The Suits
Cups. Water. West. A drop of dew, my saliva, the ocean, rivers, veins pumping with blood, all of the tears ever cried, a raindrop.
Pentacles. Earth. North. Bone, teeth, a garden, the forest floor, mountains, the dirt under my fingernail, the dust on the bookshelf, the bodies of the ancestors.
Wands. Fire. South. Energy, passion, digestion, gastric juices, the sun, a kiss, flowing lava, lighting strikes, the electrical pulse in the drumming of our hearts,
Swords. Air. East. Oxygen, our breath, incense wafting, tornados, spring breeze, hurricane winds, soft snoring of a loved one.
