Whiskey

patience, long-term success, the bigger picture

Life should be sipped slowly with intention. Be patient as the vision reveals itself.

Your higher self chose this card because some things, and often the best things, take time. Some of the most excellent whiskeys in the world age for more than a decade, giving them the time they need to develop flavor and richness. Even lower-end whiskey can take several years to mature properly. Those who take on this endeavor are doing so with the knowledge that they will not be an overnight success, but they take the journey anyway because the rewards have the greatest potential for outweighing the risks. No dream worth having is without its risks.

The Whiskey card is confirmation that your desires are coming but just not right now, so don’t give up hope. Facing an obstacle or a delay isn’t always a sign that you should try something else. Sometimes the universe is testing your patience to see if you have the determination to keep at your dream for the long haul, or it could be a sign to pause rather than quit.

Consider whether your goals need time, like whiskey, to rest undisturbed. You can always come back to your dreams at a later date when you feel more prepared or eager to take on this challenge.

In the case of a love reading, this card can mean a temporary break-up or setback in your relationship that will resolve itself at a later date. In most cases, the card guides you to have patience and advises you to wait at least one full moon cycle before inquiring about your situation again.
