02:29And I think that's a good mindset also to have as we open 2026 and that's why we're also grateful to have you here in the show.
02:41I'm grateful also. Thank you.
02:42So before we start, can you quickly, can you explain to our viewers what tarot is?
02:53And because a lot of them are curious about it.
02:57Okay. So the tarot is a deck of 78 cards.
03:02So the tarot is actually a symbolic language.
03:06It is a study. It is a practice of people who actually go deeper into it.
03:10So each cards represent themes, life themes, perspectives, emotions, life situations that can reflect reality, that can reflect real life.
03:24So when we put the cards together or I get to read the cards together, I can see like a story.
03:32Okay. So when I'm reading a client, it really depends on the aspect in their lives, what they're touching on.
03:38So for example, it's about love life and the cards come out in a certain way.
03:44So I will read the cards in that way lang, right?
03:46So whatever will come out also, it's just a reflection of what my client is already going through.
03:52So sometimes they see it as like, people see it as like magic or something, you know, out of this world.
04:00But actually it's just, it's just reading your energy.
04:03It's just reading how you are right now.
04:05It's just a reflection and a mirror that tarot guards.
04:08So yeah, so it's very simple.
04:09Like, it's not simple because I actually, we need to study it thoroughly because of the symbolism, right?
04:16Because of the art of it also.
04:17But the way I read is really about just trusting my intuition.
04:22I'm just trusting myself that I can help my client.
04:25It's just that.
04:26Yeah.
04:27So how different or how similar is it with fortune telling?
04:32Almost similar.
04:34Almost very similar.
04:35It's like, it's surprisingly very accurate.
04:39It's surprisingly very, you know, it resonates a lot because,
04:42because tarot kasi shows patterns and it shows us options, okay?
04:50But the number one thing that we have to focus on is that we are just shown a situation
04:56and it's up to us to respond to that situation.
05:00So it's kind of fortune telling, but everything I'm saying is you already know it.
05:05Does that make sense?
05:06It's like, parang, they think it's magic because it looks, they think, people think it's magic
05:13because it, they already know it.
05:15Like, oh, how did you know this?
05:16I'm like, oh, it's just your reflection.
05:18Like, it's just a mirror.
05:19Tarot reading is just a mirror.
05:20So that, does that also, the reason why, in the conversation, there's a lot of questions
05:29also, so that, that's also how the energy is also being read?
05:35What do you mean, sorry?
05:36So for example, ah, maybe later on when we'll get a sample on how it's done.
05:42But is it also about my energy as I also choose, for example, a particular card?
05:47Yeah.
05:48And then the reason for the interaction is because I get to share also?
05:53That's why it's right.
05:56That's the, I don't know, that's the, I guess, mysterious part about it.
06:02Because even if you get a card, it's really up to the reader.
06:07It's about the tarot reader who interprets it.
06:10So the card could be anything.
06:13But then the one who's the interpreter, are they open-minded enough?
06:19Have they left their bias?
06:21You know what I mean?
06:21So I feel like the more the reader is intuitive, like strongly intuitive,
06:27then I can properly channel through your energy, right?
06:32So did that answer your question?
06:34Yes.
06:34Oh my God.
06:34Okay.
06:35No, I think, I think our viewers will have a better appreciation of it if we'll take,
06:40example on how it works.
06:43So sige, can I, we will draw a card?
06:46Sige.
06:46Oh my gosh.
06:47Okay, okay.
06:48And then see how 2026 will feel like.
06:52Do you want to draw it or do you want me to draw it?
06:55Which one is the better?
06:56I mean.
06:57I'm asking you, yes or do you?
06:58Sige, yes.
06:59Okay, go.
07:00Okay.
07:00Sige, sige.
07:012026.
07:09I usually shuffle the card.
07:11And I'm also closing my eyes.
07:13So that, yeah.
07:15Sige.
07:15Think of an intention for 2026, collectively, for everybody.
07:20Ah, for everybody.
07:22This is collectively.
07:23Or do you want for you?
07:24No, collective.
07:24Okay.
07:25Sige.
07:25So what do you want?
07:28I'll...
07:28Wait lang, wait lang.
07:29Sige.
07:32Okay.
07:37Okay.
07:37And I'll give you this.
07:45Okay.
07:48So we got the Five of Swords.
07:50This is called the Five of Swords.
07:53Okay.
07:54Can you see that?
07:55Okay.
07:57Wow.
07:58Wow.
08:00So we're talking about personal growth, right?
08:07Personal reflection.
08:09So I feel like people will be less compromising this year.
08:16Okay?
08:16They will be less, parang...
08:19People will focus more on protecting their energy this year, talaga.
08:25It's parang, ano, gani.
08:26There's a shift na no more people pleasing.
08:29I'm gonna do what my heart wants me to do.
08:33I'm gonna do what my mind is telling me,
08:36what I should do with my life,
08:38with my personal life.
08:40Not being directed by other people's influence anymore,
08:43but more on my focus.
08:46Where am I gonna go?
08:47Where am I...
08:48You know, what's my focus in my life?
08:50What's my priorities?
08:51How can I simplify my life into
08:53what I'm actually wanting for myself
08:56and for my career, for my family?
