BTS OT7 2025/2026 Outlook Reading
Subject: BTS

Time: 6 hours
Notes
I was planning on this reading being the last one that I did, and it will still be the last one that I post, but due to some odd shenanigans, I was urged to do this one right after I had finished Yoongi’s readings. As I was originally following the order of the Soul Body, I kept thinking Jimin was next, that Jimin came after Yoongi when it should be Hoseok. It kept happening to the point where I got all the stuff pulled up to start going through Jimin’s old readings. I finally pulled back and was like, okay, what the heck am I meant to be doing right now because none of this feels right. I pulled some cards for myself, just to get more clarity, and it just kept coming at as, “all,” “seven,” “all,’ “seven” over and over again in the cards and in my head. This is the only group reading I had planned for the event, so here I am.
As I started this reading and was tapping into the scope of all seven of the members, as well as the Soul Body, a whole bunch of stuff started flying at me that showcased the blueprints of the new Soul Body or what it will look like after “The Big Bang” or the “revival period.” I was able to see that Namjoon was at the center, but none of the other positions were labeled or showcased where each member’s soul would be. I’m not sure if that’s purely because this was showing a blueprint that hasn’t technically been enacted yet, or if this has to do with the fact that they will be “orbiting around each other,” and therefore everyone’s position, except Namjoon’s, would be altering all the time.
For a refresh, I’ll share some of the past depictions of the Soul Body, which were taken from the Rap Line Triad reading from 2018:
And this is what I was shown for the new state of the Soul Body:
I kept asking questions like, what is this, how does this work, who’s sitting where, and the only thing that came through clearly was to think of it as an “etheric body.” If we think of the original Soul Body as mirroring the 7 main chakras that are tethered to the spine, we would have to imagine the overall form as a human body. Here, it’s suggesting that because they were moving around in such a fashion, they would be better observed as a spirit body or something that is not anchored to a physical form, again bringing the aspect of them “orbiting” each other without tethers and instead having some kind of magnetic force holding them together without allowing them to merge.
I think the reason I was guided to do this reading right after Yoongi’s is because he is implementing entirely new grids for his own soul, and there’s a big thing about him being the one to initiate the actual revival period, triggering the Soul Body to come back together. I think their Guides just wanted to establish this bit before I went any further with looking at the guys, most likely because they are all implementing new blueprints and grids into their systems based on this.
Added Note: As we’ve learned through the individual readings, most of them are sitting in some level of an incubated state and are receiving upgrades or new blueprints, but not all of them. For instance, Jin and Jungkook appear to be active and prepping systems for the revival, while Taehyung is sitting outside the system due to more personal issues within his soul.
Keep in mind, Namjoon and Yoongi’s souls are the closest in terms of looking at them as the Crown and the Third Eye — they are both technically the head, while everyone else has their own spot. Namjoon and Yoongi were the last to split away from the original soul when they all were one being or one stream of consciousness. Namjoon is holding a position currently where he’s just kind of in a stasis where his soul is building up energy and waiting to burst out, while Yoongi is actively being restructured in order to handle and project this burst to everyone else, including being quite a conduit for the collective as well.
Notes From April 2025
I started getting things for the group back in April, and at this point, I can’t really remember what I was doing or how a lot of this came through, but I’ve had it written down for quite a while and this seems like the best place to put it.
One of the big things that was coming through was a massive emphasis on concepts to do with the Dark Night of The Soul, the Saturn Return, and Saturn changing signs and initiating a new cycle this year before retrograding back into Pisces for a bit until 2026. I have it written down and highlighted, “rebirth, restructuring major systems of function,” which I would now assume is the Soul Body restructuring as well as the restructured blueprints of design of the souls with the revival period.
There was a really interesting thing that kept happening while I was taking these notes, something that had me deeply convinced at the time that the Dark Night of The Soul and Saturn Returns were going to be a concept for an album, and now that I’m reading these back, this does seem to connect to the Ace of Swords in the ARMY Outlook Reading that was said to be connected to “growing pains” and the reframing of perspective towards growing up and letting go of your childhood or your youth, affirming that this transition is not painful and you’re not supposed to cut chunks of yourself off in order to be a “real grown up.” You can still maintain your sense of wonder, ease, and playfulness, while still being an independent authority in your own life and dealing with all the stresses that come from being a living person on this planet.
The reason I was convinced that this was supposed to be an album was because I kept hearing two songs playing in my head over and over again, two songs that I know quite well, but the lyrics were changed just slightly to match this concept more. First I was hearing, Nights Like This by The Kid LAROI. The real lyrics are:
“Red wine kissin' in the house that your parents
Got for you, rented, how'd you forget it?
I think about you and nothin' else
So if you would just come over, I could show you for myself
And it's nights like this when I need your love
When I need someone that'll heal my soul
It's nights like this
Nights like, nights like this, ooh, ooh”
But I was hearing:
“Here I am missing a house, friends, parents
Fly, fall, running, hard to forget it
I can’t think about doing nothing else
But if you could just come over, I could show up for myself
And it’s nights like this when I need some love
When I need someone that will save my soul”
The other song I was hearing was Seoul City by Jennie, with just a small change from “I see your soul,” to “save our souls, Seoul City” in the chorus. There was an emphasis being put on SOS when I was hearing this, like someone actually calling out for help, asking the city itself to save their soul, to keep their soul intact. I was thinking of Namjoon with this, but now I’m not too sure. It could be all of them, but reading my notes back, I’ve since made a note that the SOS could have been connecting to Yoongi concerning his “battle ships” and “do you remember 9/11?”
In my notes, I have “SOS = suicide,” as I was starting to get these visuals of a person being on an old ship making their way from England to America way back in the day. The journey is isolating, rough, and unstable, literally can’t keep upright with the way the ship is swaying. I was seeing this young man freaking out, panicking over the fact that he couldn’t see any land from any direction, and it gave him the sense that they weren’t actually moving, that time wasn’t moving, and that he would be stuck there forever. Another man, an older man, told him to sit down, close his eyes, and think of the city, imagine his life in the city. By doing this, he was saving himself from potentially ending his life to escape the sense of dread and hopelessness that he was feeling.
I thought of Namjoon with this because he’s the one I connect the most to Seoul, the only one that I can think of that could be saved just by thinking about the city and his life there, but again, this could also connect to Yoongi as well, or maybe both, taking us back to Yoongi’s “lost family,” and “get help now!”
I’m not so sure anymore that this has to do with music or an album, but it does connect back to previous albums with “fly, fall, running, it’s hard to forget it” connecting back to HYYH part 1 and 2, which could suggest some kind of continuation or a throwback that could connect to concepts of the Dark Night of The Soul, or more Satunian influences to express the hardships they’ve been through since.
Lastly, in my notes from April, I have it marked for the Lunar Eclipse in Pisces on September 7th, which goes back to the ARMY Outlook Reading where there seems to be a lot of excitement in September and October. I also wrote down “Blood Moon, make a wish” and I just now looked that up and the Blood Moon occurred on March 13th of 2025, a Lunar Eclipse, which is followed up by the next Lunar Eclipse which is in September. I also have, “3 days - bold move” and “winter time surprise,” and I really can’t think of why I had that written down, but I’ll toss it in here anyway just in case it comes up again.
