December 18. Today, the reversed card "Ace of Cups" fell out for you
the reversed card "Ace of Cups" fell out for you
The reversed Ace of Cups sees your emotional energy being stagnant or misdirected. This is why there is no choice between temptation and healing. In fact, whatever presents itself as a soothing, healing balm is likely a temptation that will further clog your emotional well. True healing would require you to first acknowledge and address the internal dam that is blocking your own natural flow of feeling.
The reversed Ace of Cups in love sees the temptation present itself in the form of a connection that is intensely emotional but is fundamentally draining. This temptation promises to fill your cup, but lo and behold - it actually empties it further. True healing would be to turn inward. To sit with the ache of your own unmet needs. To begin the slow work of reopening your own heart.
The upside-down Ace of Cups as a feeling is that hollow ache of emotional deprivation. You feel so thirsty that even muddy water looks appealing. Do you know what this is? This is the core wound masquerading as desire. It is the absence of self-love creating a vacuum that pulls in unhealthy substitutes.
When it comes to a yes or no, the reversed Ace of Cups gives you a blank stare. “No. This is not the path to healing.” The well you are tempted to drink from is poisoned. Drink from it, and you’ll delay your true healing.