08:59You know, like...
09:00Because if you see this card...
09:01Okay, I'll show you the symbolism.
09:04So when it's swords,
09:05when you're talking about swords,
09:07it talks about the mind.
09:09Anything mental.
09:10Communication.
09:12Anything that...
09:14Anything mindset.
09:16Anything...
09:16You're about your mindset.
09:18Okay?
09:18But if you see this card,
09:19this person is walking away with his swords.
09:22Look at that.
09:24Right?
09:24And there are people crying in the back.
09:26Right?
09:28So it's like...
09:30I'm gonna do what I have to do.
09:32Even if it disappoints some people.
09:34Even if it disappoints some people.
09:36Like, my priorities,
09:37I will keep, you know,
09:38like, focus on my priorities.
09:41Right?
09:41And protecting my energy.
09:43Though there is a kind of...
09:44There is a kind of negative side to this card,
09:48which is...
09:49not really considering others anymore.
09:52Of course, there's still a negative side to that.
09:54Like, maybe not being compassionate.
09:56Maybe less...
09:58Being less...
10:00Connected to people.
10:02But I feel like it is more of...
10:04Less connected to people
10:05because they don't serve your highest good.
10:08Does that make sense?
10:09So, I feel like there's a lot of people
10:11who will end up in self-reflection.
10:13Assessing their energy
10:14and protecting that energy.
10:15This year.
10:17Okay, let's get two more.
10:18But can I...
10:20Oh, yes, please.
10:21Yes, yes.
10:21Maybe it's your energy.
10:22It's your energy.
10:24No, because if that's the overall trend,
10:27and correct me if I'm wrong,
10:28but one of the advantages
10:30to have conversations like this
10:32with an expert like you,
10:35it's because there was one part
10:36when you said that
10:37it can be good
10:39if it serves the...
10:41What do you call that?
10:42The highest good.
10:43The highest good.
10:44The highest self.
10:46The highest self.
10:47But it can also go the other way.
10:49If people will no longer think about others
10:55in making their choices.
10:58And I think that's why
10:59my takeaway at least
11:00for this particular card
11:01is at least it's showing our viewers
11:03and people like me
11:05that there is a possible future
11:09and correct me if I'm wrong,
11:10but it's still up to us
11:12which side we will go.
11:14Yes.
11:15No?
11:15Okay.
11:16So that's my takeaway
11:17for the first card.
11:18And hopefully our viewers
11:19also got that.
11:21So I love how you
11:22articulate that
11:25because like in life,
11:27we can always choose
11:29the fear-based path.
11:30That's a good point.
11:31Or a love-based path.
11:33Okay.
11:33That's a good point.
11:34Okay.
11:34So it's really up to the viewers,
11:37to you guys,
11:38whatever path you want to choose.
11:41But this year is about mindset now.
11:43Mindset.
11:44Focus on your potential.
11:47Focus on yourself.
11:48Focus on what you want to achieve.
11:50So with that,
11:52it really takes a lot of personal growth
11:56and personal assessing of your energy.
12:00Personal energy.
12:00Okay?
12:01We can get two more.
12:02Yes.
12:02You want?
12:02Yes.
12:03Okay, go.
12:05Is this your first time?
12:07It is my first time.
12:08Oh my gosh!
12:10How do you feel?
12:11Are you nervous?
12:12Yeah, I am.
12:13I am.
12:15I like this.
12:15Okay.
12:21It looks Christmas.
12:22Yeah, it looks good.
12:25We have the Ten of Pentacles.
12:26Okay, I think I'm starting to get a picture.
12:32Can we get one more?
12:33Sure.
12:39Okay.
12:42This is Revelation.
12:43Oh.
12:43Oh.
12:46Wow.
12:47Wow, wait.
12:47I'm getting a lot of message.
12:49Wait, wait.
12:50Oh.
12:51Wait, wait, wait.
13:01Okay.
13:01So 2026, I feel like from Five of Swords to the Ten of Pentacles, Ten of Pentacles is family.
13:21It's all about family legacy, family community.
13:25It's all about focusing on what makes the community grow, not only financially, but stable, secure way.
13:36And I feel like through, to get to this, I feel like we have to reveal the devil.
13:42The devil is not necessarily like the demon, okay guys.
13:45It's just the energy of kind of the devil.
13:51Like for example, like in addiction, if people have addictions, people have bad habits, toxic relationships, you get into toxic situations, you know.
13:59Like banging yourself in the head all the time, like not knowing when to stop.
14:04You know what I mean?
14:05So just being in bad situations, bad environment will be revealed in 2026.
14:14So a lot of things, I mean already in 2025, they're going to be exposed.
14:18Correct.
14:18And more in 2026 actually.
14:20Okay, so I feel like these are people who, for example, like exploit people, will be revealed in 2026.
14:29So many things negative, that is harming the community.
14:34That's keeping them from this.
14:36Yes.
14:36Yes.
14:37Oh my God.
14:38Oh my God, you're so right.
14:40Yes.
14:41But because this is the priority, community, the growth of community, the stability of the community, the family.