Guideline
With the guideline here, there is a pattern highlighting the restructuring and initiating something new through a process of innovative evolution rather than typical healing and return to the original function. Right at the very beginning, The River over The Faultline gives that image, the idea of The Faultline being a massive cut in the Earth, something that creates an impassable ravine that is too wide and too deep to cross. Rather than spending time trying to push the land back together, the massive crack in the ground is filled with water, creating a system of transport that is more fluid, more natural, and something that has the potential to create fertile ground in the area.
Once there is water flowing through The Faultine, once separate elements are brought back together — which mirrors the revival of both the Soul Body and the soul group — in a way where they do not have to be one whole structure, but rather multiple structures connected through an etheric system, there is a burst of energy with Delight, that then creates this sense of stillness through the next few sets — Blessed with Building Blocks, Meditation, and Innovation.
In all of these cards, the person in the center is very still while it feels that things are moving around them, things are building up, generating, and evolving around them in a state of stillness that seems to be pointing to a system of integration. The Faultline and The River are the revival, Delight is the frequency flux, and these cards are a slowed-down system of integration that starts high in the sky, rains down as Building Blocks, generates new energy within the bodies and minds through Meditation, and then physically and consciously takes root with a more tangible evolution of self through Innovation.
Following that, Saturn steps in with these energies that seem to reflect the same kind of system, but one that would be more collective. Hematite lines up with the flux, Zebra Marble is the system of evolution, and Petrified Wood is the integration. With Saturn here playing off of these earthly materials, it feels more solidified, as this is a more externalized system to mirror the internalized system shown in the previous set. This can show a progression happening alongside or within a collective experience or development with Saturn’s transit into Aries.
After that, 999 and Revision came out together in a way that feels very simple but there’s a kind of hidden complexity to this that I can’t put words to. In the simplest sense, 999 marks the end of something, or a solidification of something, while Revision is a matter of undoing something, removing parts, or backtracking on something to improve it for the way forward. This is most likely referring to the Soul Body, soul group, and the individual changes in the blueprints of each soul. Either way, 999 suggests something coming together while Revision suggests something coming undone.
From the Shadow Walker deck, they have Inflamed Ego with Lost, and Hallucinations and Jealousy in reverse, which gives us Day Dreams and Feeling Inspired from the Light Walker deck. Weirdly, these don’t really feel like things that are connected to BTS specifically, rather they feel like energies that are moving around them, potentially connected to other people. Together, these sets feel connected to the revival and exodus periods, separating things out to where those within the Soul Group who have been dealing with the more toxic elements of the fandom over the last few years will have Hallucinations and Jealousy, connecting to distortion and chaos in the fandom, flipped over and out, generating the Day Dreams and inspiration. This could go back to that wave of creativity hitting the fandom as well, which would suggest again the frequency flux and revival.
Lost and Inflamed Ego feels more connected to the people who are genuinely lost, as in they’re not supposed to be in this fandom or have any connection to the soul group. As the revival period runs through, the frequencies rise which, on a more conscious level, will look and feel like personal attacks against them, triggering insecurity and the urge to fight back, argue, or deny elements of reality such as them believing that the guys all hate each other and being flabbergasted when they see them together and see that they are happy together and want to work together still. Stupid shit, honestly, but this is where things could clash and reach a boiling point when it comes to actually showing people the problems at hand.
At the very end, there are these interesting levels of self-reflection presented with Dream Journal and With The Moon bringing to mind self-assessment, or analysis of the subconscious mind, looking back at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, which, again, could be something they are going through specifically, or this could be something that is occurring around them. The reversed King of Swords and the reversed Devil card follow this same pattern where a more logical or clinical lens is applied over top something deep in the subconscious, something negative that is being let go or cleared out. Then, finally, we have some level of creation or expression happening where I see the Queen handing off her cup in exchange for the Ace of Pentacles. This deeper reflection would be shared and the water in that Cup would bring us back around to the very beginning where The River was used to fill in the gaps of The Faultline, suggesting a broader process of healing that begins from the inside out.
The additional words at the bottom came out in an interesting way where they were grouped together on either end with two green cards, one green card in the very center, and then red and blue cards for Awake and Grief. At the very front, there is the combination of Learning and Lessons, which is then juxtaposed on the right side with Observing and Guided. This brings to mind their Guides and systems at play helping them along their progression. This also makes me think of Saturn observing an individual’s progression through the 8th and 9th Houses before entering the 10th.
In the very center of the layout is the word Children, which made me think of the aspect of development and essentially being reborn or reformed into something new, potentially experiencing a sense of reset or a rewind, not feeling as old as they are. This might go back to the “growing pains” thing in the ARMY Outlook Reading where they may be prompted to backtrack on the idea that youth is something you lose rather than something that can adapt and grow with you if you allow it to do so.
The highlighted words were Grief on the side of Learning and Lessons, and Awake on the side of Observing and Guided. Grief feels like a shutdown or a loss, while Awake feels like an activation and gaining something — lights off, lights on. With Children in the center, there’s a split feeling that feels connected to Loss and Inflamed Ego, and Day Dreams and Feeling Inspired. It’s like the children could go either way, falling into Grief of the lessons they’ve learned, of the time that has passed, or waking up to what they have been guided through, acknowledging what they know of their own experience, how they feel, rather than abiding by what they are “supposed to feel.”
Guideline With Sprinkles
The Sprinkles “sucker punch!” “accumulation,” and “Chiron,” connect The River and The Faultline to Delight, which is highlighted with “I’m okay now.” This feels to, again, be representing the initiation of the revival, elements of healing, and securing structures going forward, with a feeling of “returning to form” before evolving into something more.
“Having a party,” lays over Blessed and Building Blocks which elevates Delight into an energy that persists well into the revival and exodus periods where the people who are catching that frequency flux, the guys included, would feel quite happy and excited while others begin to sink and fall out of the community or lose interest. This fall is represented in “not moving” which casts the energy of Blessed and Building Blocks down into Inflamed Ego and Lost, representing mainly the sources of lower vibration and toxicity within the communities that surround BTS, which would include the fandom as well as personal connections and work connections most likely.
Over the Inflamed Ego and Lost cards is the Sowilo rune, which references the Sun, happiness, and higher energies. I see this as these heavier energies being held down or stripped away by the energy of Delight, by the energy of the higher frequencies that are moving through these systems at this time. As the higher aspects begin to move, the lower aspects will be unable to keep up, unable to move as high or as quickly, which will give that exodus experience of people either being intentionally pushed out or leaving on their own as they do not feel connected to the falsified version of BTS that they created over the last few years.
Over the Meditation card is “perfect time and perfect way,” which really gives that feeling of ease and release of control. There’s a feeling there of having fallen back into a more trusting position on their part where things have been reaffirmed for them and they can fall back into a flow that they are familiar with. The Meditation card then connects over to Innovation with “give me a chance, I’m communicating here,” and “some light painting.” This feels like a reference to their work as a group, something they are constructing or have been constructing with a clear and visible message, but one that, through the light painting, may be cryptic or “left up to interpretation,” a kind of coded language for people to chew on.
Essentially, they’re getting back into a groove where their work is very meaningful and intended for a mass audience, a general audience with deep introspection or a critical eye towards the world that will be delivered vaguely to ensure people ponder and connect personally.
