Card of the Week


Three Of Cups

First Meaning
This is the Celebration Card. Don't they look as if they are celebrating? The clear blue sky indicates that things are going in a positive direction, and that it will be like clear sailing, harmony and peace before them. It is a joyous occasion filled with happiness, rewards, pleasure, fun, it is celebrating the fruits of their labor. Anytime you have fruit or foliage in the card, it is suggesting fruitfulness or abundance. So in general, this is a wonderfully happy card where the Querent may be celebrating with his/her closest friends and family over accomplishing something that was positively accomplished.

Second Meaning (which I most often use)
We have the lovely blue sky, as noted above, without clouds so we know things are going in a very positive direction and will have an optimistic attitude around the situation at hand. Three women, or three parts of you, are coming together. You have evolved into someone new. We could use the woman as the past, present and future you.

In the past, you were the sucker dressed in total white. You would have been too giving, caring, loving, kind, generous, honest, people always took advantage of you, and you had a very difficult time saying NO to anyone about anything. You would have rather inconvenienced yourself than to say no to someone who asked for your help or assistance in anything.

The current or present you, dressed in orange on the top of your garment and getting close to red on the bottom, is growing into a more confident, stable, secure individual who is able to prioritize better and get goals accomplished in a timely manner. Your foundation color is yellow as shown by your shoes. This means that you will use intelligence, knowledge, practical and analytical thinking as well as logic to counteract much of the compassion and empathy you always show to others. You may still do so, however, it will be tempered in logic and intellectual thought.

Then we progress to the future where you are wearing gold, the Universal Wisdom color, covering the white garment underneath. You have more wisdom, power, universal knowledge and can help others in a spiritual direction. You will be giving much advice and help to those in need. The only concern might be is that you go overboard again and become that sucker with the white underneath. Those blue compassionate and sensitive shoes are still there for you to call upon as your foundation, but it would be better to keep them as a last resort because you are progressing in a very positive direction. You can give out knowledge and power without giving too much of yourself. You must realize that you can give spirituality and knowledge to so many people, but there is a time for balance. Don't go overboard on your help as you have done in the past.

So this is a card about evolving into a different person by learning from your past experiences and making them work for and not against you.
