In the tarot, the chalice is the ace of cups...the symbol of a new beginning, a love affair, a new job, an artistic endeavor. When I was a teen-ager, one million years ago, there was a little game which was popular for a while. The game was a quiz which allegedly was used in psychoanalysis. You are asked to describe a short journey beginning with the question... "You are walking on a path. What does that path look like?" Then you are told you see a cup before you on the path. "What does that cup look like?" etc.
Of course the path is how you perceive your life at the time and the cup... how you perceive love and inspiration. The story goes on with questions about light, a forest and stream and a bear with the last prompt being a wall crossing your path. Wall = death. What do you? Do you climb over the wall, feel defeated... what is on the other side?
It was a great little gimmick to learn early on in my life because it became a way to assess my situations. It is a great insight I think. What kind of cup are you holding right now?
Stay safe everyone and thanks for reading this blog.
