I didn’t sell while a lot of others sold.

It’s a pattern repeating itself

Your cards are really neat, John- thank you for sharing them! I like hearing the messages they hold :flower_playing_cards: :sparkles:

I know it’s hard not to, but comparing ourselves to others can be a black hole. Especially in something like sales where a huge part of whether a sale goes through or not is in the hands of the buyer and their personal situation- it’s out of the hands of the salesperson, so it’s not fair to measure one against the other.

Keep your head up and be open to new opportunities- may the road ahead be full of happiness and good luck for you! :raised_hands:

@john.knox I agree with @BryWisteria about comparing yourself & your production to others in that type of situation. The ultimate decision is in the hands of the buyer. However, maybe review what you are doing & see if maybe there is another avenue to try instead of staying in the same cycle. Try a new approach for a few days or listen to the situation & offering the best option for it. Sometimes trying to be in sales can have many approaches.

I would review your current work & see if there are any changes you could easily make in wording, listening & responding, to be able to show the value to the customer of their purchase. While they may want your opinion, they also want to buy something that they can see or has some kind of value to them & their situation. If it’s a cycle, the only way to stop it, is to change something even if it’s a small thing at first. Don’t change multiple things all at once. Give each thing a few tries or days to see if any results change at all.

Journal about your progress & the changes & current ways you’re approaching the sale. Then record any changes or result over a couple of days, then try to add 1 more thing in that is a different approach based on what starts working for you & your clients.

Inner Child Oracle

  • (By: Amanda Lynn Hails)
  • I shuffled 3 times, removed the top 3 cards & flipped over the top card:

TODAY IS THE DAY

There is something you have been putting off and now is the time to do it. It may seem overwhelming but beyond the horizon waits something more wonderful than you can know in these present moments. Do not be afraid, no one is ever truly ready at their first steps. It is not perfection that we seek but a life lived fully.

The Light Seer’s Tarot

  • By: Chris Anne
  • I shuffled the deck 3 times, removed the top 3 cards, & drew:

Queen of Wands Upright

You are capable & fierce. It’s time to root into your purpose & boldly step into the limelight of your life. The Queen of Wands radiates creativity & passion wherever she goes, & when she enters a room her exuberant charisma & confidence are palpable. Don’t be afraid to be the center of attention, & for Goddess sake stop acting small in order to make those around you feel comfortable! Make sure fiery bursts of productivity are accompanied by laughter & gratitude… connection, appreciation, & love. It’s okay to hold shadow in all of this light. Don’t push it down so deeply that you can’t feel it again. Accept the parts of you that you don’t’ openly share. The past failures that have held you back? They don’t define you, so transmute that shadow. Sit with it briefly & then light it on fire, because you don’t need it anymore.

Statement: I fill myself with intense light that connects & incites passions

Light Seer: Creativity, passion, determination, confidence, joy, bold expression, helping others as you build your queendom, power.

I felt called to do a general pull for everyone today. I asked for Brigid’s guidance as I drew for my Celtic Tree Oracle and pulled Tinne - Holly. (Just as a note, I read these cards as Ogham instead of with the booklet the cards come with.)

Keyword: Mastery

Though we do not often turn to smiths today, Tinne can be interpreted as a fid of technology, both mundane and magical, and therefore those who work with the bright marrow of the computer or other high technology items are also associated with this fid. Those who are highly skilled at working magic also fall under its purview.

In its most general sense, Tinne deals with issues of creativity, work, and material prosperity. It shows us where our talents lie. The work of the smith has also been in creating weapons, and so this fid is also linked with weaponry, war, and strife, as well as with practitioners of the martial arts. It can indicate the military or law enforcement as well.

– Weaving Word Wisdom by Erynn Rowan Laurie

This fíd asks us to remember what makes us creative. It also asks us to evaluate how we feel in regard to work, prosperity, and the things we create. I’m having a difficult time putting the meaning together in words right now because this fíd is a direct connection to metal and smithcraft, both things that Brigid holds domain over. I feel like maybe this reading isn’t actually for everyone else but for me instead… :sweat_smile:

I’m still learning Ogham & Celtic Trees & such… so reading like that is a no-go for me, but it is something I would like to be able to do one day. I think I will work on my Ogham studies today!

I feel a connection to this reading though as well, it’s kind of what has been milling around my brain since last evening.

The Light Seer’s Tarot

  • By: Chris Anne
  • I shuffled the deck 3 times, removed the top 3 cards, & drew:

Knight of Pentacles :pentacle_tarot: Upright

He’s toiling & tilling his lands and enjoying every minute of it. More practical than the other Knights, he improves things for himself (& for those he loves) with his steadfast & consistent momentum. Devoted to solidifying foundations, he assures you that extra care today will multiply your harvest tomorrow. It’s time to show fierce loyalty, pride, & trustworthiness - & to tend to your home while uncovering your unwavering ambitions for the future! Sometimes this energy is so stable that it feels repetitive, so if you are feeling resistance or if you’d kinda prefer to stay in bed, find the joy in your progress. The journey is the thing. Uncover heart-stirring enthusiasm by allowing yourself to believe in something brighter. This is a card of infinite expansion, and with time & faith, your seeds will take. Follow through on your plans & promises & move any stagnant energy that’s blocking you from your dreams.

Statement: Seed by seed I plant my future with my rock-steady foundations of faith.

Light Seer: diligence & hard work, determination, steadfastness, building material security, safety, being pragmatic, expansion
