X of Cups Spell
All of my wishes are fulfilled!
My happiness brings me chills.
For, once I found the love within,
I knew I could share it with my kin.
The voices in my head no longer doubt.
Instead they encourage me to sprout.
The only things I can hear
are the words
I never heard
but always held so dear:
I love you. I love me. It's so clear!
My new roots lie inside
and the stems stretch and guide
the leaves to branch, to stanch
the blood, their life-force, from leaving, to just abide.
The time to shine has arrived.
My hope uncurls from bud to blossom,
each flower unfurls, magnificent and awesome.
Little baby hearts born from true love
rest themselves in the sun, glittering above.
Feeling the warmth from my chest,
they stay close and safe upon my breast.
They expand outward when they're ready and willing
when they’re hearts are full and ready for spilling.
They're ready to rain upon the earth
and blow their seeds into the universe.
All of their worth,
All of our work:
Disperse!
Fruited from a place sound and benign,
the little ones will make a home of their own design.
Perhaps one that alters the state of man, of woman, of all-kind.
But, there's still that old chill in the air
that reminds me that it's there.
However, it's only so I know where not to go
and far, far away from it, we can all grow.
From the harshest wind and the coldest snow
a red tulip can still blossom and grow.
It can shoot up its clocks to tell a new time
and wake up the world with its message, divine.
All of my wishes are fulfilled!
My happiness brings me chills.
WISHES COME TRUE, BLISS AT HOME, LOVING FAMILY
Tens call upon the idea of completion, the end of the journey that also invites a new beginning ahead. It’s the culmination of all past efforts into your end result: good, bad and in between. In the case of X of Cups, the end is absolutely amazing. You’re seeing the wishes from the IX of Cups actually happen. Your deepest dreams are here for you, unraveling in front of you in such warmth, comfort and beauty. The cold and harsh voices of the past are far, far away from you. Your new surroundings invite such growth, expansion, love, kindness, and honesty. Your family is who you choose to surround you in an embrace full of support and love. Whatever you want in your life is up to you to make happen, and you’ve done just that. It doesn’t mean that there won’t ever be conflicts or problems, but the foundation you’ve built your family upon will be one of something solid and peaceful, so resolutions can happen organically and without abuse. And the tulip seeds will blow, making new plants that will grow. Your love legacy will be that you chose to break the cycle and be free.
Eight’s Insight: It can be hard to imagine yourself as part of something loving when you weren’t provided love as a child. It’s an unmet basic need your inner child can’t get anymore from anyone except yourself. You might need to revisit what really is important to you. Can you find the relational harmony that never existed so far in your life? Do you need to spend some time forgiving, forgetting, and letting go? Do you need a banishing or cord cutting ceremony to move truly move forward? You might be still attracting people who are like your dysfunctional family unit without realizing it. Contemplate for awhile and assess who you want to be part of the garden you’re growing and either nourish those plants or weed them out for good. Alternatively, perhaps you do have a family (of design or of origin) that is everything for which anyone could ever wish, but your sense of worth is so lacking that you can’t even see the richness of life they’ve offered you. Maybe you’re trying so hard to get rid of all the old, dead plants that you’re not seeing the beauty of the ones that are blooming and thriving right in front of you. Stop and smell the tulips that you made bloom.