Following that, “it’s alive!” lays over the Saturn card which felt to be reflecting the reforming of the Soul Body, as at this point in the progression, following the release of their first album back as a group, the Soul Body would reconnect and begin “humming” or pulsing outward. BUT! There is then the “maybe…idk” Sprinkle that connects the Saturn card over to the progression of the three crystals, which then have their own Sprinkles with “hold out and heal,” and “enjoy the success that you have.” That feels reminiscent of the period of rest their Guides want them to have to go into 2026, with a slight shrug over the idea that this could happen, it could not happen. It could turn out great, or it can just stay as it is. There’s only so much we can do. Either way, enjoy what you have and keep it moving.
Then, down at the bottom, the area of the 999 and Revision cards is blocked off by the black Sprinkle, indicating lower energies, systems of “The Black Pond,” and the word “interrogation” at the bottom. This also sits right over the Learning and Lessons keywords, really emphasizing the idea of a dissection of energy and the overall web of energy. This is where things feel a bit more hands-on, a bit more like there is secondary help stepping in to clear the space. Something there to assess every element, interrogate every influence within the Soul Body and the soul group to see who is supposed to be there and who is just hanging on and dragging others down.
Added Note: This resonates quite a bit now with Jimin’s new function in the Soul Body, as it was demonstrated in his Elemental Alignment Reading, acting as a filter or security system for the body and the soul group.
With Vesta hanging over the 999 and Revision card, there is this feeling of cleansing Fire being projected through the energy web, similar to the idea of the Sun or high-frequency energy being pushed through, and on some level, just blowing out all lower vibrations. Not in a way where anyone is ripped apart, but certainly in a way that is undeniable and forceful, they won’t be able to hang on.
Next, the Jealousy and Hallucinations cards, both in reverse giving us the Feeling Inspired and Day Dreams cards, have two Sprinkles that connect them over to Dream Journal and With The Moon that say, “simple request,” and “something odd.” This feels very straightforward as being a prompt that would have people, possibly the members and the soul group, assess themselves or look over things that have fallen out of place, things that aren’t fitting right, and ask themselves why it doesn’t fit right, why does it feel off. This would be a more conscious-level version of the interrogation.
Then, Dream Journal specifically connects over to the King of Swords in reverse through the “Cats + Ghosts” Sprinkle, which references superstitions and things that some people can say “look out of place” anywhere, but are quite normal and natural in most environments. In other words, it’s referencing again things that don’t look right or seem odd and off-center, except “Cats + Ghosts” specifically refers to the idea of recognizing that something does belong there even if others say that it shouldn’t. There could be quite a transitionary phase on a conscious level where things are moved around and done a bit differently to feel more comfortable or in flow with everything, thus creating a kind of mix-match of energies for a while that may need to be sorted through very deliberately, similar to what is described in the exodus period in the ARMY Outlook reading where some separations and fallouts just occur on their own while some need to be very intentionally initiated to clean house.
Then we have “hold on a second,” and “I’m gonna walk there…” connecting the King of Swords and The Devil over to the Queen of Cups and the Ace of Pentacles. It’s a request for time and patience with this as things come to settle, again bringing to mind their Guides saying they want them to have time to relax and settle back into things to avoid any overload or confusion as these new systems take shape.
Finally, down below, there are three Sprinkles over three of the keywords. In the very center, “not meant to be,” lays over the word Children. Then on the left, “mountains of sand,” lay over the word Grief, and on the right, “feel a spark,” is with the word Awake.
“Feel a spark,” takes me back to Vesta as this energy has a lot to do with passion and personal enlightenment or acceleration. This can also connect back to Delight and the element of revival as things wake back up, the system begins to reboot itself. “Mountains of sand,” over Grief made me think of ruins, or entire pyramids being buried under hundreds of feet of sand, entire histories lost in such a way waiting to be rediscovered. As this leans over into Lessons and Learning, it feels like there’s a recognition here of a lot of BTS’ past having been forgotten or remaining unknown or even rewritten and falsified within the fandom or the public. There’s grief felt for lessons that could have been learned by the collective, by the fans, especially new ones, along with a feeling of not being able to connect with those experiences themselves, perhaps feeling a bit distant from those times now.
The center part with “not meant to be,” feels like a highlighted focus on elements of authority and liberation within all of this, standing between Grief and Awake, almost like they’re waiting for someone else to tell them which way to lean, into the new or into the old. Where is the balance? Is there a balance?
There’s an interesting visual playing in my mind where someone is searching through the desert for lost pyramids and by allowing the Sun to guide the way, they manage to catch a glimpse of glittering gold in the distance, which ends up being the very top of a pyramid peaking through the sand. If they had given up with the idea of history being buried for good and leaned into Grief, they never would have found it, but as they move with the Sun they make that discovery, and an element of history is revived. The significant thing here is the determination of the individual to persist with their initial mission rather than allowing something, or someone, outside of themselves to dictate what they do and how they see it. They are not meant to operate like children, bending over backward to please people of authority or other immature people who think they have any say over what they do or don’t do.
They are adults who have earned a thousand times the right to dictate themselves and navigate freely alongside each other and as a group.
Overall Energy for June 11, 2025 — June 13, 2026
The beginning here, starting with The Castle, feels like a time of restructuring, building, or rebuilding The Castle back into something that would fit alongside The Emperor and the 10 of Pentacles. However, Concentration over the top feels like there is an immediate pushback or a kind of battle that occurs between the offensive swords in Concentration and the defensive sword in the Knight of Swords. It’s like they come out swinging, there’s a lot of talking in the beginning, a lot of reestablishing, and reclaiming of power, but there is resistance to it which can come from the general public, the industry, or issues with fans and newer fans who do not appreciate them being together as a group.
The 7 of Cups moving into the 10 of Wands, taking us into the mid-section designated by The Thread and Organization, is a big upswing in work. The entirety of the center section is about work, building things, weaving things together, and reestablishing themselves in the spotlight properly. With the reversed Ace of Pentacles, this could imply that this is more behind-the-scenes work, preparation for something else, especially with the Knight of Wands leading us into the last section, but this could also just be pointing out alongside Strength that they aren’t JUST doing an album, or group activities there’s a lot more going on at this time.
Moving into the last section, the 7 of Swords sneaks away from the Knight of Wands, which represents the guys on their mission, doing their work, really attacking all that is on their plates at this time. The 7 of Swords has come to represent the issue that was shown to occur in November and December in the ARMY Outlook Reading, but as it is reversed here, there is a sense of the Knight managing to defeat this energy and turning it on its head. However, there is a stillness that takes over in that last section with The Mentor under Manipulation with The Hermit and the Ace of Swords. There’s a lot of talking, a lot of confusion, but The Mentor and the Knight of Wands’ remaining energy bleeding out into this space feels to be a battle already won.
The Hermit continues with that stillness of energy, and this could imply more solo activities, but there’s a kind of forced isolation here which could just refer to a media silence. The guys aren’t talking about what’s going on but rumors or other talking points are coming up in the media.
The Aces there, the Ace of Wands especially, suggest something completely new in thought and action kicking off after what feels to be a final cleanse within the beginning to middle of 2026, but it’s not very clear at all what that would be or pertain to. The only thing that is clear in the last set is this aspect of the mind becoming clear and things slowing down quite a bit before picking up again. Most of the energy and movement occurs in the center section which would be through the end of 2025 and the beginning of 2026.
