From Hadar's Le Veritable Tarot de Marseille, the Knight of Cups; from the Greek Rune Tiles, Zeta:
Man is a messenger who forgot the message.
~Abraham Joshua Heschel
The Hadar's LWB reminded me that this knight is a messenger of love (note the covering of his chalice is off). He's not there to make a marriage commitment, he's there to remind people that they are loved no matter what. Such a difference that could make in people's lives if they knew someone (or even the Universe) cared about them deeply! Zeta can represent vorticity, the measure of rotation in fluid or air. That rotation can lead to a dust-devil or a tornado, depending on its power. Similarly, our messages of kindness and compassion often have power fueled by our sincerity (as opposed to doing it out of obligation or wanting to look good). As Mother Teresa said:
Speak tenderly to them. Let there be kindness in your face, in your eyes, in your smile, in the warmth of your greeting. Always have a cheerful smile. Don't only give your care, but give your heart as well.
We are somewhat on the same page(knight). The giving of time is a good way to spend our minutes, hours, days.