14:53For example, in Cebu, people will see more, will need more to be stable and to see stability in, for example, like the government.
15:01For example, but I don't want to get into politics.
15:04It's just that the priority in people's minds will shift.
15:08Because people will not need others anymore to externally validate what they're doing.
15:17But everyone's going to go into like a reflection mode.
15:21Wait, this is what I need lang.
15:22Like why are they, why are they doing this?
15:25Like, you know, like the people who are in power.
15:27Okay, so that will be revealed more because people's minds will change.
15:33People's minds will focus on their well-being and the well-being of their family.
15:37Okay, so yeah.
15:39But there's the part actually which I also like and let's see if I understand it correctly.
15:44When you said that it's good also that for us and generally in 2026 to be able to decide for the great highest self or highest good,
16:01it should not be from a place of fear but a place of love.
16:07I think that's the most, one of the critical components that people like me and our viewers should also capture.
16:16Okay, this one can still lead us, generally, to the greatest good.
16:22Yes.
16:23If we decide from a space of love and not out of fear.
16:29Yes, yes.
16:30So did I understand it correctly?
16:32Yes, definitely.
16:32Okay, so explaining the, for the viewers lang, explaining being, living in fear is like living in self-doubt.
16:42Okay, living in shame, living in guilt, living in parang not being able to reconnect with your self, reconnect with your heart.
16:53So people who live in fear-based life kasi are all in the mind, are all parang overthinking about their actions,
17:01having anxiety with their actions, but I feel like it's really, I don't know, like the, the anxiety is sometimes cultural, sometimes.
17:10Or parang, it goes back that mapasa lang siya from generations, but still like, we can still choose to live in love-based love.
17:20Like, we can start with ourselves, you know, being compassionate with others, having empathy, you know, having, having to move in life with more of your heart, you know, not anymore with what you can get from another person or, you know, how, how you can gain from the situation.
17:40You know what I mean?
17:41So, I feel like we can choose to live in fear-based or love-based, but here we can still reveal the things that, we can allow the revelation to not, not make it about, about blaming, but more of how can we come together?
17:59Even though there's a revelation, like, how can we help each other through this revelation? Does that make sense?
18:06And how can we not condemn the people, but more on support their, support them to move into a love-based mindset? Does that make sense?
18:18It makes sense, actually.
18:20Yeah.
18:20And then, correct me if I am receiving, yeah, yeah, correctly.
18:25So, this one is actually telling the general public, which includes me, that there will be certain realities that probably we did not confront in the past that will become more obvious this year, you know?
18:47So, it can be, of course, we don't want to go into politics, but it can be somewhere in our personal life, it can also be in the things around us, you know?
18:56There are certain undesired realities that are lurking somewhere that will become more obvious or clearer this year, but I think I would always go back to what you said, you know?
19:11Instead of looking at it from the place of fear, it's really to the space of love, you know?
19:16Yes.
19:16Like, how we can come together.
19:18Yeah.
19:19Sige, read the comment.
19:21Ah, okay.
19:21Sige.
19:23Okay.
19:23With everything that's happened, the Filipinos are a lot less tolerant to abuse and corruption, be it personally or politically.
19:34It makes sense that with everything that's happened in 2025, that folks would demand more and are more inclined to expose the evil festering us.
19:47So, this is from, I hope I pronounced your name correctly, this is from Lian Lim.
19:52Yeah.
19:52Yes.
19:53Okay.
19:54Wow.
19:55Yes.
19:56I feel like 2025 was all about shedding, like everybody says.
20:00So, that is…
20:01There were some surprises.
20:03Surprises, yeah.
20:04We already knew, but they become more concrete.
20:07And I feel like people are more, like what she said, like less tolerant, especially the new generation.
20:13I love the Gen Zs.
20:15I love them because they're like no BS.
20:18They're so no BS.
20:19They fight for people's rights.
20:22They fight for community.
20:23And I feel like they're just more free to do that and more parang unapologetic.
20:31Does that make sense?
20:32And because of the age of…
20:34Which can also disappoint people, but…
20:36Yeah, which can also disappoint people, but awaken others also.
20:40To fight for other people also.
20:43Right?
20:44Yeah.
20:45Yes.
20:46You have more questions?
20:47Do you want to get more cards?
20:48Okay, I want.
20:50How about let's set an intention now.
20:54Why do you still dwell some more?
20:55I like the messaging so far.
20:582026.
20:59Okay, good.
20:59You are comforting the realities and then not necessarily considering what other people feel,
21:11but deciding and acting on these realities from a space of love.
21:17Yes, yes.
21:18No, the reason I welcome this because I think we talk about social media.
21:23Yeah, we did.
21:24And how…
21:25No, before the start of the show.
21:27Take up on me.
21:29And then because everybody now has an opinion.
21:32And then information, they also travel very fast.
21:35And let's assume that…
21:37Because there's also the context of fake news.
21:40There's also the context of real news.
21:43But I think…
21:44So that means more realities could really surface.
21:47But I think what we can do is to still find and act on those that we see.
21:52Yeah.
21:53From the space of love.
21:54Love, yes.
21:54How we can come together.
21:55And I feel like it's important to assess what you're reading and, you know, assess what you're seeing.
