4 of Cups - Lord of Blended Pleasure

Moments of peace

you are likely either experiencing a time of weariness or frustration in material affairs or you are about to experience a transit of this

Season: Summer

Element - water

Astrological association - Moon in Cancer

⍟Upright meaning

you have been hurt in the past and now you protect yourself and instantly reject anyone who is not close to your standards

even if your soulmate come, you wouldn’t recognize his potential

it is time to risk and open up emotionally again

past - recovery or revival in your life - you are likely breaking away from a chapter that you were not enjoying

present - you are being hostile to those around you, needlessly acting stubborn, or ignoring advice from those who have your best interests at heart

future - you have understood past mistakes and will not repeat them again

⍟Reversed meaning

dissatisfaction, you want to change but don’t know what you want

try to express your needs now rather than locking them up

the limbo is temporary, change is always possible

do not worry about life not happening or moving forward for right now there are actions being taken to help better your circumstances

you are coming out of a period of solitude or despondency in a romantic relationship

a celebration of the end of a period of intense isolation

the recent period you suffered of poor energy, and physical and mental drain is over

[thepigeontarot]

Today, you may be feeling a bit conflicted. You have the opportunity to learn. This could be something educational or something spiritual. Someone could help mentor you and guide you in a life transition. But you are not accepting this opportunity. You may be concerned about losing some freedom or about how your past choices may influence this opportunity. You need to realize that if you reject the offer of this transition, then you will remain stagnant where you are. So, you need to make a choice to move forward in your life or keep yourself stuck in the past.

Had to make collage of the cards cause I forgot to take a pic of them all together when I had them out.

Pile 1/Rider-Waite - *Hopes*

The first card to come out was the 5 of Pentacles reversed.  This card is associated with letting go of a fear of loss.  Basically, you’re wanting to leave behind times where you’ve had to be concerned about money and potentially losing things that you need and/or value.

The second card to come out was the Queen of Wands.  This card is associated with confidence, as well as being bold and assertive.  Basically, I feel like this is how you want to be and that these are traits you may need to embrace.

The third card to come out was The High Priestess.  This card is strongly associated with trusting your intuition.  Basically, I feel like you want to trust yourself and your instincts more than you have in the past.

Overall, this pile seems to want to work on themselves and becoming more confident in themselves.

The first oracle card to come out was Expectation - Expect The Best.  Basically, try to hope for the best rather than falling back into old pessimistic thoughts that may be linked to the 5 of Pentacles that you’ve gone through in the past.

The second oracle card to come out was North Node - Step Out Of Your Comfort Zone.  Basically, I feel like this is encouraging you to embrace those Queen of Wands traits and step out of your comfort zone, which will likely help you to grow.  Definitely not an easy thing to do though.

The third oracle card to come out was Free Yourself - It’s Time To Take Back Control Of Your Life.  While this card came from the love deck, I feel like this applies more so just as a general message.  Basically, free yourself from where you’ve been and the concerns you’ve carried.  The fence on this card made me think of the 8 of Swords and more of a mental prison rather than a physical one.  Love-wise, this could be advising you to stay away from people that want to take away your freedom/sense of self.

Pile 2/Teddy *Hopes*

The first thing I noticed about this pile was that all of the tarot cards were Cups.  This suggests emotions are a major part of this pile, which the oracle cards went on to support.

The first card to come out was the 4 of Cups.  This card is associated with being kinda meh.  Not much exciting going on, but nothing really bad either.  The bear lurking behind the tree holding a cup stuck out to me quite a bit, since it made me think of the Knight of Cups and Page of Cups.  This made me think that some of you are wanting someone to offer you something that changes up the norm for you.  This doesn’t necessarily have to be romance-related, but I feel like it is for the majority of you.

The second card to come out was the 9 of Cups.  This card is associated with emotional fulfillment.  You’re happy without having to rely on others to make you happy.  Their may be a bit of loneliness here though, since this bear is alone compared to the 10 of Cups which generally shows a family.  

