What did IU sacrifice for her success in 2017?


August 20, 2018


I had planned on pulling for physical and mental health separately, but the reversed 5 of Cups came out with a response for both. I was feeling tension while trying to feel out for her, but it’s like… just part of her? Like, she’s physically tense due to mental stress (physical stress too, I’m sure) but she’s used to it, so it’s not affecting her the way that level of pain would other people. For her standards of what she considers to be “fine”, she’s doing well, but you know… 

As for what she gave up in order to be a solo artist… literally everything. She gave up everything in order to do what she is doing now. The 10 of Pentacles is like the accumulation of all things that can be yearned for and attained within one’s lifetime. Obviously, she’ll have space to move at some point, but from her perspective, her life is not her own and she has nothing but her work to look forward to. That’s not actually the case though, don’t worry, this is just how she is looking at it.
