Okay here we go with the second half of your reading hun.
The cards were just all a chatter for you !
This is called the butterfly spread with a card in each directional corner ( no center card though like with the last spread). This spread is used to help determine outcomes in group projects or enterprises.
East card is the Egg card....the seed of an idea you have for a project or activity.
Dragonfly....this lil fellow's message is about illusions. The illusions we make for ourselves as well as what we throw out to others. Dragonfly is an omen of change, a messenger that says "if you seek out between the illusions you will see what you need to change, whether it is in yourself or outside yourself." He brings you the message of wisdom and enlightenment with communications from the elemental worlds. If you feel you are ready for a change Dragonfly is your helper to guide you through any illusions you may have.
South card is the Larva card which is the catepillar whose job is to start doing. What is it he needs to do? What energies do you need to apply to get things rolling so that you can get to the next level?
Squirrel. Squirrel is a gatherer. He gathers his food left and right so that he can prepare for the winter ahead. Squirrel could be telling you to gather ahead for the future or to let go of things you have hoarded and don't need ( like worries, stress , fears,) so you will be able to better gather what comes to you in the future. It's a balancing act with Squirrel with gathering, letting go, focusing and forgetting.
West Card is the Coccoon card which is the transformation card. The higher purpose card. What spurred you into this group/activity/project?
Porpcupine. Ahh she is such a wide eyed and gentle critter. You know they are so trusting you could actually pet one if you didna startle it? Porcupine represents innocence in that she has the power of Faith and Trust. She trusts that Great Spirit has a divine plan and that even if she doesn't understand the details, she knows she is a part of that plan. She asks you not to get too caught up in the chaos of fear, greed and suffering. She asks that you open your eyes like a child again so you can honor the wonder of life and appreciation of each new day as an adventure of discovery. She offers a relief from seriousness and severity and reminds you to open your heart to joy.
(whenever I draw this card I always think "Play!")
The North Card is the Butterfly card or the card of manifestation as you have gone from egg to catepillar ( larva) to cocoon and now you are ready to fly.......
Badger. Hmmm they don't fly well do they? ! Aggressiveness. RRRR! Everyone knows how fierce a Badger can be. Quick to anger and pounce they are. So how does this help? No Badger is not telling you to pounce about and rip off the ears of any who won't listen. She's reminding you of your connection to earth ( she sees the healin roots in the roof of her home and is very good at grounding out negative energy due to her connection with Mother Earth). She reminds you that sometimes it is necessary to be aggressive in what you believe in. And that there is no shame in baring teeth when they need to be born.
Badger also reminds you not to give up. Keep going and fight for what you believe in. Dig in and hang on. Being tenacious is a good thing.
She may have cropped up in your cards because perhaps you have been too quiet. Maybe her aggressive approach to healing (blunt here) is the medicine you need to dig inside and stand thoroughly in what you believe in.
Okay so my take on it?
( and this just my opinion/gathering on it and is in no way a judgement or anything like that).
I dunno if the group/activity/project thing is meetup related or not honestly ( because I don't know what you do on the side or anything ).
Anyways it sounds like you want to get your feet wet again ( interact with others) however you are still not 100% trusting, you still trying to prep for things ahead ( maybe that a habit with you?) though it would do good to let go of unneededs (a new word no?). It sounds like you WANT to play....just sounds like you are wary ( been burnt) and maybe what help you this time around in playing with others is to dig in and bare your teeth a bit ( unless that was the original issue.....then back off a bit? ).
Lemme know if you need any other details or break down and what na on your reading. I be more than willing to help.
I hope this helped some.
C.S.

Hmm, I know I certainly have my illusions about people....I take on flights of fancy at a drop of a hat, but over time, I've worked on not taking every vision seriously, though its fun to fantasize, if only for a short period.
I've also been looking inward for some time, because its safe and secure, if a little lonely. But my astrology chart tells me that my path in this life tells me I should be more socially-oriented, that joining groups is my path to feeling more like I've accomplished something in this world, as opposed to
frittering away my life by myself in useless pursuits.
But sometimes its not easy getting to know new people. I know I was pretty fearful when I attended a Meetup for the 1st time. Given my flights of fancy in the past, and the letdown I felt when my hopes didn't come to pass, created its own illusion that nothing would ever work out, no one was interested in what I had to say.
Well, that bubble of assumption got popped real quick.
Believe it or not you are an interesting person. I know I have a great time yibberin with you and once you get your feet wet here on the boards other people will get to know how cool you are too.
