queen of Wands. The reason that this casing is there is because there is some kind of energetic pulling happening where the King, the masculine energy, is being pushed towards the 10 of Pentacles, so REAL LIFE kind of shit, while the Queen, Divine Feminine, is sort of being reserved for the more subconscious and unconscious aspects with the Ace of Cups.
Now, this is actually pretty normal, most people are set up like this anyway, but there is an energetic conflict between the Queen and King as shown with the 5 of Wands sitting between them. This is that pulling thing I was seeing. It’s like they’re being pulled apart while also being pushed together by their own magnetic attraction, that natural need for balance, so it’s causing this weird ripping to happen.
This energetic conflict caused this weird cycle to occur where the energy of the 5 of Wands is reflected in the emotional state of the 5 of Cups. Specifically, this was around insecurity and for some reason, it kept being shown as him being clumsy. Like there was a lot of focus on the three spilled cups in the image having had been caused by an imbalance between the two cups behind the man, which would be the separated King and Queen. Again, very confusing.
So, quite literally, as this was playing out, it looks like this odd imbalance that he himself didn’t cause, started to make him physically imbalanced which lead to conscious and physical level mishaps, which lead to low self-esteem or a poor view of himself. Then that kind of emotional expression was seen as wrong or as a setback to what he was trying to do, so then he himself started to actively separate the emotional realm (the Ace of Cups) from the external goal or focus (10 of Pentacles). This then only exacerbated the pull of the King and Queen.
Then all the sudden there’s Death there, rolling up with a big sharpie marker to just black everything behind him out and set everything down a very smooth path with The Chariot. Death is an external shift, and because this leads into three major arcana and an Ace through a process of manifestation, I’m pretty sure this whole energy splitting and insecurity things were literally “put on hold” because he had to go get famous real quick because that is exactly what is shown with The Chariot, The Magician, The Sun, and the Ace of Pentacles.
So, that protective casing around that whole center core issue is like plastic wrap keeping it fresh for when he needs to actually deal with it or experience something that will bring him back into alignment and balance.
I really don’t understand what’s happening in his core, it looks and feels confusing, but it’s all so focused and pointed with Death bringing The Chariot and triggering so much direct projection that I can’t even say that the energy splitting is negatively influencing him. It’s literally just in the background.
The Reading:
Current State of Core Energy: Hyena — Fire
The Hyena reflects what I was getting with the energy reading pretty well as the Hyena is an odd character that seems to have a persona that is split down the middle, as represented by the moon in the background. This was really taking me back to the hyenas in the Lion King where they were weirdly unstable like they came off pretty normal and then they would just go berzerk. It’s like that, but not so literal. Jisung isn’t going berzerk, I think, but there is just an odd hidden part to his core that is being contained.
Again, this doesn’t feel negative at all, it’s not something that seems to be blocking him in any way, it actually seems to be something that is helping him. The details of the image in this card really solidify that idea in my head. If you were to think of the Hyena as Jisung and the moon in the background as his core, then they are not actually connected, or there’s no conscious level part of him that is intentionally hiding or repressing anything. Basically, it’s like his core really is being governed by Death or the external energies that implemented that “casing” around certain aspects of his core in order for him to shift into his current path.
Why is it happening like that? I have no idea.
Elemental Water Alignment: Raccoon — Earth (rev.)
This reversed Earth energy here in the Water Alignment, which governs the emotional, intuitive, and creative aspects of the mind, reflects the position of the Queen of Pentacles with the Ace of Cups. With the Raccoon reversed, it’s showing that aspect of it being hidden or turned off in some way.
This can contribute to some issues with emotional or creative expression as this card is referred to as a “starving artist” when reversed, someone that wants to put something out there but can’t. But again, this feels contained. The visual I had in my head for this was of a pet raccoon being thrown into a trashcan and then just kind of being left there. It’s forgotten about quickly so there’s no problem or issue for the owner, it’s just a matter of turmoil and a claustrophobic feeling for the raccoon in the trashcan.
So, I imagine he’s quite emotionally and creatively complex, but the way he actually expresses it may be more level-headed or reflect through the King of Wands with the 10 of Pentacles.
Elemental Fire Alignment: Deer — Earth
Elemental Earth Alignment: Lion — Fire
I wanted to put these two together because they really vibe with the whole split energy thing between the King and Queen, and they are even shown to be balancing between these alignments.
First off, the Fire Alignment is the area where you can see where, how, and towards what your core energy is being directed towards, while the Earth Alignment is where you can see the level of groundedness, connection to the physical space, and self-awareness. Between them, you have aspects of the internal and external world. A lot of what you project can affect your connection to the physical space, and of course, when you are working towards something you are projecting energy through physical activity.
His Fire Alignment, his internal space, is governed by the Deer, which is a feminine Earth energy, which relates back to the Queen of Pentacles with her Ace of Cups. Then his Earth Alignment, his connection to the physical space and self-awareness, is governed by the Lion, masculine Fire energy, which is in the realm of the King of Wands and the 10 of Pentacles. Something like this can be pretty common with younger men where they will suppress their more “feminine” characteristics such as strong emotions or vulnerability, and then will project more of their “masculine” qualities in order to compensate. So, it could be to do with that, but they do balance each other out within the alignment.
Basically, the energy of the Queen and the Ace of Cups are contained, but he still has roots in it that fuels his physical and conscious level action and projection. As I said, this is not negative, but when you are projecting something unconsciously that opposes what you are presenting consciously, it can cause a bit of conflict and confusion. Kind of like the Hyena vibe but not actually bad enough to make someone go crazy, it’s just sort of a back and forth between logical thought and emotion.
Elemental Air Alignment: Peacock — Air (rev.)
With an Air energy in his Air Alignment, the area displaying conscious level thought processes and communication, there is a very strong pull into the conscious mind here, but with the Peacock there is some distortion or confusion which can stem from the previous placements with Earth and Fire, or influence from the King and Queen.
When it’s upright, the Peacock present an illusion to the world, distracting people with its bright colors and decoration, but when it’s reversed, it’s the other way around. The Peacock can get overwhelmed and distracted, get a distorted vision of the world and what is going on around them. This feels a lot like what the 5 of Cups was presenting as it was coming from the conflicting energy between the King and Queen.
It’s interesting because he could have the Peacock all the time and it just switches back and forth between being upright and reversed. Like, when it’s upright, he’s presenting the illusion of the Lion, acting through the King of Wands where his focus is clear and on the 10 of Pentacles. But sometimes that Deer energy or that Queen of Pentacles with the Ace of Cups peaks out and because it’s acting as an energetic influence, projected energy, it distorts how he is seeing the world. Like, he could still feel like the Lion, his Earth Alignment, but is observing the projection of the Deer, his Fire Alignment, which throws him off.
Higher Self Core Alignment: Firefly — Air
This is nice to see.
The Higher Self Core Alignment is where you can see what the Higher Self is currently trying to push down into the core in order to aid in the progression of the current process, or to initiate a new one entirely. This here with the Firefly is showing that there’s this kind of “drip” happening from the Water Alignment. It’s sending in little sparks to reacclimate the Queen in with the King. It’s happening very slowly, only little bits at a time, and that may be what that odd projection and back-and-forth energy with the Peacock is coming from.
This does seem to be going more towards creative expression so this may show up first in his work, and as he gets more comfortable being ~real~ through his work, or through that persona, then he may kind of crack that shell a bit and clear out that conflict or strain in the 5 of Cups and 5 of Wands, and bring everything back into balance.
That’s all I have for this one, thanks for reading!
