Inflated self-importance
Over the next few days you may have to cope with someone's insufferable narcissism, someone temperamental, childish, and overbearing, someone with vastly inflated opinions of himself and his worth. Or you may encounter attitudes that are intolerant, boorish, self-righteous, narrow-minded, and willful. This can be a very aggravating situation ... because the source of it is so entrenched and arrogant. There's justifiable self-confidence ... and then there's pure unadulterated vanity -- and you're about to see an example of the latter. Notice how ... it ain't pretty.
An extra piece of advice:
This is a very toxic person ... and situation. Some of it can be the sheer haughtiness involved, and some can be that there is the possibility of "charisma" of sorts at work. Something has convinced this person -- or the ones who manage this situation -- that they are somehow superior and enviable, so it must be that people somewhere are impressed with facade and trappings. Don't make the mistake of being among them.

Our character is what we do when we think no one is looking.

Healing
In the next few days, you may find yourself dealing with loss, disappointment, grief, and sadness -- but in a positive, healing way. Almost certainly the issue you are processing is "old news," and the information you will receive is evidence that you are healing, stronger, and better able to manage your life now, less impeded by past injuries than has been the case for a while.
You may also go through a period of reassessment, examination, and reverie regarding a time of injury and loss, and in doing so discover the strengths you gained and the important things you learned from the experience. It may not yet be enough to convince you the original experience was "worth it" ... and, in fact, that may never happen. But this is one way you can find "meaning" in something dreadful. And knowing there was meaning to something does make it more bearable. What you are really seeking is more comfort ... and by looking for that, you're liable to find it.
An additional thought to ponder:
Just as times for physical recuperation vary, so do periods of emotional recovery. The mind and heart have their own wisdom and their own cycle of change in such an experience, and while you can support and encourage emotional restoration -- just as you can physical healing -- you would be wise to honor this simple, but often ignored, fact of life.
Depending on the severity of a deep loss or emotional trauma, it can take a minimum of two years to return to "normal." Sometimes it takes longer. Sometimes, of course, you will never be completely "normal" again. But telling yourself to just "get over it" and "forget" is as futile, cruel, and potentially crippling as telling your broken ankle to "get it together" and then walking on it anyway ... as if nothing ever happened.

In the hour of adversity be not without hope
For crystal rain falls from black clouds.

Today's Theme for Money and Practical Concerns
Struggling with self-identity
To lose your sense of identity, your certainty of who you are and what you are about can be a frightening, disorienting crisis. It may play out wholly within yourself ... or between you and some antagonist or difficult situation in the outside world, something (or someone) whose feedback causes you to question very fundamental things about yourself.
Appearing in this position, this card may indicate that your "worth" or "value" is called into question -- possibly in ways that have money, finances, investments, possessions, or other "things" as the props. You yourself may have to reinforce the notion that you are not "the amount of money you make" ... or "the things you own." That lesson may show up ... and find an unexpected weak spot in your self-image that you need to patch.
This shakiness and self-doubt can range from something as basic as questioning your competence -- causing problems with your no-longer-solid self-confidence to questioning your basic human worth and virtue leaving you paralyzed with indecision and a deep loss of personal courage. Both impede your ability to show who you really are ... and be true to your nature in your attitudes and responses.
Getting past this time and regaining solid ground can be a challenge ... and you may face such a moment before long.
Today's affirmation:
When given feedback about myself that severely contradicts my self-image, I have the patience and wisdom to step back, consider the information, and either make adjustments ... or "consider the source," whichever is appropriate.

Be yourself. The world worships the original.
