Today’s card just might resonate with a lot of folks. I know many who are struggling with boredom during isolation (and though many of us are in places that are opening up, many of us are still being cautious). Ask yourself – or the Universe – what you need to be focusing on to help you through it. Many have worked more with plants and the yard, which is great because it’s also grounding. Art, reading, writing letters – there are so many ways to kick boredom to the curb, but you must first get the energy to snap out of the malaise.
Blessings!
Four of Vessels – Boredom
Meaning: Lethargy or laziness, locking an individual in a cycle of wasted energy, while all around is the source of inspiration waiting there for the taking. The sickness of the soul.
Reading Points: The Universe responds favorably to a decisive, forward momentum, while boredom leaves a person in a state of inaction. There are many reasons for feeling disenchanted or trapped in life. The causes of the malaise and the feeling of being weathered by routine or beaten down by conflict are common, but in the end it is from ourselves that the first sparks of momentum must emanate.
Emotionally frozen or disconnected people become “black holes” of despair, into which all light and positive energy fall, and fail to return. However, the keys require to allow energy to flow and enlighten the individual again are almost always present, even though they may remain unseen. But if you ask a question of the Universe, the Universe will answer. It has no choice. Nature abhors a vacuum and it will throw so many opportunities into your path that your head will spin. All you have to do is recognize and acknowledge the proffered doorways, and step through them. Challenge should not be feared; opportunity should be grasped and utilized to its natural limit.
Description: A female figure sits at the most of a cave in a typical pose of boredom, staring at nothing. Beside the cave entrance are two vessels, from which spout a vine-like plant. which curls up over the rock to form a tangled arch. Caught in the thicket are two more vessels from which streams of water issue.

i certainly can resonate with this card….feeling fatigued and weary.
I can certainly understand that. I was feeling that way for quite a while, but we were blessed with some beautiful days that got me outdoors and gardening a bit. Hope you feel better soon!
