Overall Collective Energy

There’s quite a bit going on here, and the energy of these cards strangely moves across them, progressing into one card after the other while still maintaining individual projections that settle more on one over the other.

At the head of this set, there is Change, which was present in the Group Energy Analysis for the collective external influence for the whole group. Things are changing, evolving, rebuilding, reconstructing. This progresses into a lower state, a more physical state with Chop Wood where the physical surroundings, demands, and expectations for them change into something closer to chores or hard labor — enlistment.

Them being in this state physically and consciously, together but apart from most of the group and the public opens the doors to The Fates where things are being woven together for something new. For both of them together, but also separately as individuals. They seem to be balancing something here with each other, or the balance that they have naturally with each other is helping The Fates, or their Guides, assist in some level of soul progression or a literal weaving of a new path or level of development for them that will be more clear later on.

The Fates, or their efforts, reverberate downward into a more physical and energetic state of Exaltation (Moon in Taurus), which feels very connected to Jungkook’s Nine of Pentacles and Jimin’s Companionship cards in the GEA. The physical abundance, reward, and success of Exaltation reflect the Nine of Pentacles. At the same time, the dual or mirrored image, the balance of two cornucopias tied together with ribbons, reflects Companionship. Honestly, it almost feels like the stardust that falls from what The Fates are weaving is what makes up Exhaultation. It’s not something they can physically enjoy or really take in, it’s energy or emotion that they’re swimming in because of what they are experiencing with the success of their work in the world and their personal connection while enlisted.

This energy, or this quite warm and friendly energy within Exhaultation encourages the production or the simulation of the Fourth House. As in, they are creating a sense of home or personal foundation together, within each other, and as The Fates and Exhaultation sit at the center of the spread, I feel like this was intended. As in, their Guides want them to create a kind of “home” together to keep each other grounded.

In Jimin’s GEA set, that was a pretty big point, however, Jungkook didn’t seem to be in need of grounding or assistance with foundation, but I would assume that means he’s supplying it. Very similar to the energy between Cancer and Capricorn (4th and 10th House), Cancer brings about the nurturing or softer insides of the home (Companionship) and Capricorn brings about the more structured, hardened, and therefore secure and protective walls that encapsulate the home (Nine of Pentacles).

Side note — just wrote all that and remembered that Jungkook’s other card in the GEA was Charity which is Saturn in Cancer. This also combines those energy of the 4th and 10th Houses, or Cancer and Capricorn as Saturn in the ruler of Capricorn. So, yeah, that just pushes the whole creating a home for each other in a not-so-homey place, but it is just a bit more for Jimin’s sake at this time. Jimin curates the softness and Jungkook curates the protection for that softness, and I really can’t help but make another note of how they really do seem to have switched places in terms of who looks out for and protects who the most. I imagine when they’re back out in the world again, and they’re both in more comfortable spaces again, they’ll be even closer because of the fact that they’ve both occupied both sides of their dynamic. It creates a really strong bond based on trust and vulnerability.

Lastly, the Nine of Wands at the end there, feels like something sitting at the threshold of the 4th House, like something literally standing in the doorway of your home. The Nine of Wands is about paranoia and anticipating something bad happening, which really seems to reflect what I was getting with Jimin in the GEA. Even more so, this card is interesting with its depiction as it is described as the outer wands skeptically or fearfully watching the wand that is on the screen. They’re expecting the image to do something, and just like I was seeing for Jimin, it’s like he’s anticipating something based on what he’s seen or heard around him, but it’s not something (or someone) who can actually get to him physically. No one would allow it, but there’s just such a shadow to it, it’s like he really can’t shake the fear or anxiety that some people around him are causing with their words or actions towards other people.

Jimin’s Projection: Two of Wands

Jungkook’s Projection: The Magician

Within the current state of their connections, these cards represent what Jimin and Jungkook are individually projecting into their relationship with each other. This is purely energetic and doesn’t necessarily reflect emotional connection or conscious-level projection.

Here, Jimin has the Two of Wands and Jungkook has the Magician. Both of them feel similar in terms of planning something with a clear vision in mind, just on different levels. The Two of Wands plans to move around quite a bit while The Magician plans to bring something to fruition, bring something to life, or manifest something. The difference between the two in terms of how these energies are implemented, at least as they are coming through here, the Two of Wands is a slow burn project, while The Magician snaps his fingers and it simply appears.