22:01Because honestly, for me in my life, like I've removed, not completely the news, but removed anything that makes me feel a certain way.
22:15You know what I mean?
22:15Like, for example, like when I say feel a certain way, like there are news that we're not sure if it's true, you know?
22:24Like there's so much fake false propaganda, and it's just to…
22:28Which can also look legit.
22:29Yeah, which can also look legit.
22:32So I feel like I really encourage our viewers to please choose what you watch.
22:37And choose what you allowed your brain to absorb.
22:40Yun lang talaga.
22:41Because it's really important for us to have a clear mind so that we can approach life in a more open sense.
22:51Because that's how love-based life starts, you know, in a way.
22:55I think that's a good point.
22:57Because, correct me if I'm wrong, if I'm receiving it correctly.
23:02Because I think that the more obvious theme so far, especially with dealing with what we read in social media, is fake news, no?
23:13And real news.
23:14But even in the real ones, we need to even dig deeper.
23:19Yes.
23:20Because they can also have still their own bias, no?
23:24Yes.
23:24So, I think it's important to be more discerning.
23:27Discerning.
23:28That's the word.
23:30Sige.
23:30Sige.
23:31Now I'm exactly…
23:31Oh my god.
23:32Sige go.
23:32I'm not going to cross my side.
23:35Sige go lang.
23:37Okay.
23:38Wow, that's almost the same as this card.
23:40Oh.
23:40Okay.
23:41Oh, can we get two more?
23:42So I can see the whole picture na lang.
23:43This side.
23:44Okay.
23:48Last one.
23:49Land pa.
23:49I love this card.
24:04Because this is the Kouriput card.
24:08Okay.
24:08I feel like people are changing their minds about the value of money.
24:13And the value of material things since 2026.
24:15I feel like what's important now is how still grounded at peace you are.
24:22I feel like even if we're not doing this interview, even if I don't read, even if we don't get predictions for 2026, people are naturally drawn to self-reflection.
24:33Okay.
24:34Okay.
24:35So other than 2026 being the year of Fire Horse, Fire Horse is all about momentum, but aligned momentum.
24:43Okay.
24:43So if people need to recalibrate their energies before they move forward in their life in a more aligned way, they have to kind of wait.
24:55They kind of have to ground themselves first.
24:57What do I really want?
24:58What do I really want to achieve?
25:01Or who do I really prioritize in my life?
25:03What do I really prioritize in my life?
25:05So here, what I'm seeing is the priorities will change slowly, carefully.
25:12And I guess it starts with the material things.
25:15For example, if you're a person who has always loved brands, there's quality in brands, but sometimes I guess it's not as special.
25:30Depende.
25:30But depend as a person, right?
25:32But here, with the Four of Pentacles, you kind of change your mind about, okay, brands are this, but then maybe I can be more sustainable.
25:40Like maybe sustainable is more, what do you call this, good for me, even.
25:46It's all about themselves, man.
25:48It's all about personal choice, right?
25:50So I feel like they just shift into a more aware, more focused on themselves, but eventually it's community-based.
26:02But like the way it ripples out, you know, if you focus on yourself and your sustainability, the way you approach life, right?
26:15So here, with the Four of Pentacles, people will be more reserved with their resources, they will be more reserved with their energy, their time, their effort.
26:27It's just put into themselves more, okay?
26:31And saving, actually.
26:32People will save more this year, right?
26:35I feel like now, since there's self-reflecting, it's so important na whatever comes in 2027, 2028,
26:44it's more like an abundant kind of energy coming in.
26:50Later na.
26:53Oh my God.
26:53My mind is like, oh my God.
26:56No, the messages because it goes really fast and I need to relax.
27:00Okay.
27:01So I'm just going to read this Four of Swords.
27:04Okay.
27:04So in a way, Four of Swords is very spiritual.
27:08Okay.
27:08This is also, this is having mental peace, having mental rest.
27:13This is having to believe na I don't need people outside of me to kind of validate what I'm doing is right.
27:23As long as I am focused on myself, focused on my healing, focused on my growth, focused on my energy, then I think I'll be good.
27:34You know, and that's very spiritual actually.
27:36You know, having to focus on yourself is very mystical in a way.
27:40Because changing your mind, changing your beliefs into a better kind of, a better system will actually not only benefit you, your family, your friends, but also the community.
27:55Okay.
27:56But this Four of Pentacles, it's all about reserving resources.
28:00Okay.
28:01And keeping what's yours, yours.
28:03And putting, Mareg, only getting what you need and pushing away, not really allowing other energies to, what do you call it, infiltrate that.
28:16Okay.
28:16Does that make sense?
28:17Yes.
28:18Okay.
28:19So, for example, I'll put myself in the situation.
28:24Okay, go.
28:24So, for example, Mareg, the application that I'm seeing there is, there are still, because I know of certain people who will still go for certain brands.
28:35Okay.
28:35But this year, it's no longer just about the brand name, but on the value.
28:42The value, yes.
28:43Oh, no?
28:44More of that.
28:45No, because actually, while you were, let's see how this works also.
