“Truth should not be forced; it should simply manifest itself, like a woman who has in her privacy reflected and coolly decided to bestow herself upon a certain man.” –John Updike

Today, we have the Three of Cups (Mercury in Cancer) and the Queen of Cups (Water in Water)—looks a bit sloshy! The Transparent Tarot’s layering creates a very interesting composite. While the communication (Mercury) is full of feelings (Cancer), the watery Queen seems to be a bit in her own world, off to the side. Not surprising, as the Queen of Cups sometimes retreats to her own world.
She feels much more than she says—and her celebration may well be a private one. Look to events having not only a community impact, but also a very personal meaning as well. This is neither right or wrong. Just a reminder—you don’t know what’s in someone else’s head or heart. I’m not saying you or need to know or there is some deep, dark secret. Only that each individual has their own path. Have faith that you get what you need, and may everyone else, as well.
Are you seeing (or having) private moments?

Not too many private moments for me cuz I have no problem sharing what I think; however, I do have a tendency to retreat to my own little world in my head – I hang out there alot.
I like to know what others are thinking, especially my kids. My daughter is a very private person & doesn’t share her opinion like I do – this is MADDENING to me but it’s her path.
I love how you layer these cards.
This is usually something that I have no problem understanding. I was misrepresented as attacking someone the other day (Thursday), when there was nothing of the sort intended, and that’s what I thought of with this. I was relating something that I was experiencing, and had tried to communicate something a few months before, but apparently these people know me better than the people who actually know me and love me, or know what I’m thinking and feeling better than I do (note: they don’t).
I’m over here, with my cup, but I’m not alone.
