#22 - Crossroad

Crossroad Lenormand: The Card in Five Words

  • Hesitation
  • Procrastination
  • Travel
  • Choices
  • Uncertainty

The good thing about not having too much choice is that it never takes too long to make a decision. The more choices a person can have, the more possible outcomes there could be, which is what Crossroad as a card stands for. It sees you standing at a fork in the road and staring down each of the several paths available to you. Along each one is both moments of joy as well as obstacles, but which one will you pick?

The Crossroad card weighs heavily on your shoulders, almost burdening you with what you are being offered. You know you need to make progress and move forward, but you don’t know how to do so because you just cannot pick the right path. The trouble begins with assuming that you must have the answers right now.

Crossroads offer you the reminder that free will lies on your side, and that you have the power to know where to go. Although it might appear difficult, you cannot keep stagnating in the same spot, igniting this inner war you’re determined to burn yourself out from.

Dog Lenormand: The Card in Five Words

  • Support
  • Loyalty
  • Friendship
  • Love
  • Followers

The wondrous dog - faithful to its owner to the very end and synonymous with the Lenormand Dog card meaning. Receiving it in a reading only offers positivity and love coming your way in the form of support and dedication. It could be as if you are seeking someone to be by your side through a challenge you are up against, and the outcome looks to be in your favor.

The Dog card could offer you the company and time of another person with the supporting traits of a dog. Someone who refuses to leave your side and wants to see you breathing life into your days once more. It could also see you fulfilling that role, looking to make someone the very focus of your attention, applying your loyalty to them as and when they need it.

The only slight downside to Dog is that as with the very animals by nature, they are incredibly easy to please. This may see you neglecting yourself as you continue to put someone, or more than one person, before your own needs. Your voice, health and wellbeing still matter, so try to see that as a priority you must uphold.

Crossroad + Dog

Crossroad and Dog together may see you tinkering on the edge of your limit. Perhaps you have been faithful for long enough, and you are not receiving it back. When these two cards collide, they strongly indicate a time when you need to decide, and you know it must be somehow in your favor, but to release it, you must release the lead others have on you.

Holding you back and asking you to be there for them means you cannot be there for yourself. What you are facing now is one path made for you, and the other made for them. Neither path has to be permanent, but it does have to be one that helps you out of this tiresome situation, so choose wisely.

2+2+1+8=14
1+4=5

The Number 5

Number 5 in numerology has two different meanings to it, with the first being that of justice and knowledge. This suits those who are struggling to come to terms with being treated unfairly, and finally seeing a way out of the tangled web of darkness that has encircled them recently. It is as if there is an injection of purity coming your way that you are gladly grabbing hold of.

The second meaning is that of a fun-loving and charismatic nature that is deep within you, screaming to get out. People love to be around you because you make them feel good, but to your own detriment. Number 5 reminds you to give yourself a little of that zest from time to time too.

Today's Action Steps:

Today sees you being given the opportunity to be loyal to yourself. It is a chance to say, ‘not today’ to somebody, and focus on yourself. This is a great time for remembering how much you are worth it, and also stands to be a good test for those who usually depend on you. If they support you, then that’s great. If they don’t, perhaps they will understand in time. Whatever the outcome, today is about you.
