Can I work only with the universe in my

Three cards came out — past The Moon upright, present Ten of Cups upright, future Eight of Pentacles reversed. The short answer: yes, that can carry your practice, but not by itself for long.

The Moon in the past says the practice began in fog — you didn't derive it from a method, you found it and it answered. Ten of Cups in the present is the seat that says it works now: the register you're in, the felt sense that this is the real work, lands and stays landed. If the day-to-day shape of the practice is one where that register is what people come for, this is a yes, and the cards back it.

The catch is the future seat: Eight of Pentacles reversed. Not a warning about the work, a warning about the craft. If the only thing in the practice is the universe, the boring half — how long a session runs, what you write down afterward, what you charge, what you refuse when it isn't a match — stops being maintained, and the thing goes from skill to habit. The Moon-to-Ten-of-Cups is water running into water: it warms, but it doesn't hold weight.

So: if you keep the practical scaffolding in writing alongside the intuitive work, this can be the practice. If the practical half stays verbal and informal, expect a season where you notice you've been doing the same thing for years without getting better at it.

One step in the next 48 hours: write down the actual weekly shape of the practice — hours, number of sessions, what you record after each one, what you don't take. Then compare that page against the part of it that makes you feel the Ten of Cups. Where the two don't meet, that's the Eight of Pentacles seat telling you where to build.

(One gap: I read "the universe" as working only from intuition/spirit with no systematic method beside it. If you meant someone or something specific by that word, tell me and I'll read the same question against that.) Want the three cards drawn as a picture, or this reading saved to your journal?
