Ask Lissa: Trusting the Pause When Life Feels Uncertain

Ever feel like life pressed the cosmic pause button, leaving you stuck between what’s familiar and what’s next? We’ve all been there. Today, in “Ask Lissa,” we’re exploring how those uncertain moments—when you’re weighing career shifts, new adventures, and even new love—can be your most magical opportunities for growth.

If you’re feeling hopeful yet hesitant, lean in: sometimes the universe whispers loudest when you pause to listen. Let’s navigate this transformative space together—because trust me, the best is yet to come.

Hopeful and Ready

Dear Lissa,

This is the year of uncertainty but I truly feel it’s going to be a transformative year. I am looking for a job but interested in starting my own business. Can you tell me a little bit about that? Also, any possibility of finding love this year?

Thanks,
Hopeful & Ready

Dear Hopeful & Ready,

I love your energy—uncertainty may be in the air, but transformation is brewing, and you feel it. That’s powerful. Let’s take a look at what the cards have to say.

First, the King of Swords reversed tells me you’ve been feeling lost in a mental fog, struggling with indecision, maybe even second-guessing yourself more than usual. But here’s the secret: even in this uncertainty, there’s a quiet power within you, waiting to be recognized. You’re not as lost as you think—you’re just recalibrating.

Now, in the present moment, we meet The Hanged Man upright. This is the Universe pressing the pause button—not as a punishment, but as an invitation. Something in your subconscious is ready to be seen and released. This is a time to surrender to the stillness, reassess what you truly want in love, career, and life. No forcing, no rushing—just observing. Take walks. Meditate. Let your mind wander without pressure. Sometimes, clarity comes when we stop chasing it.

And in the near future?

A shift is coming. Within six months, a new cycle begins, bringing opportunities that align with the lessons you’re learning now.

The key is to honor your journey so far—the struggles, the growth, the quiet wins. I highly recommend journaling if you aren’t already.

Capture your thoughts and emotions so you can look back and see just how much you’ve evolved.

One more thing—yes, we are in strange times, but something changed with the recent New Moon in Aquarius. I’ve felt it. Many of my clients have felt it. There’s a collective shift toward something lighter, more aligned, and filled with fresh possibilities. And for you? Love, career, purpose—it’s all in motion. Stay open. And if you get the chance to travel in the next six months, do it—something (or someone) may be waiting for you out there.

Trust the pause. The best is yet to come.

Warmly,
Lissa
