♌ LEO… SOMEBODY MAY BE GETTING IN THE WAY, BUT THE BIGGER TEA IS WHAT YOU’RE STILL TIED TO. STOP CHASING APPROVAL FROM PLACES THAT KEEP LEAVING YOU OUT. 🚫👀⛓️💸
SERIES: What’s The Tea
ORACLE DECK USED: What’s The Tea
ORACLE: Groupie reversed with Cock Blocking at the bottom of the deck
TAROT: The Devil, 5 of Pentacles, 6 of Pentacles with 10 of Cups reversed at the bottom of the deck
Leo, the tea today is you may be becoming much less interested in chasing attention, approval, popularity, or somebody else’s validation, and that shift could expose where interference has been happening. Groupie reversed can show pulling away from fan behavior, cliques, people-pleasing, copying the crowd, or constantly trying to stay close to whoever seems important. Cock Blocking underneath says something or somebody may also be standing between you and what you are trying to accomplish. SOMETHING IS IN THE WAY.
The Devil says the strongest issue may be an attachment that keeps repeating even when you already know it is unhealthy, while the 5 of Pentacles shows feeling excluded, unsupported, financially strained, or like you are constantly on the outside trying to get in. But the 6 of Pentacles changes the direction because reciprocity, assistance, resources, fair exchange, and somebody actually meeting you halfway may become much more important now. The 10 of Cups reversed underneath says a group, relationship, family dynamic, workplace, friendship circle, or picture-perfect situation may not be as harmonious as it looks.
🙅🏽♀️ GROUPIE REVERSED SAYS YOU MAY BE DONE CHASING THE ROOM
Groupie reversed can show pulling away from cliques, hype, popularity contests, fan behavior, people-pleasing, or putting somebody on a pedestal. Leo, you may be realizing you do not actually need to be included everywhere, invited to everything, acknowledged by everybody, or attached to whoever seems to have the most influence. THE CHASE IS GETTING OLD.
This can also show you noticing where admiration became overinvestment. Maybe you have been watching somebody too closely, comparing your progress, trying to impress a certain crowd, or assuming being accepted by a particular person or group would somehow validate what you are doing. The card says you may be ready to stop auditioning.
🚫 COCK BLOCKING SAYS SOMETHING MAY BE INTERFERING WITH YOUR PROGRESS
Cock Blocking can show somebody interfering, inserting themselves, discouraging a connection, slowing communication, creating unnecessary obstacles, or making it harder for something to develop naturally. Leo, this can happen socially, romantically, professionally, creatively, or financially. SOMEBODY MAY BE IN THE MIDDLE.
But not every obstacle is another person secretly plotting. Sometimes you are cock blocking yourself through comparison, procrastination, repeatedly returning to the wrong environment, refusing help, or allowing somebody else’s opinion to decide whether you move. Before blaming the room, check whether you are giving the room too much influence.
⛓️ THE DEVIL SAYS THE REAL PROBLEM MAY BE THE ATTACHMENT
The Devil can show unhealthy attachment, obsession, temptation, control, dependency, repeated habits, or feeling tied to something even when you know it is not good for you. Leo, the card may be asking why this person, group, outcome, habit, status symbol, or situation still matters THIS much.
And sometimes the attachment is not to the thing itself. It is to proving something. Proving they were wrong. Proving you belong. Proving you can get what somebody else has. Proving you are not being rejected. The Devil says freedom starts when you stop letting the need to prove yourself choose your next move.
🥶 5 OF PENTACLES SAYS FEELING LEFT OUT MAY BE PUSHING BUTTONS
The 5 of Pentacles can show exclusion, insecurity, financial pressure, loneliness, lack of support, or feeling like everybody else is inside while you are standing outside looking through the window. Leo, something may be hitting harder because it touches an old fear of not being chosen, included, supported, or valued. LEFT OUT FEELS PERSONAL.
But being left out of the wrong setup can actually save you trouble. Not every room you cannot get into is a room you would enjoy once you were inside. If somebody keeps making you fight for basic consideration, the question may not be how to win them over. It may be why you still want their approval so badly.
🥂 TIP FOR TODAY
Do ONE thing today without telling anybody first.
No poll. No “what do you think?” No asking five people whether it is a good idea.
Make one small choice because YOU LIKE IT.
Practice being your own yes. 💋
💸 6 OF PENTACLES SAYS WATCH WHO ACTUALLY RECIPROCATES
The 6 of Pentacles brings giving and receiving, help, money, generosity, resources, support, and relationships where effort can flow both ways. Leo, this card asks you to look at who actually shows up when something is needed. RECIPROCITY TELLS THE TRUTH.
This could also bring practical assistance. Somebody may offer advice, money, a referral, useful information, a resource, a helping hand, or simply the kind of support that makes something easier. Let yourself receive without immediately feeling obligated to repay every kindness tenfold. Healthy exchange does not require you to constantly prove your worth.
🏠 10 OF CUPS REVERSED SAYS THE “HAPPY GROUP” MAY HAVE CRACKS
The 10 of Cups reversed at the bottom of the deck can show family tension, friendship-group issues, relationship dissatisfaction, clashing expectations, or a situation that looks united publicly but feels very different privately. Leo, you may be seeing that everybody smiling together does not automatically mean everybody is truly aligned. PICTURE-PERFECT IS NOT THE SAME AS PEACEFUL.
This can also be a reminder not to idealize belonging. Sometimes you want into a particular relationship, friendship circle, workplace, family setup, or lifestyle because you are imagining how good it would feel once you finally get there. The card asks whether the reality actually matches the fantasy.
🍵 WHAT’S REALLY GOING ON FOR LEO
Leo, what’s really going on is you may be separating yourself from a dynamic where approval, popularity, belonging, or somebody else’s attention carried too much weight. Groupie reversed says you may finally be tired of chasing the room, while Cock Blocking says interference around a goal, connection, or next step may be revealing who or what complicates your progress.
The Devil and 5 of Pentacles show why this may have been difficult to leave alone. Something may trigger an old fear of rejection, lack, exclusion, or not being chosen, which can make you hold onto situations longer than they deserve. Sometimes the strongest attachment forms around the very thing that keeps making you feel shut out.
But the 6 of Pentacles says the story changes when you start measuring relationships by reciprocity instead of intensity. Who helps? Who contributes? Who celebrates without competing? Who gives without making you beg? The 10 of Cups reversed says you may stop chasing the picture of belonging and start choosing the people and spaces where you can actually EXHALE.
🎯 48-HOUR STOP-AUDITIONING CHALLENGE
For the next 48 hours, catch yourself whenever you start trying to impress, convince, compete, prove, or get somebody’s approval. Before doing anything, ask: “Would I still want this if nobody was watching?”
Then redirect one piece of effort toward somebody or something that already gives back. Support the friend who supports you. Work on the project that actually produces results. Spend time where you feel welcomed. Put money toward something useful instead of something meant to impress. Your mission is to stop auditioning for people who keep making you wonder whether you belong.
TYPE “I’M DONE AUDITIONING FOR ROOMS I DON’T EVEN NEED” IF YOU’RE READY TO STOP CHASING APPROVAL, CLOCK THE INTERFERENCE, AND PUT YOUR ENERGY WHERE IT’S ACTUALLY RECIPROCATED. ♌🚫⛓️💸
