CARDS OF THE DAY: February 11, 2022

Queen of Cups and Two of Pentacles

Neo Tarot

by Jerico Mandybur with art by Daiana Ruiz

February 11, 2022: I so love the figures in Neo Tarot, their graceful dynamism. So here are two drawn for your day:

One, the Queen of Cups, carefully balances a goblet constructed of four disparate parts while holding a big orange ball steady beneath one firmly-planted foot. Two serene Black cherubs hover above, eyes closed in prayer.

The other--the figure in the Two of Pentacles--prances forward while expertly juggling two pentacle-balls in a figure-eight pattern, the energy of eternal motion.

Cups symbolize, among other things, human feelings, and pentacles can represent practicalities.

Looking at these two cards--with their two cherubs and two pentacle/juggling balls--I'm thinking about that expression: "Feelings are not facts."

But sometimes our feelings (Cups) really are facts (Pentacles) that need acknowledgement and acceptance as such. Know when this is true. Respect the Queen--of your feelings--and learn how to juggle, alternate, balance, and work with these feelings in a safe, fruitful way.

They are dynamic and changeable, and you can make exciting magic out of them, if you juggle them just right. The cherubs bring tender affirmation to your project or situation and heal any sense of doubt or defeat you might be harboring.

The act of walking or dancing moves us out of and into balance and out of and into balance again--does it not?--step after step. The act of motion or dancing in a wheelchair opens up new spaces to be and express. Everyday magick.

We move to claim something new and be something new.

Let's dance!