The third card to come out was the Ace of Cups.  This card is associated with a new emotional beginning.  This cup would also fit with that 9 of Cups to make the 10 of Cups.  I do feel like this does suggest that many of you are hoping for a worthwhile relationship opportunity to come your way.

The first oracle card to come out was Friendship - Care Is There.  Basically, just a reminder that there are people around you that do care about you, especially if you may be feeling lonely or a bit hollow.

The second oracle card to come out was New Moon In Aquarius - Bring Love Into The Situation.  This card can suggest trying a gentler approach to things.  I feel for the majority of you though that this card is simply supporting the fact that many of you are desiring love at this time.

The third oracle card to come out was Attraction - You Attract Romantic Love By Enjoying This Moment Fully.  Basically, I feel like this encourages you to embrace your happiness, which will likely bring you closer to attracting a partner that you desire.

Pile 3/Nightmare Before Christmas *Healing*

The first card to come out was the 5 of Presents reversed, which is basically the 5 of Pentacles in this deck.  This card is associated with letting go of a fear of loss.  Basically, you’re wanting to leave behind times where you’ve had to be concerned about potentially losing things that you need and/or value.  In this case, I think it’s more of situations rather than money that you’re changing your mindset about.

The second card to come out was the 3 of Needles, which is basically the 3 of Swords in this deck.  This card is associated with many negative emotions, including hurt, pain, sadness, and anger.  I feel like these are the emotions that you are experiencing and processing at this time.  While this isn’t a great place to be, it does seem like you are trying to address them rather than shove them down and trying to ignore them.

The third card to come out was the Knight of Needles, which is basically the Knight of Swords in this deck.  This card is associated with taking action on ideas.  Basically, I feel like this is you trying to avoid dwelling on the pain and negatives to try to move forward.  This doesn’t necessarily mean fully committing to any of these pursuits just yet, but testing the waters of possibilities.

The first oracle card to come out was Pounce - Decide To Act.  I feel like this goes with that Knight of Needles and taking action.  The cat on this card looks like a kitten to me rather than a full-grown cat which made me think of baby steps.  Again, just taking small steps of progress even if you feel like you should be doing more.

The second oracle card to come out was New Moon In Leo - Confidence Is Your Key To Success.  Basically, just believe in yourself and your ability to succeed.

The third oracle card to come out was True Love - This Is A Romance Of A Lifetime.  This had actually come out reversed, which made me feel like some of you had what you thought was a ‘true love’ not work out which is what has caused this 3 of Needles.  Others of you, I feel like this is the type of love that you are hoping for.

Pile 4/Chubby Bun *Healing*

The first card to come out was the 8 of Pentacles reversed.  This has to do with changing things up.  

The second card to come out was the Knight of Pentacles.  This has to deal with focusing on the details and being very thorough.  This isn’t a very fast-paced card and doesn’t rush things.

The third card to come out was the Hanged Bunny reversed, which is basically the Hanged Man in this deck.  This card is associated with having gotten stuck in how you’ve viewed a situation.  There may be a stubbornness with this card that contributed to this stuckness.  I do feel like this is what you’re healing from and why those other two card are what you’re doing to get unstuck.

The first oracle card to come out was Instigator - Gotta Start Something.  I get more of the gotta start something aspect of this more than the instigator aspect of this card.  Basically like an antsy feeling that pushes you to need to change that perspective that you had gotten stuck in.

The second oracle card to come out was Blue Moon - Believe In The Impossible.  Basically, believe that the impossible is possible for you.  I feel like this is believing that things can be better or change by these changes and steps that you are making.

The third oracle card to come out was Reconciliation - Someone From Your Past Is Returning To Your Life.  While this is a love card, I do feel like it could be outside of love too and just a general making amends with someone.  This card had also come out reversed, which may suggest that some of you had issues with a reconciliation attempt, possibly due to being unable to look at it another way.  That isn’t necessarily a bad thing though since some reconciliations aren’t for the best.

Pile 5/Disney Villains *Hopes*

The first card to come out was the 10 of Cups.  This card is associated with happy and healthy connections in your life.  Many versions of this card display a family on them, which suggests that many of you may desire a family of some sorts.  

