Aufrecht

No, probably not literally. Death is the tarot's cleanest card: something is over, and the over-ness is the mercy. The branch pruned is the one that blooms. Stop resuscitating what has already finished — the job, the version of the plan, the argument — and let the space it leaves do its work.

Umgekehrt

Reversed, you are gripping the ending shut: half-finished goodbyes, a door held open by one toe, fear of who you are on the other side. The transformation is patient but not infinite. Pick one thing this week to actually let finish.
