The thought of having a "Coven Deux" excites me (three of pentacles). As always, my biggest fear is being open and sharing my passions and beliefs with my partner (lovers reversed). The only way to be true to myself is to share this with him and have the difficult conversations. It my leave us in a state of imbalance, but it will also lead us to new emotional beginnings (ace of cups). I must be open in order to be fully accepted and loved. So long as I follow through with my intentions, I should receive love and partnership in return. For everyone in my life, I owe them perseverance (nine of wands). My children deserve to see a parent willing to do the hard work for them, my partner deserves to have someone who is not afraid to be themselves.
