Start Today with Guidance and a Glimpse of Possibilities

The Page of Cups stands before gently rolling waves and holds a Cup from which a fish fancifully emerges - a fish that is echoed in the Page’s hat. This is a card of a type of potential that is lightly held and playfully engaged with.

Where Wands symbolize the element of Fire, Cups represent Water: receptivity, love, and the inner being are the province of this suit. In the Ace we see the culmination of these things: a hand appears from a cloud holding a Cup -a grail - from which multiple streams of water run into a beautiful pool. This flowing water will never run out: it is infinite, as love is.

Ace of Pentacles is linked to themes of prosperity and the manifestation of abundance. New opportunities are coming towards you that can lead you to a new phase of success in your life. This is time to recognize your value and how much you have to offer the world. Use your skills to invite more abundance and fulfillment into your life. 

The joy and optimism inherent in Ten of Cups are clear for all to see: the rainbow, a symbol of hope, contains ten images of the suit arching across the sky. Below, a couple looks up, delighted at the sight, while their children dance beside them: the little ones don’t need to see the rainbow itself to be filled with the simple happiness that life can offer.

The Five of Swords depicts a victorious figure in the foreground, gathering the Swords of the opponents he has defeated who have turned away, in the background, disconsolate. A grey, choppy sea swirls beneath a turbulent, ragged sky, suggesting both emotional and mental disquiet.

The Strength card traditionally depicts a woman gently opening (or caressing) the jaws of a lion, who looks up at her with complete trust. The lion can symbolize our passions, and our unconscious energy: the kind that manifests through our intuition and our dreams. In taming this, the woman in the card is allowing this side of her being to safely merge with the rational, outward-looking aspect of her core personality. Interestingly, the Strength attribute is normally perceived as being linked to the woman; however, in allowing itself to trust and have faith, it is, perhaps, the lion that more properly embodies the deeper meaning of the card.
