Burned Out by Social Media? "Should I Stay or Should I Quit?" Get Advice from a Two-Choice Tarot Spread!
Hello! I'm Aries Yoko, the fortune-telling manga artist. Are you enjoying your creative activities?
Whether it's original work or fan art, social media is indispensable for sharing your creations. But sometimes, unwanted things catch your eye, and it can leave your heart feeling a bit stung.
"If I don't keep interacting, people might forget me..." "But I'm at my limit with looking at the screen right now..."
When you're stuck between moving forward or stepping back, why not take a peek at the futures of each path through a Tarot "Choice Reading"?
🔮 Two Paths: A Sample Tarot Reading
What kind of scenery will the cards show you if you choose to "continue" or to "take a break"?
【A: The Path of Continuing Social Media】
If "The Moon" appears here... It seems you're still in a fog of anxiety. If you force yourself to keep posting, you might end up swinging between joy and sorrow over every reaction, fighting "invisible enemies" even more. Even if you continue, you'll need a strategy to protect your heart, such as an "information fast" or making full use of mute functions.
【B: The Path of Decisively Taking a Break】
If "The Hermit" appears here... Taking a break isn't "running away"; it's going to a "sanctuary" to reclaim yourself. This card tells you that by facing yourself quietly and alone, you will find new ideas and the things you "truly wanted to draw." By logging out for a while and sharpening your senses in the world outside the screen, you'll likely return as a stronger version of yourself.
2. Things to Remember When You're Lost
【Card: Wheel of Fortune】
"It's natural for there to be waves in both life and creation." No one can keep growing and posting energetically forever. You might just happen to be in an "off-mode" cycle right now.
The fear that "people will forget me if I quit" might actually be an illusion you've created. Those who truly wait for your work will wait as long as it takes for you to return in good health.
Advice from Aries Yoko
There is no single "correct" answer between continuing or resting. The important thing is to choose the path that makes your heart feel like it can hold a pen again.
"In my case, which path is brighter?" "If I rest, how long should I take?"

In Closing
Social media is just a "tool," and you are your own master. Don't let the tool toss you around and extinguish your precious creative fire.
When your heart feels restless, try putting your phone down for a moment. I'm always cheering for you! ★
