The Eight of Cups…

Magic is on your horizon this weekend, but to find it you may have to journey off of your current path and away from the familiar. In fact, you may find yourself saying goodbye to something or someone that is not fulfilling your current expectations. Walking away is also walking toward, my friends. Don’t forget it. I was struck by the ladybug on this version of the card. I found this little piece of lore online regarding ladybugs, “If a ladybug is held in the hand while making a wish, some believe the direction that it flies away shows from where your luck will come.” This weekend, be the ladybug. Don’t wait for your wish, when you find yourself yearning for something different or something more. Walk in the direction of your luck. Follow the unknown path toward a greater existence, venturing away from the idea of fulfillment and toward the realization of your dreams. Take it one step at a time until you are ready to spread your wings and fly.

"Ladybugs all dressed in red, strolling through the flower bed. If I were tiny just like you, I'd creep among the flowers too!”- Maria Fleming