Overall Energy Second Half of 2025
Focusing mainly on the second half of 2025, we start the section with The Fool, implying a new beginning that leads us into the main energy of The Vow. The Vow already stood in place as representing the revival of the group, the soul body, the soul group, and the overall community of ARMY. The Vow represents the reunion and promises kept about coming back together. With The Fool, there is an acknowledgment here around the idea of this being the beginning of something completely brand new, something that needs to be considered differently on multiple levels.
Then we have Co-Create and Peace coming out together, which is a combination that came out in Yoongi’s Elemental Alignment. Here, this represents a higher aspect where the Soul Body is remerging alongside the soul group, which is mirrored in a more conscious and physical space with The Magician, The Sun, and the 6 of Wands. There is an incredible feeling to these sets coming off of The Vow, especially with the slight nervousness or anticipation I can feel in The Fool. It’s celebration and praise alongside a lot of joy and a feeling of wishes coming true. Again, I don’t know if it’s mainly the fans or if it’s just the guys, but with The Vow and how it has come up here and in the ARMY Outlook Reading, both feel like there’s an element of surprise, like both sides are shocked to some degree that the other is still there.
The 6 of Wands and The Sun also imply that this aspect of celebration and praise goes beyond ARMY, it could quite literally be the entire world celebrating their reunion, generating quite high energies with The Magician and The Sun. There’s a ripple effect of high-frequency energies there.
Then, moving over to the center set, The Riddle, coming off of The Vow, shows a sudden drop in things where, mainly, there is just this kind of confusing space that feels a lot like the exodus period. There’s a lot of celebration and excitement, and then suddenly it falls off and there’s a lot of confusion where things are trying to take form and there are people trying to grab it and pull it apart before it can.
The Riddle, especially with the hands creeping in from the darkness on the slides, feels a lot like The Medalion and how it was representing the soul group alongside the Soul Body, or ARMY alongside BTS rising again while lower energies and people who were acting as a source of negativity and toxicity essentially get shaken out of the system.
The Riddle sort of stands alone as well, there’s a more isolated and separated feeling to it that doesn’t really connect very well to either side. It’s a period of turmoil. If this is exclusively focusing on BTS, this could be the guys being aware of or observing the exodus period in their fandom, or being aware of the chaos within it to the point where they’re kind of like, “uhhhh… what the fuck is going on? Are we in trouble??” But this does pass and the energies rise back up again with the Exchanging Gifts and the 10 of Cups.
That transitionary section really does feel like a cure to the shadows and tension within The Riddle, as the higher element of Exchanging Gifts feels like mutual support being traded between the Soul Body and the soul group, creating the 10 of Cups on a more conscious level, which implies a sense of inner fulfillment and emotional satisfaction. Things may be quite chaotic or unsettled at the time, but the ARMYs that intentionally and consistently generate positivity and work to undo the ties to negative influences in the fandom and the negative influences that move toward BTS will be part of that exchange. Give good, get good.
This then takes us into The One, which feels like a point in which all that is trying to come together in The Riddle solidifies into one, mainly referring to the Soul Body and the reunification of the soul group, which would mirror a more solidified or settled system for BTS and ARMYs as we close out the year. However, this is then followed up by the reversed Queen of Wands, which feels a little like personal authority and free will falling off suddenly, which feels a bit like direct resistance or an intentional effort to stunt or silence the group. This could very well connect back to the issue that was shown in November and December in the ARMY Outlook Reading, but it sits here as being more like a temporary nap taken out of obligation. There could be a pullback from the public, as in BTS being quiet about something, or there could be a very open and obvious display of this issue where it becomes obvious that BTS have their hands tied with something.
Overall Energy For the First Half of 2026
Going into 2026, I was surprised to see that it’s less mysterious and undefined as what was shown in the ARMY Outlook, but looking closer there is a lot of upset and redirection occurring through communication and decision-making. Right away, with the 2 of Wands and the 8 of Cups, there is a conflict of internal and exernal, or ideas that they may have for themselves as individuals or as a group clashing with plans that are set for them, long-term and short-term.
This then extends into The Sword, where it almost feels like one of those spinner things that come in board games, the ones that you spin to see how many moves you can make or what cards you’re supposed to pick. Something in it feels random, you don’t know which way the sword is going to point. In that sense, there is a lack of definition or clarity, but it is not coming up as shapeless as it was in the ARMY Outlook, probably because we’re looking at their points of decision-making rather than how we as an audience would experience this after the fact.
Then, we have the Nine of Swords under the higher aspect of The Observer in reverse. This implies some issues behind the scenes, things that can’t be seen on either end, higher or lower, that are creating quite a bit of mental turmoil or disagreement. It’s intentionally hidden as well, stemming from the 8 of Cups where there is recognition of some kind of inner upset that is externalized and openly discussed behind closed doors with the Nine of Swords.
This then gives way to The Creator, which could imply some of the issues about how they work together as a group now that everyone has an established standing as solo artists, or maybe it’s reverberating off of ARMY in some way, being more aware of the disapproval of certain people who don’t want the group to be together. This could also be a matter of the public and media. Either way, in this time of silence or behind-the-scenes matters occurring, there is fuel being generated for The Creator which seems to be lining up with their own creative burst. I don’t know if this would specifically refer to the beginning of creating a new album or body of work, or if this is the release of it with more power behind it because of the issue faced previously. It stands out quite a bit and holds a lot of its own energy.
This then goes into Milk And Honey and The Empress where things cool down quite a bit and a certain level of ease takes over. There’s enough of a foundation created over the turmoil with The Creator that there is peace, comfort, and a splash of luxury experienced here. It doesn’t quite register as a nap or a break from things, but it’s certainly a refreshing point where the recognition of abundance, luxury, and the ability to soothe the self is prominent.
Then, we have this build-up into The Faultine, which then goes into the Queen of Cups. Again, this feels like an outside effort to mess things up, as in they find their way to new solid ground with The Empress and Milk and Honey, but then someone or something comes along and creates an earthquake that attempts to topple all of this down. With the Queen of Cups, it feels like this is a successful attempt as all structure is taken away, but they are left with a level of emotional and personal resilience, a readiness to assess the matter at hand and build from the ground up again.
Timeline: July to December 2025
Starting off in July, there is a bit of stress applied over 4 of Wands and the Ace of Swords, which, again, could just be coming from people who don’t want to support the group in general creating a difficult way forward or something that they have to mentally and emotionally overcome. It’s something implied to be familiar to them though, this kind of pushback, disapproval, and even efforts to sabotage as they are prompted with the question, “how did you figure it out last time?”
The 4 of Wands is a doorway that feels like they step out completely together, a basis of reunion, but mainly focused on the seven of them, not ARMY or the public. The Ace of Swords stands as a new mentality, plan forward, and something that makes it feel like they are perceiving this as a new debut. The pushback and effort toward sabotage or industry disapproval may be what is familiar to them along with the awkwardness of trying to establish themselves into roles that don’t fit them anymore and trying to settle a new system.
There’s not really any conflict here, there’s just a sense of confusion and a hard time finding the right footing, but it is represented with a black Sprinkle, implying influence from The Black Pond, or the lower influences, efforts of distortion. But again, it’s something that would be familiar to them, something they would know how to navigate through a lot better and faster than they did before.
