Relationship issues are something that we all need to address at different points in our life. At different times, different types of relationships may come into the picture. Today we are going to be talking about business relationships. Even someone who is running their own business and calling all of their own shots still needs to form working relationships with other people.
The Seeker in this reading has as their goal the manifestation of a win/win working relationship with another person that clearly is concerned only with their own agenda. For the Seeker to achieve their goals, they will need to help the other person achieve theirs.
The question we are working with here is:
What do I need to know about “X” to create a mutually beneficial business relationship?
The positions in the reading are defined as:
- What is important to the Seeker in this relationship?
- What is important to the other person in this relationship?
- What is important to both people in this relationship?
The cards drawn were: Ten of Wands, King of Cups, Three of Wands
Ten of Wands – King of Cups – Three of Wands
It is very important to the Seeker that everyone pull their own weight, that they take responsibility for their own work, and not try to foist is off on the Seeker. What the Seeker wishes to avoid is being overloaded with work, being overwhelmed with the responsibility of getting the job done.
In a word, it is important for the other person in the relationship to be liked. They want to be considered the “good guy”, and will do what it takes to put themselves in that position. They are very good at controlling their emotions, and can be sensitive and compassionate.
It is important to both individuals in this relationship that they form a bond, that they work together to move their business goals forward. These individuals are both good at planning, and carrying out those plans. As long as the Seeker does not feel that the bulk of the workload is on them, and they show respect and appreciation to the other person, this could be a good business relationship.
