Tarot: king of wands

In the classic Rider Waite Smith tarot deck, this tarot card shows a red-haired king with a green collar and green shoes. He looks tough and determined. The King of Wands sits just like the Queen of Wands on a precious golden throne. At his foot he has a small lizard that symbolizes his witty nature. This man would fly off his throne for the slightest thing, he is extremely action-oriented and does not like to ask for help. Compared to the Emperor who delegates and gives orders, it is the King of Wands who carries out orders himself. He stops when he dies. The lesson for this character is cooperation, acceptance and the gray scale. Overactive Heart Chakra and Solar Plexus Chakra.

Tarot: five of cups

Cups cards in the tarot deck are symbolized by the element Water and rule the zodiac signs Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces. In the classic Rider Waite Smith tarot deck, this tarot card shows a person in deep sorrow. Five of Cups is the saddest card in the entire Tarot deck. The person is dressed in black, hangs his head and stares fixedly at three overturned goblets of wine on the ground. Behind the person stand two goblets still upright. You have stared blindly at a loss and cannot see or appreciate what you actually have. One of the overturned cups has a green content and sometimes it's lucky that we can't consume everything we want - some consumption is poison to us. Sometimes life takes away from us that which had hurt us. The person has closed their heart and has a Heart Wall. It is as if the boredom in the card before, Four of Cups has gone even deeper and we all need to be aware that our thoughts can make us depressed. The person in the card also has a blocked Sacral Chakra (healthy emotions).

You are on your way down into a deep sadness, disappointment, depression to work up a hunger again. Water can drown in excessive amounts and the man in four in a beaker begins to drown. In the next card, Five of Cups, it is more evident.