Then, in August, there is some mix-matched energies going on here with the 7 of Swords showing up again in reverse, under The Fool and over the 2 of Pentacles. As I’m seeing this, there 7 of Swords attempts to remove cogs from the machine in the 2 of Pentacles, attempts to throw something off, but The Fool inherently prevails, and there’s a feeling left behind of, “oh… I didn’t know they could do that.” There’s a shock to the fact that The Fool could persist and begin something new without machines behind him, giving me the idea of the industry or media attempting to sabotage BTS in more industrial-type ways that end up not really having an effect on them as BTS is kinda… in their own lane? On their own level? Not reliant on typical systems of marketing and advertising? Something like that.
At the very top of this set, they have “using different decks,” and “poetry life beats like,” which is a counter to the Sprinkle that says, “life beats like poetry.” It implies that something is not fitting in place or that something very out of the ordinary is occurring, but as this stands alongside “using different decks,” it comes off more like the other people, the 7 of Swords, are not lining up with BTS, they haven’t figured BTS out enough to be able to actually enter their space or really know their weak spots. They’re trying to win a game that BTS is playing, but they show up with the wrong playing cards and a set of rules that doesn’t apply to them.
Down below, there is “I’m not mad at you,” and “dreams,” which feels more in line with The Fool where there’s a bit of a “forgive and forget — emphasis on the forget” kind of vibe as The Fool simply strolls past that matter and continues on. It really feels like walking right over the 7 of Swords who was laid out in an attempt to trip The Fool who looks down with a smile, and says, “I see what you’re doing, but I actually have things going on so I don’t have time to mess with you, bye.”
In September, there HAS to be something going on at this time because between what’s in the ARMY Outlook and what is here, there is something on display, something of a matter of inspiration that is being well-received by ARMYs and perhaps the general public as well. There’s something contemplative with the Page of Cups there, something that feels quite separated from the 6 of Wands where it’s almost like ARMYs and BTS are both observing something, but ARMY is more excited about it while BTS, in general, are reassessing something or self-reflecting through something. If it has anything to do with HYYH, then it’s possible that ARMYs are quite excited about the revisiting, but BTS themselves may have a bit of a conflicting feeling as they acknowledge more personal feelings of their own and assess the last ten years of their lives and career, as well as the prospect of getting older and what the future holds for them.
The Sprinkle over this set just says, “survive this.” This makes me think that there is something quite emotionally or mentally shaky in this that we won’t see in them unless they express it outright.
In October, that feeling comes through again, the big wave of creativity and inspiration, lining up much more with what ARMYs had in October, with the Ace of Cups and The Magician. Over this set, they have, “way, way too much!” and “perfect!” It’s something big, something very noticeable and exciting, something that would overwhelm some people, but they’re being encouraged to do just that. There does feel to be a certain kind of deliverance there as the Page of Cups develops something in his contemplation and then BOOM, it’s put out into the world as the Ace of Cups there which seems to empower or light up The Magician.
But then, just as we saw in the ARMY Outlook, there is some kind of issue showing up in November and December. For BTS, this is way more established in Fire rather than Air, action rather than communication. For ARMYs, it was a lot more centered around Swords, or communication, things in the media, but for BTS it’s very direct and face-to-face.
First, in November, they have the Knight of Wands, their own mission, being disrupted and laid over by the 5 of Wands, which can imply an “attack” on multiple levels — conscious and physical, but also higher energetic levels as well. At the very top of this set, there are two Sprinkles that come together to say, “It could happen! Not like that! Like this!” which brings our attention down to the 5 of Wands. This seemed like a note on observation, as in, this will not start in the media as implied in the ARMY Outlook, but instead, be connected to something very direct that will take up a lot of their attention and affect their plans that are in motion at this point. This makes me think it would be a lot more severe than what is actually known to the public, if anything is known at all. Either way, a deliberate attack and an attempt to throw something off is very clear here.
The Sprinkle, “silly times,” lays over the 5 of Wands on its own, again giving that feeling of it being a bad attempt. The note of “Pisces” there also implies that this is something hidden or something that seemingly comes out of nowhere. It has an effect, but it’s not something that can or will last very long. It’s an extension of the reversed 7 of Swords, perhaps a continuation of it where someone’s plans fall through but they act on it in a bigger way with more people in November/December.
This then continues down into other Sprinkles that say, “tea for two,” “I am following the flow,” “trust yourself,” and “truth of thought.” This feels like a rapid-fire of warnings or guidelines for things coming out and around at this time. It’s hard to explain it exactly but “tea for two,” implies gossip, but not big gossip, not media-level gossip, unless they’re reporting on personal matters between two people. “I am following the flow,” coming after “tea for two,” implies someone keeping up with the gossip, keeping track of the development of the issue, and potentially keeping up with the media if it is involved. “Trust yourself,” and “truth of thought,” is a call to use your better judgment, to keep your head above water, to not be taken over by what is being said or done at this time. This could go for both BTS and ARMYs.
There is another Sprinkle that says, “it’s in the cards,” which leads us over into December with the King of Wands and the King of Swords. This feels like a direct confrontation as the Knight of Wands, which represented BTS being on the move becomes the King of Wands who directly faces off with the King of Swords, which feels like a “bigger” version of the 7 of Swords. The black Sprinkle there was laid out perfectly over the King’s face, which makes it feel like a person who was attempting to hide their identity, their motives, or even someone who could be protected and hidden by the media. Or maybe we’re just not supposed to know who this person is, but either way, there is distortion to this person’s identity which stands out quite a bit against what is implied to be BTS’ fully illuminated and well-represented identity in the King of Wands.
Timeline: January to June 2026
There is an odd feeling to the first few months of 2026, and this may be because of the “undefined” energy present as well as the issues carrying over from the end of 2025, which the public may find easy to forget about but BTS themselves would still be dealing with it potentially. Within the first three months, there are Swords present that feel quiet, cold, heavy, and slowed down, like there’s a kind of depression or lethargy falling over everything. In January, the 6 of Wands came out reversed, showing either a wave of disapproval or a disconnect from the audience or public. The 2 of Pentacles and the 8 of Swords gives this feeling of attempting to blindly settle something and blindly find stability again. There’s a lingering chaos here that has quieted down, but has not lost its weight.
Over these cards are “Chiron,” and “went early.” The red of “went early,” and it being laid out before the set, makes it feel like a “red alert” situation, like something is wrong here, meaning something, on a higher level, is anticipated to be wrong, but through Chiron there are higher efforts to heal or support this matter. In general, the “went early” Sprinkle is supposed to imply an early death, specifically in the realms of suicide, someone choosing to “go early,” which feels like a system breakdown here. Something that cuts off the 6 of Wands, throws the 2 of Pentacles off balance, and ties up with the 8 of Swords, making the whole matter for them difficult to understand or navigate.
Going into February, this confusion continues with the Page of Swords and The Moon. The Page implies an effort to start something fresh, or simply “reset the system,” but The Moon feels overpowering, like there’s a heavy emotion lingering in the air that makes it hard for the Page to focus. Even the Sprinkles on the set, the way they float around the images, feel very unfocused and confused.
At the top, the Sprinkles start with, “I am following the flow,” which feels like a very spacy sense of just kind of taking whatever comes your way, being at the mercy of the tides that The Moon is pulling. Then, it moves down into, “breathe now,” which feels like the space of breath or clarity one might get when they manage to pop their head above the surface of the water while being swept up in the waves. This then drops into the number “3” which I see connecting back to the 3rd House, aspects of communication, and very basic structures of planning and strategy. Again, there feels to be an effort to get things moving in the right way again, but there’s just something off in the energy and in the emotional space here that’s quite heavy and foggy.
