An interesting reading today with a friend passing through the final stages of grieving and raging over a bitter divorce.
After we went through all of the cards around what she had passed through, we took some future cards. We drew:
King of Cups ~ Mother of pentacles ~ Daughter of pentacles.
She made interesting comments on the other two cards, but I wanted to share the King of Cups. While middle aged, she is far from giving up on love and looked at this with interest for some minutes. She said, 'this reminds me of a story I read once called "The Black Swan".' She said that in the story people were talking and someone claimed there was a black swan. Everyone pooh-poohed this saying that all swans were white. Until a black swan swam by and suddenly everyone had to adjust their understanding of reality a bit.
She said that she didn't see this as a love interest, too self-contained, though she could see him as friend.
Her cards in general to my eyes showed a truly profound change of direction for her, and I also took this card to be someone who offers good but dispassionate advice. And causes you to see the world just that little bit differently.
