Ques
In what way can I make a living while pursuing X as a career?

I think what this is saying is to save first. You may not see something coming your way while doing that so be prepared before you do so.

How is X handling things?

To me this indicates a period of swift action that uses your creative passion and energy to quickly elevate yourself to the job that lets you make a living but the more balanced approach for the long-term career. If you have any current ideas you are contemplating about how to make a living right now - go for it but make sure you are keeping your activities for your career regarding x within reason so you don't get burned out.

Q: On what can I focus my confidence and creative energy today?

10 of Wands / Prince of Swords

X may be trying to avert his or her fears in order to avoid taking the next step or entering a new phase in their life. I see X as focusing a little too much on making other people do what they want because they are afraid of the next step in their own development (although they may not even be aware of this).

Thanks for the advice. I have zero income now so I don't see how I can save for x.. I am contemplating another career, a business y. Per your reading perhaps I can juggle both (wanted to ask next if I can maybe take on both as y can help make a living while x will take a while before I can turn pro and earning income off it....but you answered my question here) thank you so much.

I also felt the cards didn't directly answer your question but just went with what I felt they were saying. I got the impression it meant, whatever you do, now is the time (even if that is looking for a job). I appreciate the feedback.

Look at the ways in which you are defended against taking charge of your passion in life and running with it fully. Self-examination of blocks in your mental outlook will release the prosperity you are seeking.

5 of cups / Ace of cups

Looking at the positive aspects of what remains with E and taking your focus of the issues altogether will allow you to see the positive and also will allow love and connection to flow more freely. There is great potential here for renewal as well as new connections which inspire a very positive future - it seems like a fresh start.

World/Judgment
You need to stop letting the world in. You need to block out things more.

What does X need from me?

Hanged Man/King of Swords RX

Not to be tempted to cut him down publicly if he appears despondent.He needs you to witness how he is feeling without judgement.
