PCO: Got hired. What should I expect from my first month in this job?

After a couple of months sending resumes and going to interviews and tests, I finally got an opportunity at a local book publisher. They'll hire me for three months as a trainee and, if they like my work, they might keep me. I start there on the 10th of May.

So, I did a playing cards reading asking what should I expect during my first month there. I removed the first three cards from the top of the deck (as they represent the three weeks from here to the day I start working) and read the four following cards, according to Ana Cortez's method.

Head (♦/Fire): 5♦

.

Throat (♣/Air): 9♣

.

Torso (♥/Water): 2♠

.

Feet (♠/Earth): 7♥

Well, the reading is very balanced... all suits present, and the same amount of red and black cards. I think the experience will be complete... it'll touch me in all aspects, emotional, mental, physical etc. Each card represents not only an area of our lives, but also a week in a month. In this reading I'm considering each position both things.

The first card in Head position is the 5 of Diamonds, The Peddler's Ace. Because it's in such a good position (the position of it's own suit), this card loses its most negative meanings, and stands for exchanges in transitions in general. I believe that it captures well the feeling of the reading, since I'll be giving and receiving in this moment, and especially during the first week, in which I'll have lots to learn. This position is also related to self-esteem and creativity issues, and the card... it gives me a feeling of instability. I'll not be at my best concerning my self-esteem, I'll probably be feeling a bit insecure (but nothing serious).

The card in the Throat position is 9 of Clubs (Galahad) - again, the card is in it's own suit place so it's dignified. This card has such a quietness about it... make me think that I'll not be much communicative during this first month, but rather concentrated (not to say devoted) to my tasks. As the second week of the month, it gives me a feeling or introspection, but also looking at the final goal with a more positive view. Things will be calm.

The third card is the 2 of Spades, The Enemies (uh-oh!), is in the Torso position. This card is not in it's suit position, but Spades and Hearts are good partners, so it's no completely bad here, although it does point to the possibility of a conflict. I see some inner struggles about this job, like two voices inside my heart debating whether it's worth it or not. It may also mean some fights in the job itself, during the third week... not a huge thing, because the card is well-placed, but enough to sting. I think the third week will be the one of my first mistake, the moment in which I'll give them the reason to chide me.

Last, but not lest, the fourth card 7 of Hearts (Sword of Healing) in the Foot position... like the 2 of Spades, it's not ill-dignified here. This card somehow cures the conflict of the card above, soothing the wounds. I believe it means that this job will help me to heal some of my inner conflicts during this first month. As for the fourth week, I think it might be a more peaceful one, though I'm not safe from some eventually "cutting" situations (my fault, because I tend to be frail around others). I believe this card is telling to take care of myself & my body, because there might be some illness lurking during that time (and the new routine may mess with my immune system).

Now a bit of Geomancy to finish: Puer + Conjunctio = Puella. The geomancy complements the reading, saying that the month will start aggressively because I'll be the odd man out (and this usually makes people a bit aggravated), but eventually I'll be able to mingle more and thus feel more peaceful, more connected. The peace will turn hostile Puer into friendly Puella, making the environment more pleasant.
