Hey everybody, it's Anna. Time for a new tarot story this week.
We start with the Wednesday card and for that we have the knight of cups. So the knight is the action taker of the court cards and also the energy associated with the mind. The mind is the human part of ourselves that is the strategizer, the one taking action steps in the world. Cups are connected to the hearts. They're about feeling connected to other people, emotionally fulfilled, as well as being like grounded in our intuitive genius.
So, I always call this the lover knight because he's walking into the world. He's got his cup in front of him as though he's carrying his heart on his sleeve and he's ready to evoke beauty everywhere he goes. He's in love with the world. He's in love with love. Right? This is the writer of poems, the singer of songs, the one who picks flowers and is searching for his lady love.
So, this when it's showing upright, it suggests to me that we're being invited to let our heart be free in the world to be free to take action steps. This means our mind is agreeing to carrying our heart in the world in a way that's exposed and vulnerable and free to flow.
So um this is also sometimes considered the doniote card because it's like he's looking for beauty. He sees beauty. Even where other people don't see beauty, he sees beauty. This is uh you know kind of he's almost intoxicated with the world around him. He sees magic everywhere.
So consider where where you might be needing to release this energy more in the world. This means we're not being logical. This is not a knight on a quest to be impressive or to fight any battles. He's his only quest is to is to express love in the world.
So consider how your heart might be needing action steps to back it up. Like let's say there's something you really feel like you want to do. You want to express yourself in a certain way, but your mind's being logical or linear or or saying, you know, being protective. This knight is a brave, this is a really bold and brave knight because he's willing to be vulnerable in the world. And vulnerability is probably the greatest threat to the mind. So getting the mind to agree to this is a big deal.
So consider where your mind might be with holding back from this, where it's hesitant about this. See if you can solve and answer some of the questions your mind might have so that it can agree to carrying this energy in the world, letting this sort of love flow.
And um yeah, I think the rest of the spread is going to be really interesting because I think it it's all about kind of learning how to live in this place of of letting your heart be free and expressing itself in the world. That's today's card. See you tomorrow for our next one.
