Six of Cups

Cups

Essence

I am the garden of yesterday, still flowering. In my image, a young boy offers a cup filled with flowers to a younger girl in an old village square. The six cups overflow with white blooms - memories that still give sweetness. A guard walks away in the distance - protection withdrawing as innocence is honored. I am the gift of the past to the present, the child within who still knows how to receive wonder.

Upright

Themes: Nostalgia, childhood, innocence, memories, reunion, gifts, simplicity, playfulness, the inner child, sweetness.

I speak with the voice of tender memory. I am about nostalgia, innocence, childhood revisited - not with grief but with sweetness. When I appear, I announce that the past offers gifts. A memory surfaces to heal. Someone from your history returns, or the child within you asks to play. Receive the flowers. **Themes:** Nostalgia, childhood, innocence, memories, reunion, gifts, simplicity, playfulness, the inner child, sweetness.

Reversed

Themes: Stuck in the past, unrealistic nostalgia, lost innocence, needing to mature, childhood wounds, living in memory.

I speak of nostalgia that traps or innocence that must mature. Either you're stuck in the past, unable to grow, or you've lost touch with innocence entirely. My reversed message asks: are you visiting the past or living there? Can you still find your inner child? **Themes:** Stuck in the past, unrealistic nostalgia, lost innocence, needing to mature, childhood wounds, living in memory.