The second card to come out was the Ace of Cups.  This card is associated with new emotional beginnings.  Basically, I feel like you want a new emotional offer with the potential to grow into that 10 of Cups.  This may be a new close friendship or romantic relationship.  

The third card to come out was the Knight of Wands reversed.  This card was odd to see with these cards to me.  Reversed, this knight isn’t the greatest to see in a love-type read like this.  This is someone that can be non-committal and kind of flaky.  Possibly like a player type of person or something like that.  There are two main ways that I could see this applying.  The first being that this is the type of person you usually are attracted to (or someone in particular that you’re attracted to) and you hope that they’ll change or have it in them to offer what you want.  The other is that this is you and you’ve generally been disinterested in serious relationships and settling down, but have begun changing that mindset a bit.  I feel like it is the latter option for most of you.

The first oracle card to come out was Curiosity - Worth The Risk.  Basically, something that you’re curious about is worth the risk.  This also is what leads me to believe that the Knight of Wands reversed from before generally represents you with a relationship being what you’re curious about.

The second oracle card to come out was Full Moon In Aries - A Fiery Climax Approaches!  This does suggest that something will come to an end soon for you.

The third oracle card to come out was Love Yourself First - Your Self-Respect Makes You More Romantically Attractive.  Basically, value yourself and know your worth.  This may involve not going for the typical reversed Knight of Wands type if that is who you generally go for.

Basic bitch tarot tip of the week: feeling stagnant? Shuffle your deck, setting the intentions for this quick one card reading. Find the four of cups in your deck. The card behind it is what opportunity you are not seeing. If you want to add to it, the card before the four of cups is the root cause of the stagnation.

4 of Cups - Kamelion in The King's Demons

[tarotbycecelia]

Card of the Day - 4 of Cups - Friday, November 10, 2023

You are being encouraged today to hold out for what you truly want, rather than lowering your standards. It is all-too easy to be accepting of less-than desirable conditions and ultimately winding up in a rut, asking yourself how this came to happen. Being picky does have its drawbacks, but within a proper perspective, it can work in your favor today. Remember, right now things you choose could…

Are your thoughts sometimes stuck in a dead end

Do you sometimes act out of spite even though you'd know better

Hello! I dont know if free readings are still open, if they aint its perfectly fine, but I just discovered your blog so I dont know :) If I may ask you, may I get a reading (make it as long or short as you like), to what I need to know right now? I`ve been getting so many signals today but I`m really not sure as to what they may be. Some of the signs shown were moths and the 8 of wands so I get this feeling that something might be rushing in soon (?) or Im not seeing things. Thank you very much in advance.

Hi! It definitely gets frustrating trying to interpret signs when they aren't super clear. I went ahead and did some different oracle cards with the tarot.

Tarot

The first card to come out was The World. This suggests something getting completed in your life. This is generally something fulfilling, since you've been putting effort into it. Perhaps this completion/accomplishment comes quicker than you were previously expecting.

The second card to come out was the 3 of Pentacles. This is associated with working with others towards a goal. If you aren't already working with others on something, an opportunity to do so may come up soon. If it isn't necessarily working with them, it may be a bit of friendly competition/rivalry with someone.

The third card to come out was the 2 of Pentacles. This has to do with balancing your responsibilities and priorities, possibly due to things getting a bit busier for you. It could also simply be re-examining what's most important to you and how much time/effort you devote to different things. This could be partially due to Libra season and the balance aspect of things.

Under the deck was the 4 of Cups. This is generally a kinda meh feeling, so things may have been kinda unexciting lately (which seems like it'll start to change with that World card). This card also involves not being super impressed with what is being offered to you, so you may not be wanting to take on any offers that are coming forward (likely if they don't fit into what matters to you with that 2 of Pentacles).

Oracles

The first oracle card you got was Ull - Ambition & Competitiveness. This does suggest that there may be some competition going on around you (or that it'll be coming up), likely in that 3 of Pentacles situation. I don't get the feeling that it is necessarily bad competition though and that it may be something that kinda motivates you, possibly creating a spark that you may have been missing with that 4 of Cups.

