The Summer Solstice has passed, and we’re now in the astrological sign of Cancer. Cancer is the cardinal Water sign, so it seems appropriate to initiate (cardinal quality) ourselves in the watery suit of the Cups in the Margarete Petersen Tarot – starting with the Ace!

What a beautiful image!... the single lotus, opening its heart, floating
on clear, pure water. Margarete Petersen writes that the Aces show the
characteristics of the element in concentrated form, so here we have the idea of
a pure love and happiness. The lotus
represents renewal and the opening of the heart.
I often see the Aces as a gift, or a seed from which something can grow,
as we progress through the suit. By
opening up and trusting our instincts, we leave ourselves open to new
friendships and relationships – including a renewal of our relationship with
ourselves!
