Possibly by the type of person or the personality traits attributed to Nephthys – someone with a quiet, controlled and tranquil nature. Nephthys is often portrayed as a shy or withdrawn individual or a deeply spiritual person who has strong psychic gifts
Do you feel as if your own reservedness has been holding you back? Or that someone else’s quiet, reserved nature has been the cause of some sort of obstacle?
Nephthys in this position can also speak of a diffusion of energies – are you or the person you are asking about trying to follow too many paths at once? Would trying to concentrate on fewer things at once get you further?
It can also talk of tension, deviousness, illusion and in extreme cases, even psychosis. Addictions can sometimes be implied by this card, in certain circumstances.
Or it can simply mean that you know that you must leave your comfort zone to take the next step, and that the thought of doing that scares you.
