I have a ton of work to get done in the next month, but I'm feeling a bit under the weather today. It's curse-related, not Covid-related, so no worries there. I just can't shake the cobwebs out of my head and get down to business. I actually napped for three straight hours, which is something I rarely do. I do nap almost every day, don't get me wrong. I love naps! But for twenty minutes - never three straight hours. I guess my body needed it. In just over a week I'll be flying to Las Vegas for the 20Booksto50K conference. I'm sharing a table with T.J. Deschamps, author of Eastside Hedge Witch and the Faerie Tales series. But I'm not at all ready for that trip. I don't have any of the supplies I'll need, nor do I have any clean, decent clothes to wear (after 19 months of no face-to-face real world work, my upscale work clothes don't fit anymore.) I am not ready to open my shop in Vegas. I'm the reversed nine of cups.  Upright, the Nine of Cups is riches, luxury, and the satisfaction you receive from enjoying your wealth. It is sometimes a bit of smugness as well, or it could represent a shopkeeper who is ready to open their store to the world. Reversed, the luxuries have been overturned or lost. It is misery, devastation, self-hatred and greed. Because cups are about emotions, it could also be a need to end a relationship, or a lack of joy. Questions answered by the reversed Nine of Cups: Who? An arrogant, disappointed person What? A lack of fulfillment Where? An uncomfortable place When? The 1st week of March; 9 months after a loss Why? “We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.” ~Martin Luther King Jr Yes or No? No The reversed Nine of Cups as: …an action?
…a place in your house?
…a place in your city?
…a place in the world?
…something to eat?
…something to clean?
…where to find your missing item?
…a color? Blue …a movie theme? Shattered dreams; unfulfillment
…a new career?
The reversed Nine of Cups Before any card: Disappointing and negative (card) After any card: Failure; unhappiness and If you're in the Vegas area and want a Tarot reading, come find me at Bally's on November 12th! I'll try and have my head and my shop together by then.

The Nine of Cups is riches and luxury. The card typically shows a person, perhaps a shopkeeper, happily surrounded by their wares and proud to show them off.
Because cups are about emotion, this card represents the feelings involved when you are surrounded by your goods or possessions. It is satisfaction, appreciation, and pleasure, and sometimes a bit of smugness too. Go ahead and open your store for sale, you are ready. Questions answered by Nine of Cups: Who? A contented wealthy person What? items of value Where? A comfy chair When? The first week of March; 9 months Why? It's okay to celebrate your blessings Yes or No?
