Chapter Summary
After listening to the club members interpret the last card, Lin Xiaoxiao finally smiled and breathed a sigh of relief: "That scared me to death! " The club member collected all the cards, washed them again, and spread them out in front of Zhou Yue. Lin Xiaoxiao was clearly more excited about the wonderful hope brought by the "star," while Zhou Yue paid more attention to the hints from the "Justice Reversed" and "Hermit.
After listening to the club members interpret the last card, Lin Xiaoxiao finally smiled and breathed a sigh of relief: "That scared me to death!
Luckily, it turned out well in the end!
The Star card is so beautiful!
""Your turn, please choose your card.
" The club member collected all the cards, washed them again, and spread them out in front of Zhou Yue.
Zhou Yue quickly scanned the card array and, without hesitation, decisively drew three cards.
The first card Zhou Yue drew was the High Priestess (upright).
The card depicts a wise woman seated between black and white pillars, holding a scroll, with a crescent moon at her feet, symbolizing intuition and wisdom.
"What is it you're asking about?
" the member asked Zhou Yue.
"I'm asking about my overall fortune during my university years, especially my academic and interpersonal experiences.
"The member nodded after hearing this, looked at the card in front of him, and a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes: "The Priestess in her prime.
"This indicates that you are currently introspective, intuitive, and insightful.
You tend to understand the world through observation, learning, and reflection rather than rushing into action.
You may possess considerable academic potential or some kind of unrevealed, profound wisdom.
This is a stage of accumulation and preparation.
Zhou Yue nodded; this interpretation aligned well with her self-perception.
She immediately flipped over the second card, which was the Justice card (reversed).
The goddess of justice, holding scales and a sword, is reversed when the card is reversed; the scales are tilted, and the sword may not be able to make a fair judgment.
The member pondered, “Justice reversed… This suggests that you may encounter some challenges related to fairness, decision-making, or balance in the near future.
”Perhaps in your studies or interpersonal relationships, you may feel that things are not balanced, or you need to make difficult choices in some complex situations, where information may not be completely symmetrical.
You need to be exceptionally calm and objective, avoid prejudice, and strive to see the whole picture.
Zhou Yue frowned slightly.
She rarely encountered situations where she couldn't make a choice, but it was normal for her to be less calm and objective in her thinking.
After all, she was a rather carefree and easygoing person.
Zhou Yue remained noncommittal about the second card.
She flipped over the last card, which was the Hermit (upright).
The card depicts an old man standing alone atop a snow-capped mountain, holding a lantern, symbolizing introspection, the search for truth, and the guidance of solitude.
Upon seeing this card, the member pondered for a moment before interpreting it with profound meaning: "The Hermit, upright.
"This is not a card that represents loneliness as a bad thing.
It suggests that on your future path, you may sometimes need to temporarily step away from the noise and engage in introspection and independent thinking.
Through solitude and in-depth exploration, you will find your own answers and direction.
It suggests that true wisdom and solutions come from within, rather than from relying on external circumstances or others.
After listening, Zhou Yue fell into a brief state of thought.
The last two cards are almost saying the same thing: she should pay more attention to calm and independent thinking in her daily life, instead of following others or being swayed by hearsay.
However, since it was just a metaphysical divination, Zhou Yue didn't take it entirely seriously.
Not only did she think this way, but after the reading, the club member also smiled and summarized, "That concludes the card reading.
Remember, Tarot reveals potential trends and energies, not absolute destiny.
How you understand and utilize these revelations is up to you.
"After thanking Zhou Yue, Lin Xiaoxiao and Zhou Yue stood up, both with thoughtful expressions on their faces.
Lin Xiaoxiao was clearly more excited about the wonderful hope brought by the "star," while Zhou Yue paid more attention to the hints from the "Justice Reversed" and "Hermit.
""So?
Do you think it's accurate?
" Su Yuqing asked them curiously in a low voice.
Lin Xiaoxiao quickly chimed in, "I think it's pretty accurate!
"Zhou Yue was more objective: "It's interesting.
It's a bit general, but some points do correspond to certain ideas.
Let's just treat it as a psychological game.
"She clearly maintained a rational and critical attitude.
At this moment, she seemed to be applying the qualities that the tarot card reading had reminded her to maintain.
Chen Mo watched quietly throughout.
He neither approved nor disapproved of this "game" based on semiotics and psychological suggestion, but he would not interfere as long as it did not involve real superstition harming people.
Zhao Ya seemed very interested in the whole process and listened very attentively.
She wanted to try it, but after thinking about it, she decided against it.
After all, she wasn't used to discussing her inner thoughts in public.
"Would you like to try?
" Chen Mo asked Su Yuqing, holding her soft, boneless hand.
"No, thank you.
" Su Yuqing touched the Dream-Tracing Jade on her neck; she already knew a lot.
After lingering for a while at the mysterious booth and experiencing its unique atmosphere, which differed from other clubs, the six of them continued their exploration with various thoughts in mind.
However, before they got up, a female member suddenly stood up and looked at Su Yuqing.
"Wait a minute, student.
"At this shout, the six people immediately stopped and turned around to look.
The female member quickly ran over and looked at the [Su Meng Jue] that Su Yuqing was hanging around her neck for easy carrying.
"Excuse me, where did you get this?
" The female member pointed to the jade pendant around Su Yuqing's neck.
"It was given to me by an old Taoist priest," Su Yuqing answered without giving it much thought, while asking curiously, "Is there something wrong with this jade?
""No, it just feels very similar to something called 'Causal Jade' that I saw in an ancient book, so I asked about it.
""Causal Jade?
That sounds mysterious.
What are its effects?
" Lin Xiaoxiao asked curiously.
"It is said to be able to perfect the incomplete cause and effect, but after all, it is recorded in ancient books, and no one has ever seen the real thing.
""How can you tell that this jade looks a lot like that 'Cause and Effect Jade'?
This looks like just an ordinary piece of jade.
" Chen Mo asked immediately out of curiosity.
"Normally, it does look like an ordinary piece of white jade, but from a certain angle, it looks like a piece of transparent glass.
Just now, when this student turned around, I happened to see it from that angle, which is why I came to ask about it.
" The female club member was very open and honest in answering all her questions.
Upon hearing this, Chen Mo immediately grabbed the Su Meng Jue from Su Yuqing's chest out of curiosity.
For a moment, he forgot about the current situation and tried to look at the jade from various angles.
Since the jade was hanging around Su Yuqing's neck, some angles were a bit off.
Chen Mo was so engrossed in looking at it that his head was directly resting on Su Yuqing's soft chest.
Fortunately, everyone around was also curious about the peculiarity of the jade and was examining it closely, so no one paid attention to Chen Mo and Su Yuqing's interaction.