28:48Because while you were running into that, Mangud, I, so, and this is an example of how I try to be as open-minded and clear-headed as possible.
28:58So, I'm not into, into brands, but one, once upon a time, but one day when I went to at least Vegas and I got curious, so I went on one of the shops, but I will not endorse them.
29:10And then when I touched the fabric, I knew it was quality.
29:15Quality?
29:16Yeah.
29:16Okay, okay.
29:17So, that's when I realized that, oh, that's probably why people go for brands, not necessarily for the name or the brand, but also the quality.
29:26So, that was like an aha moment for me because I kept myself from going there.
29:30Oh, okay, right, right.
29:31And then finally when I touched it, I've never touched something like this in the past.
29:35Yeah, yeah, yeah.
29:36So, I think that's where I was coming from.
29:40Never?
29:41Yeah.
29:41Okay, okay.
29:42So, that's when I realized that, oh, there's a quality that goes with this.
29:47So, I think if I receive the message correctly, people will still go, not necessarily like frugal, no?
29:53But they will still go for quality, but not about the brand, or what prestige it will bring them.
30:07What will people think about what they're wearing?
30:10You get me.
30:11You get me.
30:14Exactly.
30:16Okay, so, yes, what else did you get?
30:20Katusa.
30:22Okay, so, the Four of Swords, I love how it came out because after the Devil card, even if people are going to get exposed here, people will reassess themselves.
30:32Like, where in my life have I been corrupt?
30:35Where in my life I have been not understanding others, or not giving compassion to others?
30:44So, where in my life now I should, you know, like, reassess so that maybe there's a fear-based also because, oh, I don't want to be exposed.
30:54But then, that's a start.
30:56That's a start in awareness also, but if you start seeing people who are being exposed, they end up reassessing themselves.
31:05And being in an energy of reassessing themselves, they will start self-reflecting.
31:10I think I should stop doing this.
31:12I think I should stop cheating my blah, blah, blah.
31:14Maybe I should stop corrupting my quirks.
31:18You know what I mean?
31:19So, I feel like that's one of the energies here in 2026.
31:23Like, I feel like 2026 is still a little bit shedding pa talaga.
31:28You know, shedding old beliefs, shedding old habits, bad habits, shedding old addictions.
31:36Maybe in the middle of 2026, that's when people start to move more openly, more freely, and more aligned with themselves after reassessing, reflecting their energies.
31:48Okay?
31:49So, four of cups here.
31:51I feel like this is the same as this.
31:52Look at this card.
31:55Look at this.
31:56So, it's just, I don't care.
31:58It's like an energy of, I don't care anymore.
32:02Like, I don't care about, yeah, I don't care about what the public will say.
32:08I'm just going to focus on my groundedness.
32:11I'm just going to focus on my solitude, on how I can self-reflect, right?
32:16How I can use these energies to, parang, for personal growth, for self-growth, self-development.
32:24Okay?
32:25Somehow, this card, four, these are two fours also.
32:31So, I feel like these, there are people who are going to be, ano talaga?
32:36Like, they won't share their energy.
32:38People will be more, ano talaga?
32:40Like, closed off.
32:41You know, like, if I'm not confident yet, if I'm not confident on sharing my gift, my abilities, I'm not going to share it.
32:51Like, I'm going to stay with myself and, you know, keep learning, keep reassessing, and keep, parang, focusing on my growth.
32:59Okay?
33:00Can I have a question?
33:01Yes, go.
33:02Sige.
33:02On that context, sige.
33:05Because that can be good, that can also be negative, you know?
33:08So, what's the negative side, behavior of this, and what's the positive choice for this particular card?
33:21Okay.
33:21So, the four of cups here, the negative behavior is more on dissatisfaction.
33:30Dissatisfaction, not being able to be grateful where you are in life.
33:34You know, everything is given to you here, if you see.
33:36Everything is handed to you, even.
33:40But you're like, um, no.
33:43You know what I mean?
33:43Like, I'm going to stick to what I have.
33:45No, I'm going to stick to what I have.
33:47And I'm convinced that this is good enough for me.
33:50You know?
33:50So, it's kind of negative, but I feel like in my, for me, that's kind of positive.
33:56Because taking what you need only is, sometimes it's enough, you know?
34:00Contentment.
34:01Contentment, exactly.
34:02So, I feel like your discontent, this card could be just a discontent in your surroundings.
34:08You know?
34:08So, I need to reassess.
34:09Do I need to go?
34:10Or can I stay?
34:11Should I stay?
34:12Should I go?
34:13You know, if I'm not happy here, should I go on?
34:15So, no.
34:16So, there's a start.
34:17It's already reassessing.
34:19So, this Four of Pentacles, I don't know the negative.
34:24I think being reserved with your energy is actually a positive side.
34:29But the negative side is maybe, I'm big on personal, I'm big on personal refinement.
34:42I'm big on personal strength, but I guess with the Four of Swords, he only has enough.
34:50That's why he's crippled.
34:52That's why he saves.
34:53That's why he needs the money for, or his resources for the future, right?
34:58So, I guess the positive side is just being distant to people, you know?
35:05Or just being, if it's not helping, it's not helping, because if it's not helping other
35:10people, you're just, I can't help.
