Card of the Week: 10 of Cups
A happy couple stands in front of a rainbow containing ten cups. Their children frolic happily next to them, and their home is in the background.
The Pattern It Reveals
This card may be triggering for some of you. You reflect on this happy family, wondering why this can’t be you. Let’s see how we can close the gap.
Every week, we explore a Tarot card because Tarot is rich in symbology and helps us tap into our intuition. Reflecting on the card and noting what comes to mind is a metaphorical form of brainstorming that can provide insights when problem-solving.
