COTD - 9 of Cups/Lights (Fenestra & Dante)


Ah, the "wish card"; when I drew this card this morning I could hear Elvis' voice singing a line from Love Me Tender "all my dreams fulfill". I smiled just thinking about it. This card just gives me a sense of emotional fulfillment and integration. The joy is part of the everyday and everything just becomes more special and meaningful.
The Dante LWB offers this meaning "The fixed stars: Happy union; harmony within the family, between friends, or within companies." Looking at this image, the figure hovering in the air above the constellations reminds me of some cosmic conductor. I get the sense that happiness and harmony is in the stars today.
I think that drawing this card created a self-fulfilling prophecy in my mind today. I expected to be happy and special and it was. It wasn't over the top or amazing, just a simple, joyful and fun day with friends. We drove to a workshop being offered by Rachel Pollack so we got to spend time with each other and see Rachel. All in all, quite a fun day.
Whether I primed myself to look for the happy, joyful and emotionally fulfilling today or whether it would have been a wonderful day even if I didn't draw this card, I can't be sure. Either way it was a fun day and the card just helped to highlight that.
