(passing through on friendsfriends)

I am intrigued by this spread and plan to try it myself. The piece that is speaking to me at the moment is the card representing something to get rid of or sacrifice. Taking your reading and applying it to myself, I would say that for me, the opposite of optimism would be pessimism. What would it mean to sacrifice my negative view of the world, of myself? Why do I hold on to it? What would I lose by giving it up? Hmm...

Thanks for posting about your reading.
