Key Phrase

Why make things so much more difficult than they need to be?

Description

Can you believe this witch didn't think she'd need a box to transport all these candles from her car to the Samhain celebration? To most, it probably seems like it's way too much for one person to carry, but don't worry, she knows she can manage it; after all, this is nothing compared to her weekly grocery trips. However, there's no denying that it didn't have to be done this way. In a reading, this may indicate that you're nearing the end of a long, tireless endeavor—hooray! However, make sure that you're not making any unnecessary work for yourself. You aren't going to get extra credit points here, so just do whatever is necessary to get it done & then move on!

Reversed Meaning

I know we all live in a capitalist society, but being burned out & exhausted like you are now is not the badge of honor you think it is. If you're not getting compensated for extra work, then don't do it. Know when enough is enough.
