What is the spiritual purpose of my conn
Question
What is the spiritual purpose of my connection with this person?
Answer
The purpose here reads as apprenticeship, not destiny — a skill or a piece of concrete knowing this person is actually there to hand you, and the cards are unromantic about it.
Past — Knight of Swords reversed. How you first met and met again: fast talk, sharp framing, winning the point. Reversed, it didn't land; the cutting didn't teach you anything, and that pace is what wore the channel out.
Present — Page of Pentacles upright. What the connection is for *now*: a student at a real bench. Something small, countable, learnable — the beginning of a thing you'd still be doing in a year. This is the seat that answers your question, and it answers it downward, into the material.
Future — Knight of Wands reversed. Where it goes if nothing changes: the spark keeps outrunning the substance. Enthusiasm arrives faster than skill, the work stays thin, and the connection ends as a story you tell about a person rather than a thing you can do.
All three cards are court cards and all minor — that says the lesson here lives in posture and role, not in a life chapter. Two of the three are reversed, so the energy is mostly turned inward.
So: if the thing this person can actually give you turns out to be a specific skill, a standard, a piece of craft you can name and practise, then the purpose is real and the Page seat is doing its work. If what you find is atmosphere, attention, and heat without anything you can list, then the reversed Knight of Wands is already running and the connection is burning for its own sake.
Within 48 hours, ask them one plain, practical question about a real thing you need to know — something with an answer you could use — and write down what comes back, including how long it took and how specific it was. Their answer is a thing you can look at; the cards can't supply it.
