Guiding words/ideas:
Connection with other beings; the beauty and energy of harmonious relationships; being in community with other humans, non-human beings and celestial bodies; gentle love; gathering strength when things are peaceful and loving… so it can assist when things become difficult; being grateful for moments of harmony; allowing oneself to be nourished by others.
Channeled guidance:
There is an easy joy and satisfaction in this card. It is if each human connected to these hands is looking at the others and gently smiling. The sparkle in their eyes says, “Isn’t it so wonderful to be here together?” The cups are full, possibly even filled with magic. The hands are being warmed by the cups. In the background we see a moon and maybe even another celestial body, as if the planets are also saying, “Isn’t it so wonderful that we’re all here together?”
This is a card of love, of community; a card about the beauty and energy that occur in a group of beings that is harmonious, respectful, and grateful for the presence of the others. This love is a gentle glow, a warm pulse. Nothing too fast. Nothing too complicated. That energy is even and satisfying.
This card encourages you to be in this kind of community with others: other humans, other beings, other celestial bodies. It invites you to engage in peaceful and harmonious relations in a way that feeds your heart and gives you strength. For you won’t always be in these moments. And that strength will come in handy when there is less harmony, when there are too many or too few other beings, when there is conflict, confusion, or disturbance.
Gather the strength in your heart when things are peaceful and loving. Be grateful for these moments. Let them feed you and nourish you deeply in a way that nothing else can. Truly, these moments are of the best in one’s life. Enjoy. Let your smile be easy. Let your eyes sparkle and communicate, “Isn’t it wonderful that we’re all here together?”
