II of Cups Spell
Mirror, mirror in the hall
Do you tell the truth?
Do you know all?
Am I going to rise
or shall I fall?
I feel so alone.
A scream without a megaphone.
Are you alone?
A ghost without a moan.
I see you.
A hoodoo without any voodoo.
Do you see me, too?
A family secret without taboo?
A bomb without a boom
A door without a room.
Let’s just see this through.
Am I see-through?
Whatever I am, you are not.
Whatever I do, you don’t.
Whatever I will, you won’t.
The pieces I’m missing are the ones you’ve got.
Where I’ve already searched, you haven’t sought.
Shadow and light,
day and night,
sunset and sunrise,
our opposites materialize
into an attraction,
a connection,
a deep affection.
We’re a complexion
based on a chemical reaction.
Emotions ringing,
a new beginning,
that feels like a timeless story spinning.
Twinning…
Spinning…
together and around,
endlessly bound,
finally found.
But, I’ve just met you!
I could never forget you.
I’ve never felt this ever…
and I’ve know you, forever.
Each life we live
each gift we give
of ourselves to each other,
we have to receive
again and again, another and another.
Best friend or lover?
Sister or brother,
father or mother,
cousins or colleagues,
friends or enemies?
This relationship flows.
It grows.
And we both just…know.
We’ve found each other
over and over
endless,
boundless,
timeless,
groundless.
We’ve found this!
Self-love brings soul mates,
shadow sisters,
Ms., Mrs. and Misters
He, they, them
She, her, him,
all that glitters
has a glister.
We’re mountains unmoving in a twister.
Two of cups,
tipped up,
sipped up.
Filling, thrilling, just chilling…
bringing parts apart back together again.
A bond unlike all I’ve known…
into each other’s hearts we’ve grown.
Roots into trees.
Moss onto stone.
Blood into bone.
Dust into breeze.
We’re not alone.
HEALTHY PARTNERSHIP, BEST FRIENDS FOREVER, GIFT OF DEEP CONNECTION
Every once in a lifetime you meet another soul who just gets you. You don’t have to sit around explaining yourself. The ebbing and glowing between you both is easy and safe. You might be in business or romance. It could be your own child. Or even a familiar. They make you feel less alone and scared in this world. You change each other for the better and bring out the brightest versions of each other.
Eight’s Wisdom: This could be the relationship that you missed out on as a child-a deep, reciprocal, unconditional love that goes beyond words and blood-bonds. You might be afraid to trust this because your relational trauma makes it hard, but go for it! Let yourself feel this bond because it might be your only chance. This could also speak to healing YOUR inner ghost that’s been reaching out to you. Listen to the love you have for yourself. Take a chance on yourself so that sometime soon you’ll invest that love and time into another when you’re ready. Alternatively, perhaps you find yourself choosing the same personality archetypes again to replay your trauma because you haven’t resolved old issues.
