‘She was never bored because she was never being boring.’ – Pet Shop Boys

EXPERIENCING the Tarot 4 OF EMOTIONS
Hum-drum. She sits in a giant energetic cup – her fourth cup – her best cup – but whenever she counts her blessings she only sees three. Other people have told her she needs four to be happy. Other people have four goblets that she can clearly see. And here she is, stuck in a life of having only three. She sighs, hoping she will someday find a fourth. She closes her eyes and asks the Muse to help her find her magic blessings. No answer. Nothing but the waves. She relaxes, giving up the quest for now, and quiets her mind as she listens to the waves lap up against…. lap…. lap.. lap…. what is it that they are lapping up against? She hears giggles in the distance. The Muse laughs and bubbles, and she changes the sunlight just a little… just enough to clearly illuminate the fourth cup in the glistening rays. ‘Daughter, you are the fourth cup. You are the blessing. You are living within your own blessing, you just need to change your perspective to see it. Enter the deep, and you will find all the whispers of love and joy you will ever need.’
“I would rather die of passion than of boredom.” – Vincent van Gogh
PATHWORKING
VISUALIZATION
Enter the invisible cup from the 4 of Emotions and spend time meditating on what things in your life are creating this barrier of vision. What holds you back from seeing your potential? Your possibility? Your light? When you are ready, take a dive down into the cavern below and see what treasures you find.
CREATIVE PROMPT
What kind of goblet of blessings are you? Create your own goblet of emotional joy by grabbing a photo of yourself from the side, and trace out your profile. Trace once facing left and once facing right, and then bring the two sides together to see your cup of Spirit.
