When I look at the 5 of Chalices, I see a metamorphic liberation.
We are told this is a desert Fey, and the magical city behind him
even looks like it could be an amazing fantastic sandcastle world.
There he now abides, within the husk of a blue ceramic chalice,
but nothing suggests that it was broken ~ it still stands upright,
and there isn't any sorrow or fear shown on the face of the Fey.
Like an eggshell when a chick has hatched and now surveys the
world for the first time from the safety of its nest, the Fey muses,
snuggled comfortably, soon to venture forth upon a new journey.
He knows that the splintered chalice has become a part of his past,
and that its purpose has been fulfilled and it's no longer of any use,
but he cherishes the memory, realising all that it provided for him.
And in a moment (but not yet), he'll take wing and swirl skyward,
with a quick glance back to his origins, and then go hungrily after
all that the city promises to hold, the world he was born to explore.
He is my companion Fey, and the 5 of Chalices my Fey Tarot card.