35:14I'm sorry.
35:14Like, I'm just going to tell you, I can't help you for now.
35:18But then, if it comes, then I'll help you.
35:20You know?
35:20It's just, I feel like it's good to have that mindset.
35:23You know?
35:24Like, you don't have to be on all the time.
35:26Like, you don't have to be on.
35:29Does that make sense?
35:30Yeah.
35:31Can I?
35:31Yes, please.
35:32Because there's a similar, it happens quite a lot also to me, and with respect to people
35:39who wanted to help.
35:40And usually, it happens when I ask for directions, because they wanted to help, even if they did
35:45not know the answer, they will point me like it's there, instead of telling me that I don't
35:51know where it is.
35:53And personally, when I would go through that, I would have wanted that they just told me
35:57I didn't, I do not know where it is, rather than they point me to the direction.
36:02And, this is the wrong direction.
36:05Exactly.
36:07Right?
36:08So, yeah, there's also a space of saying, I cannot help, because I do not know where it
36:13is.
36:14Not yet, right?
36:15Because, but when I will find out, then I'll go back to you and tell you.
36:19But not for now.
36:20Yeah, exactly.
36:22Because also, the number four, the enumerology, is stability.
36:26I need to fix, I need to focus on my stability so I can give.
36:30So I can express more.
36:33So I can have a mindset of abundance.
36:36But since I don't have that yet, then I shall close my energy.
36:41I shall reassess myself first, fix myself first.
36:44Because we can only give what we have.
36:45Exactly.
36:46Yeah.
36:47So that's big on 2026.
36:48People will be less people-pleasing.
36:51Showy.
36:52Showy.
36:53Or, what else?
36:55Or, they will focus on community also.
36:58Okay?
36:58People will focus on community.
36:59And how they can help in a way that doesn't, parang, take so much from them, but only, you
37:07know, have what they have.
37:09Give what they have lang talaga.
37:11Okay?
37:12Ano pa?
37:13Ano pa?
37:14Questions?
37:16This one?
37:17Yes.
37:18This is another four.
37:20You see that?
37:21Okay.
37:22Yeah, so this is...
37:23Ah, sige, what's the number?
37:24So, the number four kasi, if there's repeating numbers, that's a big, that's a, that's a
37:29big, um, sign that four is a big number for 2026.
37:35Okay?
37:35If there are four, four, four lovers there, four is a really good number.
37:40Because four is about stability, harmony, um, growing, uh, what do you call this?
37:47Innovation.
37:48So, there is building.
37:50It's about building also.
37:52Okay?
37:52So, here, we have four fours.
37:55We have four of swords here also.
37:58So, this is spiritual security, spiritual stability.
38:03You know, how well do you know God?
38:05How well do you connect with God, um, in your life?
38:09Okay?
38:10So, I feel like...
38:12Okay.
38:14Sorry.
38:15I'm, ano, I'm getting messages.
38:16So, okay.
38:18So, the four of swords here, connected to the four of pentacles and four of cups, is really
38:24reassessing talaga.
38:25It's really going into your cave and just, what is my purpose in the world?
38:33What is the purpose?
38:34Not even in the world in general, but the world could mean your mom, your wife, your children.
38:41What is my purpose in my children's life?
38:42So, if you start reassessing that, you, you will actually think about things in a love-based
38:49perspective.
38:50You go out of just yourself.
38:52Yeah.
38:52So, in a way, like, here, the, the fours, the fours coming out here for 2026, I feel
39:00like 2026 is the beginning of true stability talaga.
39:05Okay?
39:05For everyone individually.
39:08Finding your true stability.
39:10Finding your true, um, anchor.
39:12What anchors you, you know, spiritually, mentally, and emotionally.
39:17Okay?
39:18So, I feel like that's different for everybody, you know?
39:21That's why if, you know, if you need a deeper reading, just let me know.
39:25But, anyways, yeah.
39:29So, yeah, do you want more?
39:31What else do you want to ask me?
39:33No, actually, yes, but, but I leave it to you also if you wish to, to, to, for more cards.
39:38But my question actually is, um, what mindset, and this is for our viewers, but what mindset
39:46is important?
39:47At least, but I know that you've covered that already, but at least, kind of, putting them
39:52all together.
39:52What mindset is essential for everyone in 2026 so that we would be able to successfully
40:02navigate the year?
40:04Mindset.
40:05Okay.
40:06Number one, self-trust.
40:08Okay?
40:09Self-trust and awareness, I think.
40:12Awareness is so important.
40:13I feel like if we are aware of ourselves, we regain our power of having to choose.
40:20Right?
40:20I feel like, I feel like other than social media, maybe, I guess, living on earth is, has
40:31always left us believe now we don't have a choice.
40:34You know, you don't have a choice to, ano ba?
40:37To follow our hearts.
40:39Okay?
40:40Okay?
40:40So, here, I feel like awareness is really important lang talaga.
40:44Okay?
40:45Self-trust, awareness, patience, and responsibility.
40:49Self-responsibility.
40:50Yun lang talaga.
40:51Um, for 2026.
40:55Okay?
