The Ace of Cups card calls us to learn to live in peace and honor with one another, whether human or non-human, and especially with our environment. Sweeping paradigm changes are swiftly moving across humanity as both the media and the general public wake up and acknowledge the state of our planet. We are witnessing bizarre weather changes and outcomes that are critically bringing into focus the need to be gentle with both the earth and each other. It is a time to join forces across the globe to ensure that what is left of the earth's pristine energy and beauty remains intact for ourselves, our children and future generations. This is a severe wake-up call, which the Ace of Cups delivers in a loving and encouraging way. All is not lost - there is still time to get it right, if we all pitch in together.
