The first card we examine is The Hanged Man. This card suggests to us that the subject is stuck in a non-productive situation. The Hanged Man represents the need to make a decision or change direction. The subject may be blocked by feelings such as confusion, uncertainty or lack of goals. In this situation, the advice we can give is to take some time to reflect and clarify what your intentions are and how to get there.
The second card we examine is the King of Cups. This card suggests that the subject must learn to love each other in order to achieve success in life and in relationships. The King of Cups represents a willingness to approach relationships with trust and emotional openness. It also reminds us of the importance of accepting ourselves in order to then be able to share love with others. The advice we can give is to take the time to develop a sense of self-love, clarify your emotional wants and needs, and be open to new experiences.
Bottom line, our answer to the question is YES: there is something you need to work on yourself before looking for a relationship. The two cards suggest that before starting a relationship you need to take time to reflect on your situation, identify your goals, learn to love yourself and open up emotionally to others. Only then will you be ready to build a healthy relationship based on mutual love, understanding and respect.