The Magician also focuses on personal transformation that is very deliberate, changing from the inside-out. The Two of Wands feels a bit more focused on a change of environment, a plan to change things from the outside-in. I feel this is coming through as Jungkook being very focused on what he is going to do once he is finished with his enlistment, possibly working on stuff already, while Jimin is mostly focused on just getting the heck out of there. It’s almost like, with the world globe sitting on the ground behind the rabbit, rather than in front where it can be focused on, he can’t even begin to think about the future too much while he is feeling quite uncomfortable or nervous about his current location or position.

Jimin's projection, as well as the image of the rabbit in the Two of Wands, brought to mind the Rabbit card from The Wild Unknown: Animal Spirit deck. For reference here is the full description of this card:

Now, imagine Jimin did have The Magician as his projection, a perfect mirror to Jungkook’s energy, but then this Rabbit hopped into Jimin’s line of sight and brought him into the space of the Two of Wands instead. That’s how it feels. Jimin has all of the energy and potential that Jungkook does, especially right now, but there’s so much discomfort and anxiety where he is right now that he can’t think that far ahead or worry about anything else, and if he does, it just seems to add to the stress.

How Jimin Sees Jungkook: Four of Pentacles

How Jungkook Sees Jimin: Two of Pentacles

This set shows, based on their projections and the overall dynamic of the relationship, how they both see each other now. Here, Jimin sees Jungkook as the Four of Pentacles while Jungkook sees Jimin as the Two of Pentacles. I thought this was so interesting because it follows that same kind of mirroring, but brought down a level with the Two of Wands and the Rabbit. It’s like they’re both supposed to be Four of Pentacles, stable and secure, but Jungkook is seeing that there’s some kind of imbalance happening with Jimin, something he’s not hearing about, but something he’s seeing. While he stands as The Magician, secure in the Four of Pentacles here, he sees Jimin balancing on one foot, or struggling to hold what he has.

Rather than the actual meanings of the cards, I’m so much more focused on the numbers and the element of Earth in relation to the Pentacles. They both see each other as foundation or stability, they see each other as security, but there is a noticeable separation that I feel like they’re both trying to ignore especially because I don’t think it’s ever been like this before where there was this much turmoil in one while the other was practically floating by. It seems like such a difficult thing to grasp because it’s like Jungkook can SEE this, but there’s not much he can do about what’s going on INSIDE of Jimin, all he can do, until Jimin talks more directly, is protect his outsides and simply let his presence be that extra footing or balance that he needs until he, as we saw in his Charity card, can pick Jimin up and just run out of there when they’re finished with their enlistment.

Current State of The Relationship: The Devil (rev.) + Four of Swords (rev.)

I think I’ve seen this before in one of their readings where the current state of the relationship was completely dictated by Jimin and here it is the same, but unfortunately it doesn’t really showcase their relationship as much as it showcases Jimin’s relationship with their relationship if that makes sense. I really wish I could access the full versions of previous readings because I swear there was something before in one of the readings about Jimin kind of putting a wall up between himself and Jungkook because he thought it was safer or better for Jungkook if he did that. It had something to do with emotional disconnect and fear of judgment or backlash from the public.

This is a little bit similar to that, but it seems like a further projection of Jimin’s perhaps anxious or unnerved state. He’s seeing their relationship as The Devil, as something that is toxic or a burden on Jungkook, but it’s almost like Jungkook is the one who came around and flipped this card on its head saying, “yeah, no, that’s ridiculous.” And then Jungkook would throw out the Four of Swords and say, “this is us, we’re resting, we just need to relax, it’s okay, I’ll watch you while you sleep so you can feel safe.” And then Jimin flips that card on its head and says, “yeah, no, that’s ridiculous.”

They’re so in sync with each other but so not at the same time, it’s very confusing, but I think that’s what is shown with Change and even The Fates where something is in an odd state of transition, including their relationship.

The images of the cards have an odd mirror between them as well with the two people in The Devil tied together back-to-back, as if they’re trying to get away from each other but can’t. With their heads down and arms covering their faces, it’s like they’ve passed out or given up trying to escape. But then, on the Four of Swords, there’s a lion sleeping peacefully, head down on its paws. They’re the same image basically, but seen in very, very different lights, and both sides disagree with the other.