40:56Having the mindset of, parang, if, like I said kanina, na if I cannot extend myself more,
41:05then I'll keep it to here, but I will always have good intentions, and if I can help, I
41:11can extend, you know, my hand to others, then I will.
41:14You know what I mean?
41:15Because I feel like to properly help others, and to properly have, like, an abundance kind
41:23of energy, like, you can give, if you have an abundance energy, for example, you have
41:28that.
41:28Like, you can give anything to anyone, like, in a way na, it doesn't mean material, you
41:34know?
41:34So, that's wisdom, that's kindness, that's compassion.
41:37So, having that mindset, you need to really, you know, like, be kind to yourself first, right?
41:43Be compassionate to yourself first.
41:45So, I feel like, yeah, awareness of yourself is the most important talaga.
41:50And being patient with yourself, self-responsibility, and self-trust.
41:54So, what about for our viewers who feel that they are stuck?
42:00Okay.
42:01So, how can they unstuck now?
42:03How can they move forward this year?
42:07Well, honestly, in my life, like, I have felt stagnant and stuck several times, many times,
42:15a thousand times probably.
42:16And I feel like, whenever I'm feeling lost and confused and stuck, it's such a, for me,
42:22it's such a potential ba?
42:24Grabe ang potential when you feel confused.
42:26Because now, you have the potential to learn more.
42:31Like, why am I stuck here in this area in my life?
42:34Wait, parang, parang I can, I can go this way na.
42:38Because the old, the old situation didn't work out anymore.
42:44Or the old relationship didn't work out anymore.
42:47Okay, so what can I do in my present moment that I can use to unstuck myself?
42:53You know, like, there's so much potential in being lost and confused, actually, for me.
42:57Because, like, now you're open to learning new things.
43:00Now you're open to understanding life in a different way.
43:04Like, giving life a new perspective.
43:05Giving your life a new perspective.
43:07Like, what if, for example, I'm stuck right now in my work, in my workplace.
43:12Okay, so now I can think of ways how I can, you know, connect to myself in another,
43:19what do you call this?
43:20In another parang area in life ba?
43:23Na maybe can help me unstuck myself.
43:25So I feel like the stuckness makes you make a choice.
43:30You know, so I feel like if the thing in the past doesn't work anymore,
43:35then that's such a great place to be.
43:39Because, like, if it doesn't work, then maybe that wasn't the path that you're supposed to be in.
43:44So now it's time to align yourself.
43:46It's time to reassess yourself.
43:48You know?
43:49Does that make sense?
43:49No, no, no.
43:50It's time to clarify your priorities.
43:52What are your real priorities?
43:54My lay version of that.
43:59That's why it makes sense to me.
44:01I've read from somewhere, so I'm not the original.
44:04But it's like the place that we are in is also like when we were back in school,
44:10grade one, grade two, grade three.
44:13So that means that in a particular chapter of my life,
44:17there are specific lessons there that prepares me for the next stage.
44:23And the reason why I'm stuck, it's because I don't learn those lessons.
44:29So I'm back to grade one.
44:30Yes.
44:31Oh, yeah.
44:32Until finally when I learn the lessons that I'm supposed to learn for this particular chapter,
44:39then I'm ready for the next.
44:40The grade two, yeah.
44:41No, grade two.
44:42So that's how I look at it, okay?
44:44That's how school was supposed to be.
44:48There are certain sets of lessons.
44:50So if I put an application on, if I read it correctly or receive it correctly,
44:55so if I put an application, so that means if, why am I figuratively,
45:00why am I always in grade one?
45:02What is it that I'm missing?
45:04Instead of being frustrated, like why am I always grade one?
45:08It's a point for me to, what is it that I'm missing that prepares me for grade two?
45:14So in life application then, that's why I would, I like when you said about being confused
45:21and being stuck is also a good space because that's also the best time to assess what is not working.
45:29What do I do differently?
45:32What lessons do I need to learn this time?
45:37Period.
45:37So that grade two is still there.
45:41Finally!
45:42Yeah, exactly.
45:43Exactly.
45:44You got that right.
45:45Wow.
45:45You're so amazing.
45:47You got it really good.
45:48Okay.
45:49Exactly.
45:50So, yeah, that's it.
45:51So for the viewers who feel stuck,
45:54just reassess.
45:54Like, there's, there's hope when you start to know that you can actually make a choice for yourself.
46:02Now you can actually heal yourself.
46:04You can actually learn the lessons now that's in front of you and you can react, respond differently.
46:11Diba?
46:12Okay.
46:12Okay, I would have wanted for us to continue and go on and on and on.
46:17But, but, but, but, but I think we...
46:20What?
46:21Are we still, you still want to continue?
46:22Yeah, no, no, no.
46:25No, are we done?
46:27Oh, okay, no, no, no, no, we can continue.
46:29Okay, if you have any more questions, yes.
46:31Okay, can pick one more?
46:33Or you want to continue?
46:36Okay, it depends on you.
46:37What time is it?
46:38No, no, okay.
46:40So that's really how open I am, no?
46:43When I enter into this conversation.
46:45So I just want to let it flow the way it is.
46:49So how about guiding message na lang?
46:52Sige.
