Eight of Cups

 

Sometimes we have to make the hardest decision at some point in a situation. Do we keep fighting or do

we turn our backs and walk away. It is a form of walking away without fears. Building a back bone to turn with.

Walking away with the strength and knowledge, while knowing, you will be ok.

 

 

The Eight of Cups is a card of liberation.

Depicted in the Rider deck a person is walking away. Eight cups aligned and stacked on top of one another sit

 in the forefront of the picture. In the distance the moon and the sun appear in a blue sky. This is a time of complete

 balance. A moment, where day and night exist. Mountains sit off in the distance symbolizing strength.

 Water passes through these mountains symbolizing emotions that the person feels within. 

 

 

At first glance this card may seem depressing. Giving up may be the only way in a situation. It is not about pride,

 it is about emotional protection. As emotional beings we can only hold on to so much. Our body’s need to release

 this backed up feeling of emotion. The only way to release this feeling is to walk away. It is not about giving up it

 is about not giving in. When you walk away you hold on to your opinions, but do not feed energy back.

 It is a liberating feeling when you own your own thoughts.

 

Turning around and walking away can be emotionally hard to deal with, but the reward in the end is so appealing.

Give thought to the above message and see if it fits into your life?