On the actual card, there is “daytime heat,” laying straight over the Page’s eyes, which felt a lot like someone being blinded by the sun. On all ends, in general, we have the Page fogged out on emotions, swept up in the circumstances, and now blinded by the sun, which could, alongside the idea of the heat or being under pressure, refer to media scrutiny or overanalysis and speculation. This is then followed by, “before we saw…” which is a Sprinkle that should have something else connected to it to make a full sentence, but it was sat on its own disconnected from the others, further emphasizing that element of blindness, confusion, and an inability to navigate the situation well.
Toward the bottom, there is a collection of Sprinkles that feel to be directly connected to their Guides as the “we request permission,” is meant to be a call from Guides or Spirit Guides for approval on interference which is shown to be based on matters of an “assignment” which would refer to a mission or purpose work, that they want to stabilize. The “slowly, but surely,” feels like an aim to correct something, slowly but surely get things back around to where they need to be.
In March, the confusion continues, but it’s laid out in such a way that it feels like all systems are engaged — The High Priestess is the higher unconscious, the 3 of Swords is the subconscious, and the conscious mind is shown with The World. This shows collective engagement, not individuals. The status of the individuals is shown with the reversed Knight of Pentacles, which implies a complete shutdown or halting in action, things have physically stopped moving. If this is interference, the halting would have been for the sake of getting them to reconnect with themselves in order to reset on multiple levels. This could also be due to some kind of development with the prior issues, but it’s really not clear what is going on here.
“Let’s get rich!” is shown toward the bottom of the set, while “an even challenge” is presented toward the top. It’s showing a difference in focus, direction, and goal, but as the “let’s get rich!” lays over the unmoving Knight and The World, this could imply conflict around money or a conflict in intention with their work. It’s best to recognize that the “let’s get rich!” is in quotations, it’s coming from the outside, it’s someone else’s idea for them that is sitting heavily on them as the Knight of Pentacles.
It feels a lot like there is integrity on the line, something where they are being prompted to do something for money that they don’t want to do, and there’s something very odd about it. It feels like one of those things where if you say no to one thing, you inherently say no to everything, and all of what you have is taken away — they feel stuck in this. This conflict is further emphasized with “Honesty + Reflection” and “Glowing + Shining.”
In April, there is just a bit of an upswing for them where we have the Page of Cups in reverse under The Moon, carrying a similar energy to what they had in February, which lays under the Page of Pentacles and the 10 of Swords. There is a very harsh resilience to the Page of Pentacles and the 10 of Wands, there is a very hot and dry sort of, “forget the feelings, forget the thoughts, just keep moving,” thought process here. It feels desperate in a way, as if there is an urge to get as far away as possible from The Moon, as far away as possible from the heavy emotions, fog, deception, and confusion.
Over this set, there is “uncomplicated,” and “a child smiles,” which then leads into “family gathering,” which lies over the 10 of Wands as he makes his way toward the set in May. It’s a group effort to return to something simpler, something that feels good and safe for them, but as I said, there’s a sense of desperation to regain some kind of control, stability, and what they could call normalcy or familiarity within how they operate together.
In May, there’s an intentional shutdown of communication as the King of Swords is reversed under the Knight of Cups with the Sprinkle overhead that says, “no one needs to know.” There’s a silence to this set that feels very deliberate, but expresses a lot more stability as the Knight specifically is showing emotional containment and protection, as well as a “return to the mission.”
Through the Knight of Cups, they make it into June where the energy is much calmer and more relaxed, however, there is a connection running back to February where a request for permission to interfere is laid out. The overload of Sprinkles here seems to be representing the potentially necessary levels of interference, particularly a highlight to “enjoy energy,” and “inverted energy.”
BTS are shown to be the 7 of Pentacles on a conscious and physical level, with the emotional subconscious level fueled by the Ace of Cups, showing new and revived lines of inspiration. This falls over what is shown to be a higher foundational position of The Emperor, representing their authority, self-navigation, and a renewed commitment to their own vision and movement forward.
“A real peaceful environment,” and “deep thoughts” connect directly to the 7 of Pentacles, again giving a much deeper sense of stability, calmness, and openness to actually do their work without any additional stressors or worries. Connecting to the subconscious and higher unconscious levels, the interference is laid out with “enjoy energy,” “inverted energy,” and “that’s how it goes (sorry for the trouble,)” which comes together as, “enjoy this inverted energy, sorry for all the trouble, this is the only way/time we could do it.”
This then continues on with an interesting opening to the subconscious space, which feels to be connected to one specific person, but it’s unclear who it is, although I have my suspicions. “Are you happy here?” followed by “I’m fine.” which is in a bright green. This is then followed by the three Sprinkles that say, “part of our job,” “quietly observe,” and “a green man.” This comes together, referencing the green Sprinkle “I’m fine,” as “it’s part of our job to observe and look after the green man.” Just on my assumptions, I’m assuming Yoongi is the “green man,” the one being looked after as he seems to be experiencing the most restructuring individual and will also be functioning as a conduit of extremely high-frequency energy which can disrupt him mentally and physically.
Added Note: The “green man” could also be Taehyung considering his current issues on a higher level. “A green man” also refers to a man made of Earth energy, which could be reflecting Taehyung’s Capricorn energy.
Lastly, the final two Sprinkles over this set are “this was a…” and “screaming thunder.” A continuation of the influence of their Guides, acknowledging that this was a bit of a shit show, a bit of an emergency situation, a lot alarms were going off and this issue would have been quite heavy for the guys.
Namjoon’s Outlook
Namjoon’s outlook for the next year is very interesting as The Animal in the center seems to bring the idea of weaving opposing forms together, creating a new sense of self, reidentifying to some degree. Essentially, he’s weaving a new form for himself, which lines up with the higher aspects creating a new form, but with The Animal, it is inferred to be very physical and conscious. This could be something as simple as changing up his clothes or it could be more mental, emotional, or spiritual in the way he expresses himself or identifies publicly.
The opposition presented here is, on a surface level, between The Emperor and The Devil, two ruling forces that seem to represent his own personal authority under his Ego. The Emperor represents a higher Ego while The Devil represents a lower one. The Emperor pushes out and over opposition while The Devil is at risk of submitting to it, submitting to insecurity, fear, and social rule. The Devil’s side is connected to Criticism, Chaos and Conflict as well as Belief, specifically connected to social or religious belief.
The Emperor is connected to Status, Message In A Bottle, and Discernment, all of which connect more to his personal experience, opinions, beliefs, and recognition of his own status or position. He’s, I think, attempting to bridge gaps between these elements in order to “make peace” with what he feels opposes him. This is very in line with some of what came out in his Elemental Alignment and Saturn’s Trial readings.
Yoongi’s Outlook
For Yoongi, with The River at the center, there’s a softening to his overall energy, which I think coincides with the expansion of his capacity as well as the general “smoothing” of the bridges between his layers of consciousness, which would go along with that conduit work. He, essentially, would be becoming The River, this continuous space of flow. This then stems out of him in two ways, one that is more conscious and personal, and the other more unconscious and collective.
The personal side connects to the 6 of Pentacles, Eccentricity, Unfinished Symphony, and Coherence. There is a desire to give some of his own energy, his own words to the public through means that are slightly different than before or in ways that go against the norm. As it connects to Unfinished Symphony, he’s either continuing a story that’s already begun being told, or there is an effort to close something out to designate a new chapter.
