The Universe is persistently trying to teach you this lesson
September 12. Today, the card "Five of Cups" fell out for you
the card "Five of Cups"
The Five of Cups is not here to punish you. It is here to teach you a lesson that is long overdue. Your grief, the card insists, is not a sign of failure. It is a necessary process to make space. The card hates your fixation on what is lost. It wants you to finally see what remains standing. No, the lesson is not to avoid sorrow. It is to stop letting it monopolize your vision.
In love, the Five of Cups has a bitter lesson to teach. The card says that not every connection is meant to be permanent. Besides, mourning an ended relationship is natural. But refusing to turn around and see that love is still available is not. Now is the time you finally heed the Universe’s urge to stop cherishing the “what could have been.” There are connections that exist here and now - how about you finally acknowledge them?
The Five of Cups in career sees you being way too preoccupied with missed opportunities and rejected proposals. The lesson here is painfully obvious: your resilience is not about avoiding disappointment. It’s about refocusing on the skills, relationships, and opportunities still intact. Again, the Universe urges you to let go of lament and get a grip on strategy.
The Five of Cups as a feeling is the unbearable weight of nostalgia. It is the bittersweet memories that bring more pain than comfort. The card sees you gravitate toward the familiar ache and urges you not to see it as an enemy. Instead, it wants you to see it as a teacher.
