Eight of Cups

LOOKING BACK Yesterday my card of the day is Nine of Cups reversed which indicated disappointment. In one of the podcast of the Tarot Lady she mentioned that in a book Tarot Reversals by Mary K. Greer, reversals carries similar meaning to the upright reading of the preceding card of the deck.  With that in thought, I checked out the interpretation of Galaxy Tarot about the Eight of Cups. KEYWORDS: Spirit quest, leaving behind, taking space, retreat, travel This is a card of letting go and moving on.  Although the retreat indicated by the Eight of Cups is voluntary, it is also painful.

Card of change and transition It shows a man turning his back on all he has accumulated or accomplished before.  He disappears by night into a barren and difficult terrain with only a cloak on his back and a staff on his hand. Question to Ask Myself *  What do I need to leave behind once and for all? *  If I left in search of "more" what would I be looking for exactly? *  How might a retreat enhance my perspective? The Eight of Cups also indicates that you are disappointed enough to walk away from everything you have built up so far. It could indicate a disappointment in love or dissatisfaction with material success. It could also indicate that you have over-extended yourself to the point of emotional exhaustion. Even though you have already come so far, you feel that you can no longer go on and your only choice is to walk away from the situation. You feel disappointed with yourself but you know that this is the right thing to do before you completely b...