The collective side moves through Justice, Status, Come To The Edge, and Synergy. There are elements of inspiration running through Status and Come To The Edge, standing as an example of sorts, or presenting himself (not deliberately most likely) as something to aim for or follow. This is not a matter of being mimicked though, as Justice and Synergy wrap these up in a “there’s room for everyone,” kind of vibe — essentially, encouraging you to fight like him, strive like him, grow like him, but don’t trick yourself into thinking that if you copy everything he does you’ll end up exactly where he is. Support your own system and path the way he supports his own.
Hoseok’s Outlook
There is a very interesting back-and-forth here for Hoseok between both sides of the layout which, as I’m seeing it, is literally stimulating The Flame in the center, literally creating friction as the cards bounce off of each other. First, the 3 of Pentacles on the left shows collaboration and a kind of dull-grey space that reminds me of the Raccoon in his Elemental Alignment reading. This bounces off of the 9 of Cups where the vibrant energy matches up more with his “solo energy,” the more self-focused and self-directed energy. There is an inherent balance shown to be created, however, with Originality, that solo Hoseok energy backing up his stance within collaborate/group work in the 3 of Pentacles, while Submission reflects his effort to bring his solo energy into the group.
I’m very focused on the fact that the bird cage in Submission is open but the bird wilfully stays inside, similar to Hoseok’s temporary state of self-suppression that we saw in his Elemental Alignment and Core Energy Reading — mind you, there is a free-flying bird in Originality, continuing that back and forth balance.
Then, this pattern continues with Poised behind Originality meeting Not For You behind Submission. Not For You has been coming up a lot more frequently in relation to strategy and mindfulness toward what a person wants and what they don’t want, what works for them and what doesn’t work for them, and how they plan to operate around those matters. The 9 of Cups would lead the strategy or personal plans of Not For You while the collaborative mind and operation of the 3 of Pentacles would manage the energy of Poised, which feels a bit more like Submission in the sense of someone sort of standing in their role, waiting for their signal, kind of following the general outlines of someone else’s show.
At the very end, these back-and-forth, nicely balanced energies are held together between the Heart Chakra and Healing. So much of this goes back to his other readings, but I’m very focused on the connection to Earth energy through the green in both images, connecting back to the significance of intentionally staying grounded and seeking out a sense of stability within new systems and dynamics. It may seem quite all over the place, but these back-and-forth energies are showing a really nice balance where nothing on either end is sacrificed and instead both sides, the self-focused and group-oriented sides, are playing well together and seem to eventually solidify the ground he stands on. The balance becomes the new normal, the new familiar, and it just ties everything together.
Over the next year, Hoseok will be weaving different elements of himself together, and different elements of himself into the group, his personal connections, and the world overall, creating a new kind of tapestry, vision, and image that he will share quite vividly in many different ways, both with the group and as a solo artist.
Jimin’s Outlook
Jimin’s center cards, The Threshold and The Vision, immediately brought to mind the number 10 that showed up in his Elemental Alignment reading toward the very end, which marked the potential of him either “snuffing himself out” and bringing his half-moon status down to a darkened New Moon, or, preferably, igniting himself entirely to be illuminated as the Full Moon. Even the Owls in the image of The Vision ring back to the Owl in that was representing the position of his soul, guiding him and hoping to get him to the right place, but there are necessary steps that he has to take on a conscious level, work he has to do on himself to get to that high point. In the deepest part of the image, we see The Mountain with colorful skies which lies over a shadowy forest. Even with the two Owls, this split potential is quite clear, but the highlight of the illuminated side of The Threshold makes the soul’s goal clear.
The two sides of his spread refer to external operation and internal operation, more so designated by public/work-related matters and personal/private matters. What’s interesting is that they are offsetting each other in an interesting way where there’s a big shift in how he allows work-related or public influence to affect him through Healing, while it appears certain elements of his personal life are going to be more public as Empowerment plays off of healing and gives him more confidence to open up and share elements of his private life, seemingly connecting to relationships and living, health, or homelife with Soul Mates, Loyal Heart, and Health.
Breaking it down a little more, there is healing being done between aspects of Yin, the Divine Feminine, and Assertion. As I see it, the knight in Assertion who is fighting the dragon is the same man who is in the 8 of Pentacles, working away on his projects quietly on his own. There is a conflict between Assertion’s masculine energy, the need to defend and protect, and Yin’s feminine energy, the desire to be relaxed and at ease, creating something like in the 8 of Pentacles.
What is being healed here is the wounds that the dragon, most likely connected to the public and people who are just really fucking awful to him for no fucking reason, and is giving him the necessary backing and inner support required to put down the sword and shield and just be an artist, making as much as he wants, saying as much as he wants, sharing as much as he wants without any concern for what vile beasts out in the world are going to say or do about it. This was a big theme in his Elemental Alignment.
The other side, which connects to his personal life, is so overflowing with elements of love and romance here, it’s a little crazy. Like this man is loved up and he wants everyone to know about it. As mentioned, through healing his connection to the public, he has the potential of opening up more about his personal life and sharing these significant elements with people — Loyal Heart and Soul Mates, implying a significant committed relationship. With the Health card, associated with the Sun in Virgo, I was seeing an illumination brought to the 6th House, the home, the daily life, the more mundane things put on display and shared quite happily, potentially with a partner, his family, or just on his own.
The Hierophant is an interesting foundation here, showing that while this is all open, there, on the ground level, is a clear boundary where he is the Hierophant while the audience and spectators are the two people down below. It’s coming across as recognizing, on both sides, that it is a privilege, not a right, to have access to his personal affairs, and that he holds all the power and can easily shut everything down and go quiet again if he wants to. This observable boundary is a safety net for himself, something he may need to affirm again and again.
This also made me think of the “raise the price,” thing that came up in his Elemental Alignment reading as well in regard to him being very careful about how, when, where, and with who he chooses to share himself or share his better qualities. This could even suggest being involved in a variety show where there’s a literal payment set up for him to share pieces of his life, or it’s a more closed-off thing behind a “pay wall” like Are You Sure?!
Jin’s Outlook
There’s something very, very nice here but I’m not entirely sure if I can even talk about it. There’s a hefty spotlight being put on it but it feels a bit too personal for this. In short, the whole left side of this reading for Jin is focused on Soul Mates, Flattery, and celebration amongst friends in the 3 of Cups, all of which is backed by Delight. I was seeing the Delight card connect to The Threshold, suggesting that the vividness of this space is what he will be stepping into, a sort of “new phase of life,” that is very warm and closely guarded within his close social circle.
On the right side, however, this is all connected to work but it’s very simple, not as lit up as the left side. It’s all coming across very basic with elements of strategy and planning, suggestions of travel and keeping schedules, and the general connection to the public and fans. It’s very simplified, but I am noticing The World card peering over at the left side of the spread, suggesting that this lack of stimulation is just because his mind is preoccupied with what is going on in other areas of his life.
Taehyung’s Outlook
The Mirror is a big thing for Taehyung on many levels in relation to his perception of himself, his identity, and his understanding of his way forward. There’s a lot of very conscious level stimulation there with the King and Knight of Swords, however, the King comes off as being a bit more passive with being rooted into Acquisition, a kind of superficial or external reliance on status or image, how he is perceived by the public. Over with the Knight of Swords, where there is an urge to run forward or attack The Mirror, or maybe attack the King, there is a panicked feeling with Caution, associated with Mercury in Virgo, which feels to be an internal reflection or observation of Acquisition, a more internalized reflection of that external reliance on the perception of others. I almost can’t separate the King and the Knight, but they’re holding very different energies.
