Attachment
My Interpretation of the Card
Upright
Sometimes we are our own worst enemy. In life sometimes there are situations, memories or people that served a purpose at the time but no longer serve us in the now. In this picture we see a lady chained for what seems like years based on the cobwebs. This shows whatever you are holding onto is actually setting you back. What situation has you trapped and not reaching your true self? Is there a way for you to work through it so you can finally let go and reach your highest potential? As the lady gazes upon the mask, it can mean the real you is hiding behind something. Let go of what doesn’t raise you up. Some relationships do not bring out the best in you though we stick around hoping it will get better, when sometimes we just need to let go.
Reversed
Reversed card can show that you have no worries weighing you down at the moment. That you have learned to let go and go about your path with no restraint. Even though you may have broken your chains of former retraints, it's a learning experience for you to build from. This card may also mean that you are detaching yourself from a particular situation/moment. This may be a time to focus on relationships whether it be with family, friends or partner. You don’t want to neglect the people who are around to support you through whatever situation or issues you may be facing. You may put on a front to deal with your problems, but this card is to remind you, disconnecting from others is not the answer. Don’t hold yourself back and open yourself to others. You never know what you will receive if you do not reach out.
Guidebook meaning - Summarised
Perceived Need and the Choice to Let Go
Upright
You are stuck and though you wear a mask of contentment, you cannot move forward due to strong attachments to old patterns or people from the past. What is stopping you from moving forward can be old relationships, addictions, habits or patterns. You seem to live in fear or desperat efor the future though whatever is stopping you, could be your own doing. This card is advising that you need to break the chains in order to live a happier life by moving forward. It may be scary to confront this but you have the power to overcome these attachments. Until you release this stuck energy, you may find yourself repeating these old patterns and habits.
Reversed
The card in reverse may signify an old pattern, habit or relationship being released. The more you let go, the more you develop new ways of doing things and the universe recognises these efforts. Old patterns may be so deeply engrained that this will be an ongoing process but the universe will support you through these feelings, actions and interactions you have with others. You are breaking the chains that bind you and are working towards a bright future, moving on from the attachments that have restrained you in the past.

Conclusion Between my Interpretation & Guidebook
I thought I did really well on the upright meaning. On the reverse, I feel like I heavily focused on the chains still being attached rather than seeing that they may be broken. The word detachment came into my head as I looked at the reversed card - that detaching yourself from others might be your downfall. In this case, the reverse card was exactly the opposite meaning of the Upright card which isn't always the case. Good effort today.
