pick a card tarot reading: your wound 🤍

study the images. which one are you drawn to most?

left to right -

pile one: seven of cups

you are a very loving person. you are also 'naive' because of it. you are so loving and pure that people take advantage of that. there's so many snakes in your past, present, and future. you've got this golden energy and snakes love that the most. you are their prey. but in the end, you win. because you are so pure. 💓

pile two: three of cups

your friends are your biggest wound. it's hard for you to fit in. it's hard for you to make friends who are on your wavelength. but just because it's been difficult, does not mean it will never happen. bullying is not okay. people disrespecting you and speaking down to you is not okay. keep your head up + wrap yourself in your arms. shower love upon yourself, sweet one 💕

Seven of Cups: Adegast Tempting Luz

Upright: Choices, opportunities, wishful thinking, illusion, fantasy, daydreaming, indecision, searching for purpose

Reversed: Confusion, distraction, diversion, overwhelmed, clarity, personal alignment, making a choice

The Seven of Cups is the card of choices and opportunities, but also illusion and wishful thinking. It represents a moment where you're faced with a myriad of different options for the future, each seeming more exciting than the last—though you must be careful what you wish for, because all that glitters is not gold. The Seven of Cups may suggest your expectations for the future aren't grounded in reality, and that you're prone to wishful thinking and unrealistic ideals. This is exactly the situation in which Luz finds herself in Witches Before Wizards: she's followed the pipe-dream adventure Adegast set up for her, playing masterfully into her preconceived notions of being a fantasy protagonist, unknowing that she's being led by illusions straight into a trap.

The Seven of Cups reminds you that while wishing and dreaming are all well and good, there comes a time where you need to let go of your fantasies and face reality. Luz does exactly this by choosing Eda and King over Adegast's puppets, breaking free from the fantasy illusion and saving them both. This is Luz's first step on her journey of deconstructing her fantasy-hero complex and maturing into a more grounded person whose actions are guided not by unrealistic fantasies, but by her personal values and convictions.

Seven of Cups. ​Art by Alexandria Huntington, from The Children of Litha. 

[ninelivesastrology]

The Seven of Cups is a watching/stalking card, too. I usually see it in the context of social media (think Instagram stories) because social media really brings out an array of feelings in people, hence the seven Cups, but this can transcend social media. I do think the seven Cups can correspond to the Seven Deadly Sins, but more importantly, this card corresponds to the third Decan of Scorpio which is ruled by Venus, planet of love and relationships.

Scorpio is a sign that signifies deception, betrayal, criminal behavior, often showing up when there's something underhanded going on. I look at this card and I'm always drawn to how fixated the person is. Even if you take it as you're the person looking in on the person with their back to you, you come to a similar conclusion.

So I do think the Seven of Cups can really talk about those fixations and compulsions another person has towards you, the desire to be close (Venus) and Scorpio is the detriment of Venus, so it's awry.
