The Ace of Cups ~ An Open Heart!

Tarot Tuesday! The card for the week is The Ace of Cups, representing: Emotional rebirth, beginnings, unconditional love and forgiveness. Aces symbolize fresh starts and turning points. Cups are the realm of water—feelings, emotions, love and the soul—indicating a time to let go of the past and open your heart to new experiences.

You could look at the Ace of Cups as a spiritual and emotional cleanse. The energy here is pure and unadulterated, like fresh spring water. Clear, unclouded and completely transparent. There is no old emotional baggage that you need to carry forward. Ultimately, the Ace of Cups is Love in its purest form—it is unconditional love for self and for others.

This card holds the possibility of a major heart chakra opening, and this week consider doing heart based rituals, to release old stuck emotions, regrets, shame—whatever is holding you back from experiencing greater love in your life. Rose quartz is a heart and love stone, and could be useful in your meditations. This is also a time to ask yourself if you are truly willing to receive new love in your life. And if your willing to share your gift of love with others.

When I drew this card, I couldn’t help but think of the Orlando tragedy. Like you, I’m heart-broken and in shock. But at the same time, this card is a reminder of the transformative energy of forgiveness. That at the end of the day, unconditional Love can and will conquer any darkness. You just have to stay present to it’s possibilities.

This week, be a conduit for love! Hug your neighbor, your friend, your foe. Be generous and kind, because at the end of the day We are all One.