It sounds odd, but it keeps hitting my mind as if it’s literally about sleep. Like Jimin can’t sleep well so Jungkook would watch him or be close by to let him sleep more comfortably, but Jimin sees that situation as The Devil, as two people tied together, as if Jungkook doesn’t have a choice or is sacrificing something for him. But then from Jungkook’s perspective, he’s literally just… watching him sleep, as if Jimin is the lion in the image.

Jimin sees this situation as very sharp and toxic for Jungkook, but Jungkook sees the situation as soft and necessary for both their comfort, but mainly for Jimin's well-being.

Highest Potential/Next Step: Ten of Cups (rev.) + Eight of Cups (rev.)

These two are so dramatic, I swear. If this is following the same pattern as the previous set, then these reflect their own split perceptions or expectations for the highest potential or next step of their relationship. For reference, here are some excerpts from the descriptions of these cards so you can know why I’m calling them dramatic:

Now imagine Jimin saying all of that to try and convince Jungkook that their relationship is The Devil, or he himself is The Devil.

The way I’m seeing this is so ridiculous because it looks like they’re not allowing things to move, they’re waiting for the other to "move on" — as in, Jimin’s waiting for Jungkook to literally drop him like the Eight of Cups drops emotional baggage before moving along on his solo journey, and Jungkook is waiting for Jimin to move on from this emotional disconnect and stop looking at them like that, like The Devil.

Basically, Jungkook is waiting for or anticipating the Ten of Cups (upright) as the next step of their relationship, but Jimin flipped that and said “no, remember The Devil,” and Jimin presents the Eight of Cups to Jungkook like, ‘this is what YOU are supposed to do, leave me here, and go!” and Jungkook’s like lol funny, and just picks Jimin up, shoves him in his backpack, and carries him across the river anyway. Someone tell me why they're like this and what the hell happened in the last like four years that brought them to this because… what kind of cosmic angst-ridden drama are these two souls stirring up in the higher dimensions for these two to be projecting energetic arguments like this??

Just so we don’t have to leave off with their energetic quarrel, I pulled extra cards with focus on The Fates, or more specifically, their Guides and what exactly they’re trying to do with them together, or what they are meant to move into together once they’re in a better position and both more comfortable. With that, they got the Seven of Pentacles and The World card. I’ll include pieces of their descriptions as well:

It feels like the Seven of Pentacles is more for Jungkook while The World is for Jimin, both of which would be alongside each other. It’s kind of interesting to think of it in that light with The World being mentioned in the Seven of Pentacles description, while The Magician, Jungkook’s current projection, showing up in The World’s description. It’s almost like the message for them would be to wait for Jimin to get to that high point. He’s supposed to be even higher than The Magician, in terms of development, but eye-to-eye in terms of how they cycle each other.

While The Fool is the first card in the major arcana, it’s number 0, marking it as a card of potential, while The Magician is number 1, which is that snap! I mentioned where he could just “make something appear.” The World card marks the completion of The Fool’s journey through the major arcana, and holds the higher vibrations or energy of the four elements, while The Magician holds the physical representation of them.

Essentially, it’s like, Jungkook’s support now is connected to the idea of The Magician having the physical elements on his side, represented by the suits of the tarot - Cups/Water, Wands/Fire, Swords/Air, and Pentacles/Earth - while Jimin has the energy of those elements on his. If they combine, they genuinely form magic, like cosmic magic, but right now, Jimin is not at his absolute peak yet. On some level, to some degree, he’s pushing Jungkook away, but another part of him, probably his Higher Self which may line up more with The World, is holding on for dear life because where is all the energy supposed to go without him?

It's kind of making me feel how his soul did when it came to the Soul Body separation. As Jimin was the Heart of the body, representing the Heart Chakra, when all the others started to separate, there's this sense of loss of purpose. What is a heart to do when there is no body to pump blood or energy through, when there are no other souls to anchor in?

This is kind of reminding me of the lovely reflection and duality of Adam and Eve, specifically in the context of the Divine Masculine and the Divine Feminine. Adam is the Atom, the “cell” of matter, while Eve, or Evvvvvee, is the vibration that brings those atoms to life and starts to form everything in existence. If we visualize this we see Adam as the egg, and Eve as the sperm, but obviously, physically, the female holds the egg while the male holds the sperm. It’s always just been an interesting macrocosm vs microcosm type of thing that I like to think about sometimes, and this aspect between them as The Magician and The World, as energy within one matching “physical” conduits in the other is really interesting. They’re showing to be very strong counterparts, very necessary for each other's progression.
