None of my spells seem to work right now
Question
None of my spells seem to work right now. What is blocking them?
Answer
The cards don't say something is blocking your magic from outside — they say the practice itself has gone quiet and tight, and that's the part you can act on.
Past is Three of Cups reversed — the work used to be shared, social, done among other people; lately it's been done alone or after the connection drained out of it. Present is The Star reversed, the clearest card here: this is not doubt about whether the craft is real, it's exhaustion and a faded sense of why you're doing it. Future is Four of Pentacles reversed — if you keep going in this shape, the grip loosens into something more usable: less guarding the results, more of it given away or used plainly.
All three reversed, and one Major among them, so this reads as a structural slump in the practice rather than a run of bad luck.
Here's the fork. Go look at the last three workings you did and check what you actually wrote down afterward — not the intent, the record. If you find you stopped recording outcomes, then The Star reversed is doing what it says: your faith left through the missing column, not through the magic failing. If you find the record is complete and honest and nothing came of it anyway, then Four of Pentacles reversed is the live reading — you're measuring results too tightly to let the work function, and the loosening comes from doing something with no outcome attached.
Inside 48 hours, one step: write up three past workings in the same four fields — date, what you asked for, what you did, and what verifiably happened in the following days. The cards cannot supply that column; only your own record can, and it's the one thing that tells you which branch above is yours.
