About :

Nine of Cups – Happiness

With Nine of Cups – reflection and imagination – inside of the perfect harmony of the Nine.  The card shows perfect harmony and fulfilment in any emotional matter.

On its shadow site, the card shows the risk of self-indulgence and complaisance, the temptation to just enjoy the happiness but forget the reflection that keeps the light upon the waters alive.

On a day which is ruled by the Lord of Happiness, we need only open ourselves to the infinite blessings of the Universe, and we will be surrounded by warm happy loving energy. At its highest level, this card reminds us of the completely inexhaustible supply of love that flows continuously about us, and tells us to simply step forward and enjoy!

In the hurly burly of modern life it’s easy to forget to count our blessings. And in so doing, we lose sight of a very basic spiritual truth – love IS all around us. Beauty springs up in the most unexpected places. Radiance and wonder abound in this world of ours.

Yes – sure, there’s a lot of pain out there too. Sure, not everything may be as we wish it to be. Sure, we might hear a news report that does not fill us with faith and belief in the race.

But we can look up to the sky….and there (no matter what the weather) we will see an image of pure perfection. We can study a flower, and we will see a miracle. We can look at our lives and be thankful for all the things that we’re glad are present in it.

And we can do this with an open heart – no doubts, no yes-buts, no compromises. When we do this, we fill our souls with the color of wonder. We touch the dreaming parts of us. And once filled, those secret silent places can feed us strength when we confront ugliness or cruelty.
