Romance, Love Or Relationships:
You may be feeling as though you want to end your long-term relationship if you are in one. Pulling The reversed Eight of Cups warns that you will be best off to give this some more time and thought. Sometimes when we are challenged in relationships, the difficult parts are the parts that we need to stay with. Yes, you might ultimately end up leaving. But do so when you are very, very sure, and calm, and clear-headed, and not before. If you are looking for love, this is a time to get engaged with the world in whatever way you can. Do not stay home and feel lonely. Go make someone feel better, and your loneliness will dissolve in a flash.

The Lord of Indolence arises when energy is blocked, and where it is beginning to stagnate. This is, obviously, a nasty and potentially dangerous situation which must be addressed if it is to be cleared out of the way. You may, though, feel tired and apathetic about challenging issues which seem too big or too stubborn to deal with. If you are currently feeling quite trapped by life, then today is a day where you can make a profound difference to the way things around you are affecting you. Target one area which is taking more energy from you than it gives back. Think through your reactions and responses to this situation. Consider whether you’re tending to slide a bit toward feeling like a victim – don’t judge this, just consider it. If you judge something that sensitive, you will become defensive, and therefore be unable to tackle the problem properly. If you, after analysis, decide that you are contributing to the difficulty, then you have it in your power to simply refuse to worsen it with a negative attitude. Tackle the affirmation with great gusto! That should shift your own blockages.
If, on reflection, you feel that the problem is not yours, but somebody else’s, the first thing you need to do is refuse to react by giving more energy. Just stop. For this day, refuse to play the game. And do the affirmation! That should cause some shift, if only in your own approach. Finally, if you feel you do not have any major problems today, then consider the whole energy exchange that is the sum total of your life. Assess things realistically. Ensure that there are no areas of leakage. If there are, then consider what you can do. If there aren’t, congratulate yourself for living your life in accordance with the dance of the Universe!!

Tarot Card Meanings: Eight of Cups; In relation to our emotional lives this suggest that we have a strong foundation but are searching for a deeper connection. It can indicate marriage or a change within a relationship. Reversed; this suggests disappointment in an established relationship.
Portable Magic: Westcott was being rather daring in making veiled reference to the Tarot when commenting in his note on the correct arrangement of the seven planets on the Double letters, since this arrangement, which he does not reveal, was undoubtedly a secret communicated to him by Mathers, and not intended for the ears or eyes of the uninitiated. Westcott’s edition of Sqher Yetzirah was published one year before the establishment of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, so it is evident that Mathers psychically received the ordering of the planets on the Double letters before the founding of the Golden Dawn, but probably not much prior to its founding.

Portable Magic: with enough cards a point is reached when it collapses into chaos. Three cards of realization are about the maximum that can be used effectively. It is impossible to hold three cards in the mind at once, but they can be considered successively, as a series of actions leading to the final achievement of the ritual purpose.
