Knight of Cups
Galahad
This fellow showed up for us last July. It’s always a good energy & good advice card.
I think of this as the card of the sacred quest.
[Oh. Yeah. I guess that WOULD be kinda important lately, huh?]
Therefore, if you have been feeling that your life really isn’t going in the direction you and God (or The Universe, the Universal Life Force, the Big Enchilada, Madonna, The Voice of John Cleese, Brangelina – whoever) agreed to before you accepted birth this time around:
HEY! YOU!
Don’t you think it’s time to reconnect and GET GOING?
Some readers might interpret the Knight of Cups as the coming of a messenger, advancement in the world, or a graceful but not warlike person of great masculine energy [think Baryshnikov, I guess. Or George Clooney. Or Brangelina.]. Others could say it indicates someone (maybe you?) ingenious, full of original ideas.
Anna-Marie Ferguson, creator of the Legend deck I use, feels this card betokens a tempting proposal which deserves serious consideration. Also, an approaching opportunity for advancement. Or an unexpected gift. So if something like that crosses your path today, assume you deserve it, accept it fully and gratefully, and run with it!
I still like my intuitive interpretation best.
Think upon the commitments for this lifetime
that you made before you came into being.
Determine the next few steps
to keep you moving along that path –
or the first steps that will be necessary
to move you back onto that path.
And GET GOING!
Bright blessings and remembrance of your sacred self!

“Once upon a time last forever…” I really like that, and plan to do lots of reading to my grandson this coming week. It’s something we both enjoy tremendously.

Can’t wait till he’s old enough to go for Neil Gaiman’s The Graveyard Book.
