Knight of Cups: What is Your Ideal Perfection?

Knight of Cups Tarot Card- Be okay with disappointment, because it happens in life.

Today is a day to tap into your ideal of perfection and set that as your goal. Think about what you would really like to see materialize, especially as it pertains to the matters of your heart. Picture perfection. Imagine everything turning out exactly as you would like it to. Now work towards making that happen. Be careful though, in this process of creating too strong of an emotional connection to any particular outcome. Aim for perfection, but be willing to bend on what that perfection looks like.

Often, when it comes to emotions, we expect an outcome, but are co-creating this outcome with others who have their own ideas about how they want things to be. Their way may not be the same as your way, so their is a potential for upset or disappointment. Be prepared for that. If you can hope for the best, but be willing to accept that best in different forms than you first imagined, you will become a master of life on earth. Today is the day to focus on that. This is what the Knight of Cups has for you today.

7 of Cups: Head in the Clouds, For Now

7 of Cups Tarot Card: Put your head in the clouds and your feet on the ground

The 7 of cups tarot card invites you stick your head in the clouds and explore different possibilities. This is especially helpful when you are looking for an innovative solutions. Sometimes you need to really think outside of the box and be as fantastical in your search for a solution as possible. When there is no obvious and apparent solution, what else can you do? You have to go above and beyond and way, way out there in your search for a workable solution.

To do this, you need to explore all the possibilities, even the ones that seem to be based in fantasy. But there will come a time, though, when you need to grasp a potential solution and actually do something with it. You can’t keep your head in the clouds forever dreaming about what might be. You need to come back down to earth, stand on your own two feet root in, get grounded, and apply the solution you found. You can’t expect that everything will take care of itself on its own.

No, sticking your head in the clouds to find innovations is only part of the process. You also have to do the work based on the solutions you found. So do that. Put in the work. Make the effort. Get the ball rolling and make things happen. This is what the 7 of cups is reminding you of today.

The Sun: Soak in It

The Sun Tarot Card: Take advantage of the sun when it is shining

the sun tarot card
Voyager Tarot Sun Card

We need to take advantage of the sun when it shines, because it doesn’t always. The sun can go behind the clouds and stay there for days, weeks sometimes. The sun can disappear like this sometimes, leaving us feeling despondent and weak. The sun fuels us. Its rays make feel good, happy alive. Not that we can’t feel these things when the sun is behind the clouds, mind you, but when the sun is shining, it is so much nicer, so much easier to feel the positive effects of it.

So when the sun is shining, soak it in. When the conditions are right in your life today to enjoy something great, something good, something that brings happiness to you, don’t squander it. You don’t know ow long it will last. Soak it in so it stays with yo. Enjoy it in the moment. Appreciate it. The Sun card of tarot reminds you of this day. Appreciate feeling god and alive.

9 of Cups: Accept That Anything Is Possible

9 of Cups Tarot Card

9 of Cups Tarot Card: Miracles can and do happen. Expect them.

The 9 of cups tarot card, today, invites you to expect miracles. Miracles can and do happen. Sometimes, you need to just get out of your own and let them. You stay in your own way when you have doubts. Maybe there is something you really want. This thing, be it tangible or abstract, would make a huge difference to you. But something about it seems impossible. It doesn’t seem attainable. It seems too far removed from the realm of possibilities for you, so you automatically dismiss the notion that you could ever actually have it. Since you just assume you can never have, you are blocking the idea that, maybe you can have it. So stop assuming these things are out of reach.

Accept that anything is possible, and everything is within the sphere of actualization. Why limit yourself? Aim high. Aim big. Imagine the greatest, most fantastical outcome for yourself, then dismiss any notions of doubt that say you can’t have it. This is what the 9 of cups tarot card is inviting you to do today.

And then it did. and now you are getting used to the peace again. The 5 of swords is like that. It’s about accepting peace. So ask yourself, what outdated conflicts are you holding onto?

6 of Cups: Dream Again

6 of Cups Tarot Card: Get back to your dreams

The 6 of Cups tarot card today, is inviting you to go within and find your inner child. Find your inner child, and bring him/her to the surface with you. Your inner child has much to offer you in terms of acceptance, understanding and love. Find that piece of yourself that remembers knowing exactly what it wanted from life, before life got too serious. Remember what it was like to look towards the future, and to fill that future with unlimited dreams and potential.

Before life gets too serious, it is so easy to imagine the greatest things possible for what will be. It is only when the demands of day to day life add up to reality that these dreams begin to fade. Before long, our imaginings evaporate as we live with what is actual and real. So today, use the 6 of cups as your guide and find that imaginative side of yourself. Bring it to the surface of who you are and remember what those dreams were. Reignite those ambitions. See where reality forced you to veer away from those dreams, and then endeavor to backtrack. See if you can’t put yourself back on the course to them.

Maybe those dreams of old are no longer what you desire. If that is case, let them remind yourself that once you did have dreams, and you still can. What are your new dreams? Remind yourself that you can dream, and dreams are a potential reality. Find a path to this reality that you desire for yourself.
