Drink from the Cup

The Cups Suit is about water. This element relates directly to the heart as a center of emotions and spirituality.

Water flows with gravity and finds it’s way to the ground. It’s incredibly powerful in this insistent path and cuts through rock to create canyons over time.

Our own hearts are the same element. Big feelings can be contained temporarily, but they will carve through to freedom, often becoming a churning eddy that bursts forth when time and circumstance set them loose.

In my experience, this ends up happening at inopportune times. I am so grateful for the stranger on the bus who held my hand while I openly wept. And all the others who were in the right place at the right time to nurture my tears unexpectedly.
