Pile 1: Book

They Don’t See a Future

It appears as if your crush doesn’t feel as if a relationship with you has a future. The first card, Temperence, indicates a more neutral feeling coming from them. They’d be willing to pursue romance with you if it could work, but they don’t think that’s true, so they aren’t going to be emotionally invested in you.

They appear to believe you’re overly emotional given the Queen of Swords, Reversed. This emotion bomb from their perspective means something in the relationship would go wrong. Specifically, the Four of Wands, Reversed indicates they don’t think a relationship with you could survive something like marriage.

So they’ve definitely put some thought into a relationship with you beyond just mere attraction. They’ve contemplated you in a romantic sense.

But the more committed you become as a couple, the more dangerous it is from their perspective.

Now this is what they feel about you and it doesn’t necessarily mean it’s true. But it is an obstacle you need to surmount if you want to be together.

How to Change Their Mind

First, you need to consider if this person is right or not. There may be nothing wrong with you, or there could be, but they definitely perceive some sort of mismatch.

If you’ve just gotten to know each other, your crush may have a shallow understanding of who you really are. If that’s the case, try to spend more quality time together even if it isn’t romantic so they can see you for who you really are.

But if that time has already been spent together, strongly consider whether or not you’re a complementary couple.

You may like someone, but they may not have the same vision of the future you do.

Further Consideration

It’s possible that this spread can indicate a deeper problem than you realize. How you want to be perceived and how you are perceived are two very different things.

A funny example from when I was in college was that multiple people from professors to students in different classes were convinced I was a fan of true crime. Yet I had never mentioned any interest in the genre.

They believed I spent my time at home reading thriller novels and dissecting the evidence of criminal cases. But I hate true crime and scary stories. I much prefer happy romances with pretty dresses and big country houses.

So why did everyone think this of me? Because I was one of the most serious people they had ever met and at the time I was a perfectionist. They also assumed I was gloomy because I was introverted.

This is something you need to wrestle with in your dating life, and it may be why you struggle. How you present yourself may not be how you want to be perceived. You may not want to change who you are, but it may require some change in topics you bring up in conversation or what you list on dating profiles so people get better insight into what you’re like.

You need to figure out what traits and interests you want to signal to your crush so they perceive you accurately. And if you’re unsure you’re being perceived correctly – ask what they think your favorite type of movie is, what your goals in life are, and so on.

People write stories in their heads about you. Don’t let them rewrite your entire identity into a fiction in their heads.

Pile 2: Wizard

They Like You and Don’t Know How to Handle That

Your crush is kicking and screaming their way towards you. It appears as if they recognize you’re the best choice possible, but they’re struggling emotionally with that reality.

I think of a romantic comedy here where the love interest believes they want one type of person and then discover once meeting the opposite that’s who they truly have chemistry with.

The Eight of Swords, Reversed is them learning how to liberate themselves from their previous relationship shopping list. The more time they spend with you, the more likely they’ll accept their feelings.

But there is resistance. This person is recovering from cognitive dissonance, meaning what they thought was true wasn’t and your existence proves them wrong.

Beating Around the Bush

Everything in this spread indicates they’re learning to accept their feelings. The Five of Cups, Reversed is that acceptance, but it’s possible that they’re going to tell themselves you represent a new shopping list.

So you have certain traits they like, but they’re going to wonder if they could upgrade to someone even better. Example: a person learns they don’t like athletes at all, but geeks, and so when they realize that they may start exploring their interest in all geeks. Not just the one they developed a crush on first.

That means their acceptance of their feelings towards you may not translate into a relationship right away. They may try to interact with other people like you. This may trigger you because you’ll realize that they must like you, but they keep showing interest in your mirror image.

This primarily comes from them trying to fight the inner turmoil they’re experiencing from being wrong in the first place. Because you proved them wrong, they want to take control of their perception by trying to find someone else to have a crush on.

You’re the One, Eventually

The final card in the spread, Seven of Cups, Reversed, is making a choice and rejecting all other options. There’s a strong chance that your crush is eventually going to accept your romantic overtures or even ask you out.

But this is only going to come after they eliminate all the other options.

What does this mean? It indicates that they realize you’re an individual instead of a representation of a love shopping list.

The way to speedrun that change is to spend more time with them so they see you as a person with individual quirks. If you try to embody the traits of others that they’re showing attention to or talking about, it’ll only delay or even prevent them from seeing you as the person they liked all along.

No doubt this person was pursuing love in a very logical way. They thought they needed to achieve love rather than feel it. Expect their romantic attentions to be immature or messy. That doesn’t mean they dislike you. They just don’t have true experience.

Pile 3: Clouds

Accidentally in Love

Your crush has had feelings for you for a while. The Princess of Cups, Reversed is an indication that nothing they’re feeling is new. However, they don’t really know what to do with their feelings. They may believe you don’t like them back, so they’re afraid to act on them.

But your crush does want to act on them given The Chariot card. This is a card of major momentum so my impression is that their long-held feelings towards you could indicate a desire for a deeper commitment.

The final card in your spread, Prince of Swords, does imply some impulse. That means despite their desire to act and be with you, they don’t have a plan and they’re unlikely to act with intention. That means they’re far more likely to accidentally confess they like you. In other words, they don’t currently have a plan to confess even though they dream of that being a future goal.

What to Do

So what do you do with this type of person? The first thing you need to know is that there’s a 50/50 chance nothing happens. The reason I say this is that they appear to be afraid to act and don’t plan to act. Wanting to act isn’t enough without intention. They lack purposeful intention.

That means everything needs to align for them to accidentally admit they like you or for you to act in such a way that they’re encouraged to admit their feelings.

Simply flirting with them to trigger them asking you out is unlikely to work. There appears to be a lot of self-doubt in your crush, and they might not take such signals seriously. They’ll doubt their perception and think they’re making it up in their head.

Now you have two options: you could wait on fate to bring you together, and it does seem that’s a possibility, but not a guarantee.

The other option is to strategically convince your crush you want them.

Romantic Strategy

Have you ever met someone who was told a compliment or given a gift and they refused it? Your crush is like that. They want a big sign before they’re convinced their self-doubt is imaginary.

They’ve probably been convinced by culture, personal experiences, or even romantic stories that any confession of love requires a major overture or meet cute (those are the chance meetings that bring a couple together by fate). They don’t seem to believe that someone could walk up to them, flirt, or ask them out so they would take any such sudden actions as bullying.

When I was in middle school, older boys would walk up to younger girls and ask them out. The girls would be so happy, but it was just a prank.

That is what your crush fears. So letting mutual acquaintances know that you like them or being persistent with your flirtations without the expectation they’ll take you out immediately is required. Don’t stalk them, but give it a few tries before you give up.

If you still can’t get through to them, know that they just may be filled with too much self-doubt right now to trust themselves. But don’t give up until you’ve tried at least three times. Imagine a shy, low confidence person and this is how your crush is about committing or confessing to you.
