Question
Is there a wish I should make during this week's meteor shower?
Answer
Yes — one, and it should be a plain sentence with a date in it, not a sky-sized one.
Three cards came up.
Past — The Sun, upright. Before the shower, a stretch that was already uncomplicated: you could see what you wanted, no fog. Whatever is on your mind now isn't a lack of clarity; you already had clarity and something complicated it later.
Present — Seven of Cups, reversed. The fog is in the options, not in you. Seven of Cups upright is seven glowing possibilities none of them yours; reversed, the options drop away and fewer than one of them was real. This is the card that answers your question directly: if you have been quietly holding several wishes at once and letting none of them settle, the shower is not where that gets fixed. Pick the one you'd still want in ten years if nobody had confirmed it.
Future — Two of Wands, reversed. Planning at a distance, watching the road from far off. Reversed, the horizon stops being interesting — the wish that travels is a small, near-range one: something you can act on from where you actually stand, not a life you would have to leave for.
The tension between them is Fire against Water — warmth against wanting. The Sun's fire and the Two of Wands' fire against the Seven of Cups' water: a feeling that lifts and a wish that dissolves. Which one wins depends on something you can check tonight.
The check: write your candidate wish as a single sentence containing a real date — "by March I have ___". If it survives having a date and a first small step in it, that's your wish. If you can't put either in there and it stays a feeling about wanting, it isn't; that's the Seven of Cups still doing its work.
The action, before the peak night: say your one sentence out loud to another person — a partner, a friend, anyone who will ask you what it means. What comes back in their questions is the test the cards cannot run for you: if they can repeat it back to you accurately, it was real; if they ask you to explain it, it was still fog.
