Six of Cups

Memories and innocence.

The image

In an old village courtyard a boy offers a girl a cup full of white flowers; more flower filled cups stand around them.

Keywords: memory, innocence, kindness

Light side

Simple kindness and good memories can soften the present. Reconnecting with your younger self can remind you what you loved.

Shadow side

Nostalgia can become a hiding place. Idealising the past may keep you from living fully now.

Drawing Six of Cups in a game of Leela

In Leela Atlas you can draw a card from the Classic Tarot when you land on a square. A bridging question links the card to the square, so the card speaks to your own question:

• What did you know or love as a child that could help you with this question?
• What does "Six of Cups" show you about your square?
• If "Six of Cups" were advice for your question, what would it say?
• Where do you meet "Six of Cups" in your life right now?
