Oracle: 5 of Cups
Jun. 2nd, 2007 07:28 pmThis afternoon I did a reading on the question "Where do we go from here?"
The card I pulled was the 5 of Cups. In this deck, the card shows Pan and a crescent crowned woman in the foreground next to a stream, and a ghostly stag leaping in the background. Immediately I thought of
_storyteller_ and myself, with Lohain's spirit in the background -- present, but not part of the interaction between the other two.
Traditionally, 5-Cups shows a mourning figure with three spilled cups before him and two filled cups behind. It's a warning to not allow grief and loss, however real and intense, to blind you to what you still have.
It is a lesson I intend to take to heart.
