I use tarot and oracle cards as tools for reflection and contemplation. Rather than divining the future, they are a way for me to look more deeply at the "now."

Bubbling Cups

From the Tarot of the Cat People, the King of Cups; from the Sacred Geometry Oracle, the Circle:
          Though this King of Cups isn't near water, he holds a bubbling cup and wears a hat that mimics a fountain. Now this king isn't a scientist; he might not know carbon dioxide is formed in champagne by the mixture of yeasts and sugars or that a mixture of vinegar and baking soda will produce the same gas. But he has objectively watched relationships form and dissolve as well as mediated more than his share of dramas. The King of Cups is very familiar with the continuity and repetition of the circle. No matter what side or point someone starts on, they always arrive at the same place eventually. If a person is unhappy in their relationships (romantic or otherwise), it is likely they are walking on that circle and repeating the same behavior over and over again. I imagine he would advise not to spend time trying to figure out the deep psychological source of the problem, but simply see the pattern and do something different.

  1. If you change nothing, nothing will change. Thankfully there are people like this King who can stop our treadmills and give us a new perspective to a situation

    1. But only if we have open ears! :) I think many people just prefer to use others as a vomit bucket - someone to dump the drama on then continue on their way. So maybe the lesson is for the bucket people...

    1. I think that is the classic way of making it bubbly but there are cheaper ways as well (for cheaper brands).

  4. My daily tonic is diet pepsi. The vinegar and soda would be a better choice, but you won't catch me drinking it.
    Too many circles in your cards today. Around and around you go.
