One of the truly wonderful things about being alive is that it allows us access to a wealth of different emotions – of course, we sometimes wish it didn’t, particularly when we are hurting – yet this hugely flexible resource of response is one of our most valuable treasures. The Lord of Pleasure is about learning how to enter into pleasure with an open heart which is ready to receive, and freely allow the passage of emotion through it. Too often, we fail to enter the moment, and instead, stand on the threshold of life. This card challenges us to cross that threshold, and flow with the river of love which is always available to us. So on a day ruled by the Lord of Pleasure, we have to consider what pleasures us (and don’t shy away from your own sexuality!!). Today, you need to make a point of taking the time to give yourself up to pleasure, however you define it. (In my mind’s eye, I see certain of our company reaching eagerly for the chocolate bar whilst repeating, like a mantra, the words “Oh thankyou …thankyou…” 😉
It is a truism that there is violence, anger and mean-spiritedness in the world. Certainly there is enough of this, but there is also much good will and caring. A mother hands a drink to her child. A friend lends his car for the weekend. A worker fills in for a sick colleague. Small gestures, barely noticed, but so important. The Six of Cups is a card of simple goodness. It encourages you to be kind, generous and forgiving. And there’s a little exercise I’d like you to take time out to do as well. Sit down comfortably, and relax. Pay special attention to opening out your chest area. Now concentrate on your breathing……feel it flowing in and out of your body……feel it cool, and refreshing. Now each time you draw in breath, draw in love as well…. Connect with the all-embracing, infinite, unconditional love that flows through life in each and every day…..and enjoy!!!!!

Tarot Card Meanings: Six of Cups; an excellent card suggesting friendship and love, usually relating to the home and family. Rekindling old friendships is also associated with this card. Reversed; the same meaning is usually applied in this case.
Tarot Triumphs: Tarot, in the light of the triumphal procession, may be seen as an act of theater, its images a kind of magical performance moving through the sequence of the cards. We can turn this historical link with the triumphal processions to our advantage, and use the context imaginatively, as a way of discovering the kind of impact that these magnificent Tarot Triumphs could have when paraded through the streets.

Reversed Cards: The Lovers card is connected to the zodiac sign of Gemini, the twin aspects of the self. This sun sign reminds us that the longest relationship we will ever have in this physical journey is the one with ourselves. And here in the retrograde aspect, we get to take a look at how we have been honoring this lifelong love affair. As we move backward from the Lovers, we get to take a closer look at the conditions that shaped where we now stand. You see, every card leading up to the Lovers has taught it how love works. The journey thus far has shaped and molded how you love yourself and how you allow love to be shared from your heart to someone else. So as you allow the twins to retrograde you through these modeling influences, do your best to stay detached. Because in this backward movement is a gift, a gift that once unwrapped will allow you to start healing those pesky broken pieces of your heart.
