7 of Cups + 10 of Swords, Happy + African American

Fear rears its ugly head! 

A bag of mixed feelings!
There's this excitement within us, and all these options and possibilities coming before us, many of which we may have wished for a long time.
Yet, there's so much discomfort...!?

It can't be real, can it?
We're having those rose-tinted glasses on again, haven't we?
We can't possible be worth this, can we?
We surely will end up geting hurt - 'bit from behind' - won't we?
It must be 'to good to be true'.

Uncertainty makes a strong come-back!
A part of us (#IFS ) seems to think we're acting way 'too courageously' now (a lions body). Very afraid that we're chasing pipe-dreams (C7), only to 'end up getting hurt' - again.
Fear wants to take this foolish bravery, and excitement/hope/happiness, of ours down (stabbed body) by instilling fear in us - chasing us with snapping thoughts, reminding us of our weaknesses (top right corner). Make us turn around and 'run for our lives' (preferably in the other direction).

C7
"everything that is being offered to you is good. There's no way to make a wrong choice"

No reason to be afraid!
Permission to keeping dreaming, and be brave (and vulnerable) :)