When I zoom out on this a bit, it almost feels like the King is comfortable and stable when he is in Acquisition, when he is dressed up and among other people who are of a higher status, he understands himself to be matching them on a very superficial level, he fits there with his appearance. The Caution card is a situation where he’s suddenly made to feel out of place or has done or said something that breaks the illusion. There’s a sudden split where I see the Knight of Swords literally separate from the image of the woman in Caution and charge forward as if to punish the King. But, as I said, they are the same person, so, he’s really running toward The Mirror, toward his own reflection, which he may be observing to be “out of line” or “improper.” This is just going into this major issue of identity and sense of a split perception of himself between who he knows he is (doesn’t want to be) and who he knows others see him as (the image he wants to hold all the time).
Behind these cards, he has Time To Go and Synergy on the left behind the King, and Time For A Nap and Crown Chakra behind the Knight. There is movement and effort to blend in or work with the surroundings behind the King while there is a higher urging to separate and relax into the self behind the Knight. There is conflict with both of these though where the King becomes stagnant in an effort to not mess up his image or appearance within that space, and, of course, the Knight rapidly tries to change his position, fix something when he’s fallen out of place rather than allowing himself to settle into something that could register as a natural flow.
I see this lining up with how the Knight runs to the left while the woman and the animals in Caution run toward the right, he’s running toward what another part of himself is telling him to run away from. This could be the split between the soul and Ego.
Jungkook’s Outlook
There is something very, very interesting here with The Sustainer laying over The Riddle as Jungkook’s main focus for his outlook over the next year because it feels like it extends well beyond this timeframe and may be setting a tone for the rest of his life. This goes back a bit to what I mentioned in his Elemental Alignment reading where it seemed like, once completely out of the military and no longer bound by external obligations that are beyond his control, he will view the rest of his life, all of his own time and energy, as being completely under his own ruling.
With The Riddle, there is a sense of questioning, confusion, and multiple hands, multiple influences having a say over his time, energy, and even his identity to a degree. There’s a stubbornness to the way the hands at the bottom of The Riddle are clasped together, locked in over his own energy. It’s like he was holding the mindset that people can take his time, they can take his energy, but he will hold onto himself, hold onto his identity and elements of his heart, his joys and loves. He made very clean lines in the sand around what he was willing to, or really had no choice but to abide by, while hanging onto his center.
With The Sustainer, I see those clasped hands at the bottom overtaking the entire image of The Riddle, taking the three-ring knot, the implied chaos or influence of other people, and squishing it into one solid ball as we see in The Sustainer. He’s taking ALL of the areas of his life and putting them under his own control, shaping them in his own vision. This also brings to mind what came up for him and Jimin with taking their inner visions, inner worlds and curating them in the outside world for everyone to see and to live within, potentially for the rest of their lives.
The image of The Sustainer feels very well protected and secured with that gold box around the image, feeling divinely protected by the outer colors of purple and blue, which felt connected to something beyond the Soul Body as well as connecting to the overall Soul Group. There’s a really nice harmony to this.
On the left side, there is a major focus on his soul mate, the one we see in both his Past Life Reading and his Soul Mate Reading, as shown with the appearance of The Magician and Temperance yet again. There’s a very clear separation between higher universal aspects with Soul Time and The Fates, and the more conscious level reflections of the individual souls, presenting as fully integrated into the conscious levels, with The Magician and Temeprance.
In the center, there is a line of conflict between the image of Adam and Eve, which can be looked at as The Magician and Temperance, Jungkook and his soul mate, where there is an attempt to block them or hinder them from being able to share themselves with the world in the way that they want to. The snake’s tongue being Mercury and the general influence of Mercury in Libra is making me think of social media and potential backlash. It’s a non-issue really, in the grand scheme of things — the snake that towers over them in the image is nothing more than a speck of dust compared to Soul Time and The Fates, and nothing more than a worm in the grass to The Magician and Temperance. While this can become dangerous, connecting to the potential poison of the snake’s bite, as well as the thorns on the roses in the image, an attempt to harm them, it is a destined display. They are meant to be seen and they are meant to be together.
This is a major part of the clay ball in The Sustainer. It is a very, very significant focus for Jungkook and on many levels is registering as something that he wants to establish, ensure, and build on for the rest of his life. This is deeply rooted in the soul as, with the Past Life Reading, we know that he has had trouble making and keeping a connection with this soul mate and it has been locked in and guaranteed for him to experience in this lifetime. No part of him is going to wilfully let this go or keep it hidden for long, no matter how many snake bites he gets or how many thorns he has to crawl through. This is a matter of fate that he intends on experiencing and holding onto for both of them.
This set feels very similar to the previous where we see Jungkook with his soul mate meeting some kind of backlash or intended damage that they are able to overcome by way of fate and divine protection itself, along with their support of each other. Here, however, this is showing Jungkook on his own, his own personal uprising and display of his true self and identity, which was lining up with the element of his Sunburst, or the expression of his fully integrated soul.
Death represents the “death of the former identity,” but not in a way where there is full destruction, more so in a way where he is shedding skin, shedding a few layers — more like what we see with the fairy in Exchanging Gifts emerging from a wrapped box. Nothing is being destroyed or lost, something is just being revealed. There’s a bit of a trial to this, a suggestion of necessary challenges presented in Risk with Saturn in Aries — it’s a trial of the self, one last fight, one last hurdle to prove to himself and his soul, and maybe even Saturn himself, that he is willing to push past any backlash, mockery, or criticism in order to affirm himself as he is.
In the top image of the Risk card, I see Jungkook facing a bear, similar to how we see him and his soul mate facing the snake. There’s a more tangible goal here though, as if this specific encounter or challenge is destined for him. With the snake, it’s a non-issue, not important, something that shouldn’t be there, but it is, so they’ll have to simply step over it and pay it no mind. The Bear has been positioned, right there at the entrance of a new path. It feels a lot like a final boss in a video game, which takes me back to the “level up, gamer!” that came out in his Elemental Alignment Reading.
In the lower image, I see those three items as things he’s supposed to collect. I see the first one as a symbol of the bear’s tooth, implying that he takes their words, their bite, and either disables it, or takes it and has the potential to use it against them. Either way, it implies defeating the bear and having something to show for it, something that proves to himself and others that he can and will overcome anything that stands in the way of him living as freely and as authentically as he pleases.
The key feels like the access to the higher path, or to a path that is entirely under his control — he has the keys to the car, the key to the city, the answer key for a test, a key to help decode issues or obstacles in the future. It’s what opens him up to the world, and opens the world to him.
Lastly, the tree with what looks like pentacles made me think of the 10 of Pentacles, the 3 of Wands, and the 3 of Pentacles. It implies perpetual growth, like accessing a money tree — unlimited energy to create, perform, grow, travel, and earn.
Really, it’s like everything opens up for him from this point on, and it’s entirely up to him how things pan out, with tremendous focus on his soul mate connection and his work, both with the group and as a solo artist. He feels to be on the verge of being very, very well established in all areas of his life. I think he’ll be quite pleased with himself and his progression going forward, very confident.
That’s all I have for this one, thanks for reading! :)
