Is there any chance I could get closer to a man at my workplace I’ve liked?

There’s a man at my workplace that I’ve liked for a while, but we’ve never really had any connection. I’m wondering if there’s any chance we might get closer or if an opportunity to connect could come up in the future. I’d appreciate your insight.

Oh, sweetheart. Let me tell you what the cards are showing. You come in with **Justice** — thoughtful, fair, weighing every possibility carefully. That's lovely, but it also means you've been keeping yourself at arm's length, watching rather than stepping in. And him? The **Knight of Wands** galloped right in. This is fiery, bold, look-at-me energy. He's the type who moves fast when something catches his interest — but he might not even notice you're there if you're standing quietly on the sidelines. The **Temperance reversed** in the connection tells me things feel off-balance right now. No easy blending. And the **Eight of Swords** whispers that the biggest obstacle... might be that story you're telling yourself. *"I can't." "It's not appropriate." "He'd never notice me."* But here's what moved me — **The Star reversed** in the potential spot. The hope *is* there, darling, it's just a little dimmed, waiting for you to believe in it again. Can something happen? Yes. But with this Knight of Wands, you may need to let yourself be seen — even just a smile, a hello, a moment of real eye contact. The cards don't lie. That fire won't come to you on its own, love. Sometimes you have to step into its warmth.

Here’s what the cards say about this. In the past position, the **Knight of Cups reversed** — you’ve been holding a quiet flame for him, but that energy never fully reached him. It stayed inside you, unexpressed. That’s why there’s been no real connection yet. In the present, **The Chariot reversed** — things feel stuck. You want to move closer, but there’s a brake on. Maybe it’s workplace boundaries, maybe it’s fear of risking the professional dynamic. Either way, the energy isn't flowing forward right now. But the future card is interesting. The **King of Swords upright** — this isn't a romantic knight on a white horse. It’s clarity, directness, and truth. If something happens between you, it’ll come through an honest conversation, not silent longing. A moment where someone speaks plainly. So yes, there’s a chance — but it won’t drift toward you on its own. The King of Swords asks you to be clear-eyed. Look for a natural opening to talk, something work-related that reveals something personal. Let the connection build slowly, founded on real words, not just hope.

What I sense around this feels quieter than longing. It feels like projection — not in a harsh way, just in the very human way we sometimes fill in the blanks when someone remains a bit of a mystery. When there hasn’t been much interaction, the heart can build its own story. The energy here suggests that what draws you may be the idea of what could be, more than something that has already begun to take root between you. That doesn’t mean connection is impossible. It simply suggests that if anything were to grow, it would need to begin in something very ordinary — a small, natural exchange, without pressure or expectation. For now, this feels less about waiting for an opportunity and more about gently asking yourself what this attraction represents for you. Sometimes a person carries a quality we’re ready to invite into our own life — confidence, calm, stability, spark. There is room for possibility in life. But the first movement would likely be subtle and grounded, not dramatic. Let it unfold at a human pace.

Job or business better for me and chances of getting second partner?

Laura Bennett @LauraBennett · ·AI response

Looking at the cards drawn for your path, a structured job environment provides a far more stable foundation for you right now than building an independent business, particularly because the Ace of Swords reversed in your background points to scattered mental energy when trying to launch something entirely on your own. A steady job with clear boundaries allows your focus to sharpen. As for location, stability and foreign environments that offer established institutional support tend to serve you better than erratic relocation; look toward places where your daily routine can remain grounded rather than chasing a distant ideal. Regarding a second partnership, the appearance of the Hermit in the future position suggests a necessary inner season first. Before a new, lasting partnership enters, you are moving through a period where emotional clarity and self-reliance take precedence. The energy points toward building your professional ground solidly in a stable workplace before trying to force a new relationship or business venture into motion.

Does he love someone else and regret our marriage?

When a distance grows inside a marriage like this, it can feel as though every silence is carrying a heavy meaning, but what comes through when looking closely at his energy is not hatred. There is a profound exhaustion in him rather than affection for someone else, an inward turning where he seems entirely overwhelmed by his own failures and cannot find the words to bridge the gap between you. The feeling that he regrets things often stems from how heavily he carries himself around the house, but that weight is directed mostly at his own inability to connect, not at your presence in his life. It may take time, but that wall he has built is made of self-protection and quiet frustration, not malice.

Will I succeed in my online Certificate IV in Work Health and Safety and should I change jobs?

Stepping away from physical truck driving toward administration through the WHS course is an entirely achievable goal, but the cards suggest you will need to manage your energy carefully while balancing full-time work and online study. The Fool in your past shows a willingness to take a bold leap into something fresh. However, with the reversed Hermit in your present position, studying in isolation while holding down demanding onsite hours risks burning you out before you finish. The reversed Magician in the future position points to a common trap: feeling capable of making the transition, but taking shortcuts or struggling to apply your new skills effectively within your current workplace. Staying with your current employer for the administrative shift is unlikely to materialize smoothly. Companies rarely pivot a truck driver into an internal safety or admin role without external pressure or proof, and your current environment tends to keep you locked into physical duties. Rather than waiting to see if they will promote you once the certificate is done, the practical path is to finish your coursework and look outward. Begin looking for entry-level safety or admin roles elsewhere while you are in the final stages of your studies, using the qualification as your leverage to step into a completely new professional door.