46:52For everybody.
46:53Okay.
46:54For 2026.
46:55Okay, sige.
46:56I'll come.
46:57Yes.
47:01Oh, I love this card.
47:03We have the Ace of Cups.
47:05So this is for the guiding message now.
47:07Yes.
47:08So I love the Ace of Cups because it's an overflow of love.
47:14Okay.
47:15So love doesn't come true love, real love, not attachment.
47:21Love, not codependency.
47:22Real love comes from within you, right?
47:28It doesn't have to be validated by anybody else.
47:31It doesn't have to be reciprocated by anybody.
47:34It just comes within you and it overflows even.
47:37If you just recognize that the love is just within you, right?
47:41So Ace of Cups is just allowing love to overflow out of you.
47:47Okay.
47:47So the guiding message is allow new connections.
47:50Allow new relationships to emerge.
47:54Allow people to get to know you in a deeper sense.
47:58You know, it's safe.
48:00It's safe to be open.
48:01It's safe to be deeply you.
48:06It's safe to share your most deepest, most loving experiences with other people.
48:14I feel like that's how we begin to be in a love-based community.
48:19Love-based energy, right?
48:22So Ace of Cups, so 2026, new beginnings in love.
48:27New beginnings in friendships.
48:29So new beginnings in colleagues, maybe new work environments.
48:33So everybody will enter into something new this year, talaga.
48:36Every one of us.
48:37Okay.
48:38So it's just that you just have to be more open, more understanding, more compassionate.
48:43Have an overflow of love from within you.
48:46Okay.
48:46Without expecting anything in return, of course.
48:50That's key, no?
48:50Without expecting anything in return.
48:52Yeah, it's just you just use what's in front of you.
48:56And if it's not for them, okay.
49:00Okay, I'll shift my energy here.
49:02You know what I mean?
49:03So if it's really about shifting, adaptability, flexibility with life.
49:11Okay.
49:13Can I?
49:14Yes.
49:15No, no, no, because I think that's also crucial about the part earlier about being stuck also.
49:20Because maybe that's not where the person's energy is supposed to be.
49:25Yes.
49:26Or maybe that's not exactly an area that the person is adding value.
49:31And instead of being expecting things to be reciprocated in that area.
49:37Maybe the reason why they're not reciprocated.
49:40Because that's not also the value that they need.
49:42Yes.
49:43Okay.
49:43Perfect.
49:44That's so good.
49:45Okay.
49:45So exactly.
49:47So stick to what you are feeling like.
49:50Stick to what feels good to you.
49:52If this path doesn't feel good, of course there's challenges in moving forward in our path.
50:00Maybe career path, love life.
50:03But there's challenges which is normal.
50:05But if it doesn't feel good, it gives you anxiety, it stresses you out.
50:10Or in a way that it doesn't help you become a better person,
50:14then maybe it's time to reassess, shift, and adapt to something else.
50:18Right?
50:19Okay?
50:20So value is a big word.
50:22You know, it's so important to find people who value us.
50:26And who value our love, our overflow of love.
50:30Right?
50:31And this year, actually, we'll find people who actually value that.
50:35Because of the Ace of Cups.
50:37Yes!
50:37And I guess, hopefully, better leaders will emerge.
50:44The natural ones who don't have to be voted in.
50:48But the leaders who are light, who helps heal the community,
50:53those people will emerge this year.
50:55Yeah, so, like, me as a reader, maybe I will emerge more also.
51:02You know, because people who help people emotionally,
51:05to be emotionally straight, emotionally regulated.
51:09You know, to help people be more in a love-based energy.
51:13Okay, this year?
51:16There's just something that I remember with this.
51:18Yes.
51:18Okay lang.
51:19Okay, of course.
51:20Go.
51:21No, because earlier, you were also talking about brands,
51:23but brands can also be in the kind of people also that we meet.
51:28It's the value that I bring and the value that this also brings into my life.
51:38Not necessarily, I'm going to attach to this person because of other people's expectations
51:43or what this person will make other people think about me less on that.
51:49It's really like the value I bring and the value that this person brings.
51:53Yeah.
51:54And you will meet in the middle.
51:55Did I receive it correctly?
51:56Yes.
51:56You did.
51:57You did.
51:57Okay.
51:58Okay, more questions.
52:01No.
52:01No.
52:01Okay.
52:02But.
52:05No, I'll miss talking to you.
52:07Okay, we can have that offline.
52:10Okay, okay.
52:10But I also enjoy this conversation.
52:13So how will our viewers find you?
52:17If they also want to be, how to be you.

52:40I like making friends.
52:41So this has been such an insightful and enlightening session, Ellen.
52:48And thank you for sharing to us not just your expertise, but also the insights from Tarot that help us reflect on the year ahead.
53:00So today, we went beyond the headlines, not just looking at what 2026 might bring in the news or what's trending, but driving deeper into the patterns, choices, and reflection that shape our lives.
53:17In short, in short, value.
53:20Tarot shows us that the headlines don't define the year.
53:24Our mindset, actions, and awareness do.
53:27So that's the insight we hope everyone takes with them into 2026.
53:32See you tomorrow.
