Summary:

My interpretation of this spread is that I have been reacting negatively and have be letting that ruin my relationship with people but specifically my mom. I react and say things without thinking and tend to have a lack of empathy sometimes. I view her emotional needs in a negative way and it's something that i need to unpack. The chariot is showing that I have to balance this aspect of my life and that I have to think with both logic but also with emotion and emotional empathy because people are emotional beings. I need to be calmer and more even-headed and not fall back into my manipulative tendencies. I need to be on top of myself and not let myself be swept away with my own feelings. I also need to stop being so hateful towards myself because it's making me be hateful to the people around me. I'm not in a bad situation and I need to learn to be grateful for what's been given to me.
