Seven of Cups
The Questing Beast
What a great card! And interesting that it has come ’round again after only ten days.
Would YOU like to suggest (after you renew your acquaintance with the card) what that might imply for today?
This is another card where my interpretation may diverge a tidly, tadly bit from that of other readers.
Some see the Seven of Cups as recommending opening to visions through contemplation. Can’t argue with that, ever, unless you’re trying to cross a busy street against the light.
Anna-Marie Ferguson, creator of the Legend deck, sees this card as betokening – among other things − fantasy, whims or perhaps a bizarre turn of events. Now that would be right up my alley.
I see the Seven of Cups as the card of utter, total complete joy and joyful abandon.
There may be some need to stay at least a bit grounded, so you don’t go completely off into the realm of fantasy in a “Wow, look at all the pretty colors/I’ve become unglued” kinda way.
But this is also the card of Fairy Favors, creativity and clear vision around attaining true desires.
(And because Northeast Ohio is experiencing a thaw, some of the Green Fay Friends may be peeking out at us and causing the card to return just now.)
So go after the joy. Seek it, quest after it, demand it! And for pity’s sake, at least be sure you can actually define what it is − or what it would be, if you had your druthers − for you.
Let yourself renew your belief in and commitment to your happiness, and be open to the myriad magical ways the universe may have to bring it to you. Let yourself be open to surprises and miracles in that regard. And open to a little Fairy Magic today!
Joy! Joy! Joy!
Bright blessings!

Hi, Neal,
Interesting….I gave up meat for lent (beginning yesterday).
This morning I affirmed: I open to a little fairy magic today. And then the magic began….! I felt their energy around Zoie, water from the faucets, my plants, etc. They came to me in my morning reading/ journeywork/writing/ and meditation time. Thank you for the “faery message” and for reminding us about the thinning of the veils. All good and helpful stuff!!
Faery blessings, Donna
