I've had this spread on my 'to do' list for a while now. It's supposed to help you think about different ways to use your strengths in whatever situation you're asking about. I pulled the cards last night, but did not turn them over until this morning. I apologize for the terrible picture quality, my phone wasn't doing what I wanted it to do.
The spread is by Evvie Marin from Interrobang Tarot. The visual (and all their work, to be honest) is very pleasing for me to look at. They have some really great spreads, as well. I love their website in relation to tarot! They also are a multimedia artist.

INTROSPECTION
The universe is showing me a few tasks that I need to focus on as I continue my journey in life. My mental health has been very poor, especially with the winter season. The card reminds me of all the things that seemed to go wrong, no matter how many times I know I did the right thing, made the right choices, etc. Maybe this is telling me fix my view of these situations.
The five of pentacles hits me hard emotionally, as someone who grew up in poverty and abuse. It seems like a cycle in my family, which is a topic my mother and I talk about a lot. It's time to break the cycle, to move away from the curse-like issues that my family deal with.
Measuring the progress of our future plans, of our move to another state seems so simple, but someone like has a hard time handling change. This is a big change, and I need to make sure I take things step by step so we can set up the life we want, the life we deserve, the life we are working hard to make.
The middle shelf is all about reminding me of my strengths. When I make a choice, I stick to it. I can use that talent to support myself and others when I make decisions that will make life better for me and others. I need to remember to use the community as a resource, which could relate to work, relationships, health, or even reading the cards. It's okay to ask for help. As for the High Priestess, I'm not sure what kind of skill this is meaning. This is where I can call on the community to help, I suppose!
I'm only now starting to understand the good that comes from meditation, from letting myself heal, and I need to give myself permission to do these things. The Queen of Pentacles might be someone who helps me do that, although I don't know who they are right now. Working toward my goals will help unlock whatever it is.
Positive vibes to you all!