The next oracle card that you got was Wild Cat - You Never Know What's Lurking. I feel like this basically suggests that there is something unexpected coming up for you, but it doesn't really say what it is.

The next oracle that you got was Thor - Be Sure Of Foot & Steady Of Heart. Basically, this card encourages you to trust yourself and the choices you make. This may require examining what you're working on to make sure that it aligns with what feels right to you.

The next oracle card that you got was There's Nothing To Worry About. Basically, trusting that a situation will work out and trying not to stress about it too much - which definitely isn't easy. This is likely connected to that World card.

The next oracle card that you got was Cupid. This could suggest a bit of an openness to love. This doesn't necessarily mean a relationship coming up and could simply be finding a new love for a hobby or something. On the card it talks about awakening your love for life itself, so it's likely more along those lines rather than a new romance.

Weekly Tarot!  Feb 06 - Feb 12, 2023

Cards of the Week: 2 of Cups, 4 of Cups and 6 of Cups reversed ✧☾゜・。

This week’s theme is emotional integration.

⋆𓆩✧𓆪⋆ Maybe it’s just hard to see what’s right in front of you when you’re frantically searching for it. -Susane Colasanti. ⋆𓆩✧𓆪⋆

As the full moon still shines brightly in the sky as I write this, the cards show that it’s effects will still play out throughout the week, and the possibility of finding joy and happiness through connecting with other people will be the main theme this week. However, there seems to be disappointment along with this energy.

With the joyful and dreamy energy of last week’s reading, we may have committed the mistake of falling into our own illusions. Dreams are good for they are clear representations of our goals, and with their beauty they inspire us to chase them and ground them into reality, but losing ourselves in them by not appreciating our current reality is dangerous, for it can make us reject the beauty of what we already possess.

This week there’s a sense that certain job opportunities, love interests, and personal journeys are not going the way we’ve planned, leaving us with emotional turmoil, disillusionment and sadness. So we’re being asked to bring a positive outlook into our lives, and in the process reconnect with the beauty that it’s both within ourselves and in the world around us: by keeping a joyous gaze through life, we are able to turn a disappointing situation into a divine possibility.

Also, since this week there’s a big prevalence of the cups suit, there’s an emphasis on our emotions. Following your intuition and your heart is the correct way to navigate this week, as well as embodying generous and gentle energy with others and ourselves; and if you´ve been feeling sad or distressed, allow yourself to cry and feel everything you’ve been bottling up in your heart.

This week by loving and nurturing both ourselves and others, we’ll be able to see that there’s beauty in everything that surrounds us, liberating us from the chains of material pursuits and romanticized falsehoods and delivering us into emotional bliss.

The week starts with moon in Magha. The moon at the development of the South Node, Ketu, makes today and the rest of the week especially good for magical practices, astral travel, ancestral veneration, and the creation of lasting routines that lead to blossoming success and power! This moon gives us the enough fire and power to attain whatever we desire, as long we don’t become too detached from our reality.

☾ Blessings: Gentleness and generosity that allow us to attain blessings! Even if we´re feeling down, by being kind to others, we’re able to heal ourselves and our surroundings, bringing enough harmony that attracts divine opportunities.

☾ Warnings: Beware of your own mind and emotions. This week we are our worst enemies, so try your best to not believe the lies that you tell yourself, especially if those lies belittle or diminish you in some way.

☾ Random messages/tips:

The path of the heart and emotions is the right path to follow this week.

If it doesn’t feel right, don’t do it.

As we drive along this road called life, occasionally a gal will find herself a little lost. And when that happens, I guess she has to let go of the “coulda”, “shoulda”, “woulda”, buckle up and just keep going. -Carrie Bradshaw

333

Stay away from any kind of escapism of reality, whether they are video games or drugs. Staying present in the moment is important this week.

Overthinking is your enemy, don’t let fear guide you.

Salvatore by Lana del Rey

Bring yourself into the present moment, and be open to receive generosity when it appears.
