Let Them Runneth-Over Anyway — by Michelle Embree 12/20/22

When the Ten of Cups shows itself in the form of a warning or a cautionary tale, we should just listen. 

What it takes to feel satisfied now is different than what it took yesterday. Maybe you need more of something, maybe less of this and that, but change in the balance of happiness is imminent.

A recent conversation about allowing our Cups to spill, comes to mind.

Just let them spill, let them run over, or dump them out deliberately.

Ten empty cups are tied to a string, bouncing off one another in the breeze. They hang tied between branches in a willow tree out on an inlet that goes dry every day. Sea water flowing in, resting long, then back out to make the ocean, like your worst or favorite lover. These Cups hang where you walk the edge and they are happily, stunningly empty.

What has been a blessing shifts form. What has been ideal, finds new needs. The Cups spill and growth is fostered by way of nourishment and conscious effort. Acknowledgment is succor, the first balm applied. Use it before the Tower appears from cracks in your floorboards.

Be active in filling new cups.

Where you left

The past will be lost in ways you didn’t see coming. But the potential to lock eyes with something you are going to want very much is imminent or already showing a fulfilling promise.
