Deck: 1909 Waite Smith (By A.E. Waite & P. Colman Smith)

Card Notes

The situation: It seems as if I have completed my goals and am at a level of harmony. However, I have been feeling the opposite as of late. Although I do find myself proud of the work I have accomplished and of the thoroughness of which I do it. Yet, just as a started to feel this accomplished joy, I began a downward spiral into sadness and emptiness both in work and at home.
