Four of Cups Reversed

I have two big projects due for school in two weeks. These are 3,000 to 5,000 word papers - research-based and literary. They're wildly different from each other and I need to get started. 

I know I need to get started.

I have a variety of mental illnesses that inhibit my ability to function as an adult. I don't know where they came from. Genetics, most likely. Maybe that time I skied into a tree and was knocked out for a moment. Maybe something horrific from my childhood that I've blocked out. Who knows. I'm working with a therapist and I'm on a variety of supplements that haven't started working yet. I'm on it, it's just taking a while. 

This is the reversed four of cups energy. You're raring to go, you're just unable to get started or you don't know where to begin. Your own psychoses might be holding you back. You may be worried about the outcome. You're probably feeling dopey, wandering around like you just woke up and need more coffee.  

It's time to get going. It's the reversed four of cups.

Upright, the Four of Cups is boredom, fatigue and apathy.

Reversed, one is ready to seize opportunities but may be unsure of where to start. It is about letting go of regrets and finding gratitude for the little things. If you pull the reversed four of cups, be ready to wake up.
