Spring,
The question on which your reading will be based is as follows.

| During the next six months covered by this reading, do you feel that our combined income as a couple could increase significantly, due to my husband gaining suitable and regular employment? |
Wording it this way immediately eliminates any possibility that this could be seen as being a third party reading, and also rules out the chance that your combined income may be given a one off boost due to you getting more money by selling off goods or through you winning a prize in a lottery. We are looking in this reading for a steady, adequate for your needs and regular income, rather than only for a short term lump sum injection of funds.
There are of course many factors both known and currently unknown which could either work for or against Omar landing a job between now and the end of the year. I am sure that you are both fully aware of many of these, so I will not bore you by going over them again here.
Many if not most of them could only be properly determined through a third party reading, but the one which stands out in your more indirect reading must be the quality of the other applicants who are competing for the same position as your partner.
No matter how experienced or qualified Omar is to get he job, if there are others who are better qualified and who have more relevant experience in that area, then a prospective employer is probably going to go with the applicant who represents the least risk that the company will have to advertise the same position again within several weeks, after having invested so much time, money and effort into training someone.
And the longer the person has been out of work, the more employers begin to wonder if there is a hidden reason why they are long term unemployed. Even the boss has to answer to the CEO and company shareholders if things do not work out well with a new employee on their payroll. Long term unemployment does not usually do much of a positive nature for a person's self confidence, self respect and health.
Keeping the condition in mind that if a more qualified and experienced and person with a more suitable personality was competing for the same job that any predictions made about your chances of Omar getting off the unemployment queue before the new year could potentially be of little value or reliability, your focus card which was
The Devil suggests to me all of his attempts to earn an honest living and pay off the huge back log of bills which must be accumulating by now could quickly and easily come unstuck unless he gets the rest of his life back into balance beforehand.
The Devil is mainly about the constant and ongoing challenge of balancing our physical against all other types of needs which we human beings have. It normally is seen as a warning that certain negative habits and addictions can so easily distract us from what is really of greatest importance or significance in our lives (that is our close relationships with others and our soul's growth and development).
Now I would not want to go as far as to say that he must immediately give up all his negative and potentially self sabotaging habits if he is going to give himself any reasonable change of getting a job, or that he is the only person who has these habits. Enjoying our physical pleasures and having some of the little luxuries which make our lives seem more worth is not bad or evil in itself. It is only when the pursuit of our physical pleasures and accumulating more and more money becomes our only mission in life and they distract us from what we are really here for that things can rapidly go downhill.
Based heavily upon this reading and in particular your focus card The Devil, I feel that Omar's and therefore your chance of having your income increased through him getting a job before 2012 begins are fairly average or near to 50% he will, and 50% he will probably not. If he does become more aware of some of the negative habits of his past that up until now have worked against him getting another job, then it is felt that your outlook for him once more bringing in a weekly pay packet sky rockets.
You must both unite and co-operate together as a married couple in order to help him to overcome these existing barriers to him getting useful work sooner rather than much later (he can no longer do this entirely by himself). This must be a team effort. Openly criticizing him and making him feel less of a man in his own eyes is almost guaranteed to make the problem one hundred times worse than it already is.
Instead make him feel in so many ways that you are on his side and his most loyal fan, and that any progress which he makes in dealing with these self defeating habits of his in a sensible and balanced and non accusing way will be of lasting positive benefit to your relationship with each other over the longer term.
One final point which came out of the reading was that Omar may need to do a bridging course or improve his education qualifications before the chances of him getting the type of job which he is looking for can become much larger than they already are. I clearly see him seated in some sort of classroom or learning environment. Whether it is a physical or virtual classroom via the internet, is not equally clear. Otherwise he may need to consider a different job or career direction which does not involve him having to do this.
Kindest regards and the best of good fortune to you both. Do not feel embarrassed if you find that you need to enlist the services of a qualified and trained professional person with the intention to help your husband and wife team to enjoy a victory against unfair discrimination against immigrants, and other people's ignorance. It is not a sign of any weakness, but instead it is a sign of the immense shared inner strength contained within your marriage, which you are now tapping into.
L&L,
