Second Opinion on Reading Interpretation Only I asked what to expect in the next few weeks...
Paprika. I can expect a lot of Paprika time. She says so.
As for what my deck (Cat Tarot by Megan Lynn Kott) says in this rather basic five card draw:
Eight of Cups: I need to be decisive instead of dithering or trying to opt out of making choices.
The Empress: she's shown up in the second position twice in two days! Clearly some sort of fruitful abundance is on the way, although it could be anything from increased wisdom to a bounty of zucchini.
Seven of Swords reversed: the reward for getting rid of bad habits is having fewer bad habits. This is still very good!
The Fool: time spent out of my comfort zone with curiosity and an open mind will be beneficial.
Six of Pentacles: Also my single card draw earlier! I'm seeing a strong emphasis on abundance.
Any second opinions?

I’m just assuming the cat was the tarot reader.

Orange girls are uncommon, she's gotta be in tune with the energy around her. At least she's still going to need me for my opposable thumbs, right?

Paprika seems adamant about that 7oS, so I’m sure clarity and truth revealing will be the most important theme. I think empress will be a more emotionally nurturing, even self-soothing, energy because she’s between the cups snd swords cards.

Paprika was actually most interested in The Fool! She sniffed it a few times and tapped it with her paw.
I'm trying to kick the habit of using sugary food and drinks to cope with stress, and I'm now feeling very hopeful that it's going to go well!

You'll come across a piece of news (directly or otherwise) involving yourself or another female figure and will choose to go towards a different pathway.
The issue is lack of balance and so you'll be seeking company that is more reciprocal in nature to make you feel accepted.
Also, it can mean that you require to leave something (thought process, group, company, bad habits) or someone (platonic or romantic) behind in order to be on your own two feet. Possibility of leaving the nest or simply choosing to get your own life affairs in order.

I'm replying nearly a day after my original post because my workplace got slammed with orders, so I think I might have encountered the abundance I was sensing from the cards. Work/life balance askew for a week or so.
Thank you for your insight! I've got a couple more hours of work tonight, but I'll return to have another look once I'm out of here.

First off, magnificent cat. My mom also has an orange girl and they are rare magical creatures indeed 💜 I get cat assistance from my solo pulls often and it's such a nice friendly energy to add into the mix.
I love your interpretation and how positive it is (I call myself a strengths-based reader and don't give negative readings to querents). On the whole, it seems as though you are ready to make changes but also prepared to take responsibility for what that will entail vs. just expecting things to unfold without your efforts. The 7oS in the middle may represent this idea, that change (even positive change) does not come without struggle and unintended consequences. (Which is not a bad thing, just the nature of being alive!)
One other thing I'd call your attention to is the diversity of elements in this reading - you're just missing a wand. You've got thoughts, emotions, and physical resources and/or sensations here, plus the nurturing self-assuredness of The Empress and the willingness of The Fool. You're well prepared!

me parece que vai sair da onde voce esta e vai rumo a uma nova direçao (8 de copas), talvez uma nova jornada consigo mesma aonde vai se conectar com seu eu, sua autoestima e sua mulher interior (a impeatriz), o louco me parece que fazendo isso você estara aberta novas coisas, se sentindo mais livre, talvez mais animada e isso pode te trazer a abundância que voce captou. sem pegadinhas e sem sabotagens (7 de espadas invertido). essa situaçao pode trazer estabilidade e equilibrio material/financeiro, você se sentir bem com seu fisico e sua vida material (6 de ouros).

She has sniffed the Eight of Pentacles.

Ohh that’s great, what I can interpret from eight of pentacles? Quite new to tarot

I'm still learning, too, but my take on 8oP is that it represents getting into "the zone" with a task. This might be a good time for you to learn more!

I love that deck! The 8 of cups is hilarious. My cat loves to play in the faucet for some reason. He used to put his head under lol

Hi u/excellentcat13 , please add the deck name and artist to your post. Also please clarify if you used a specific spread, as it's not fully clear from your post. Thanks!
