First Position Current situation

Three of Cups: The three of cups signifies celebrations in all aspects of your life. If it appears to relate to your career, it may be that a number of work-related events are on the horizon. These parties will be joyous occasions. These can take many forms. You may be celebrating a graduation, a change in position or a promotion. If you are launching a business and planning a release, these events are likely to go particularly well. Outside of these engagements, your office environment can be very positive right now. You might find that group work and collaboration is easier now that it has been in the past. It is a good time to enjoy these celebrations and supportive relationships.

I believe the three of cups in this position is in reference to my musics recent success. Feeling really good and relaxed.

Challenge

King of Pentacles: It signifies that your work life is thriving and you're close to achieving your goals or reaching a high status in your chosen profession. If you're still trying to figure out what career might be right for you, the King of Pentacles suggests you might have a talent for business, banking, or finance.

When we meet the King of Pentacles, we feel immediately his regal and generous presence. He is a provider and a protector, for under his care is a flourishing and abundant kingdom where its citizens are prosperous and encouraged to grow. He is naturally responsible and reliable, and through the wisdom granted to him by his suit, he has grown all that he has acquired from practically nothing. To see him in the cards is to envision success - one that was won by earnest work.

This seems like a goal. To trust that these investments will be fruitful.

15 – The Devil: The Devil reversed is one of those rare tarot cards where a possible meaning is actually really nice! If the upright version represents being bound or trapped, the reversed version is freedom, the shackles being opened and removed. You’ve broken through whatever bonds were holding you back (or, if the card is in a future position, you’ll have the opportunity to break free). The tarot is often described as a journey, with each segment illustrated by a card, so this is apt — it’s the point in the story where you get to suddenly zoom forward.
