Well, look what appeared on my card today

Tarot of the Spirit, P Eakins 

Today I've drawn One of Water, or Ace of Cups, from Tarot of the Spirit by Pamela Eakins. You know the other day when I posted about wanting a 'statement ring'? Well, what I've been envisioning is a huge blue stone, just like this card. So of course when I pulled this today, that's the first thing I thought of. It doesn't have to be a 'real' stone, that's not important, it's just the colour I'm after. And now I have symbolism to explain why this big blue stone may have popped into my consciousness.

'At the One of Water, you are open to all possibility,' Eakins writes in the companion book. 'You feel a sense of anticipation, as if something is about to happen. ...Be advised you are now opening to the possibility of jubilance and joy. But, you are also opening to vulnerability. ...This is because, at the One, through your own newfound receptivity, you are beginning to access the deep understanding of Self within you.'

It could be that the ring I envision is a symbol of a new era, a reminder, a token. 'The dark hole is a sparkling jewel at the centre of an unfolding lotus. It is also a cup as viewed from above. The dark opening is a hole. It is whole. It is holy. The significance of the hole is that the more holes you punch in your structure, the more holy you become.' Okay, I have to admit that made me laugh -- puns aren't my thing. But the sentiment is there, and I like it.

Today, may I be open to the possibility of jubilance and joy. And may you be, too. x
