Another draining week in the books. I’m looking forward to some rest, but alas, not this weekend. I have to do two podcasts today, and then another long editing gauntlet tomorrow. However, I’m not going to act like I’m a victim of anything, because that’s life. You’re going to have periods of high activity and low activity. I’m not worried about a thing right now, I have to stop by the farmer’s market after work to pick up a few vegetables to fuel this journey. The clothes are washing, so let’s make the most of this.

Reversed, the Knight of Cups means that you allow your emotions to control your life a lot more than you should. You might be overly jealous, emotional or moody. In fact, this could get up to the point of actual incapacity to take action, which is most definitely to be avoided. Jumping to conclusions too fast is characteristic of a reversed Knight of Cups, and making judgements without having the necessary information is very common.

The card indicates a situation which could be considered appealing at first but quickly turns out to be something very different. With such high expectations, everyone will walk away quite disappointed.

Yes, I do get moody when I’m tired, and today, I am a little tired, as would anyone if you had the week I did. However, this just means I have to be more mindful of my emotions today. Snapping is not an option. It’s going to be a struggle when people want to test me today, but thankfully, I will have opportunities to have some tea and calm down if anyone gets on my nerves. That’s the beauty of this warning from the universe. Great reminder to stay mindful.

Perthro is often associated with the cup of dice or the concept of fortune. It represents the element of chance and the unpredictability of life. It signifies that the influences affecting your situation may be due to luck or randomness. This rune highlights the ever-changing nature of circumstances and the need to adapt to the hand you’ve been dealt. You are being invited to accept and work with the unpredictable elements in your life. You must now make the best out of unforeseen situations and to find value in the hidden or unknowable aspects of your path forward. Embrace the role of chance and change with an open mind, knowing that you have the power to influence your outcomes through your responses and attitudes.

Perthro is also the rune of hidden meanings, secrets, and the mysteries of life. It encourages you to embrace the uncertainties and to look for opportunities within them. Like the womb, the unknown carries the promise of new beginnings and the potential for growth through change. Make the most of whatever comes your way, whether it seems fortunate or challenging.

In the words of Gordon Ramsey “adapt or die.” Right now, the universe is throwing people who do not respect our time or our energy our way. However, just like with the Knight of Cups, we have to realize we aren’t the victim here. The universe is throwing open doors. We are water. There will always be stones, cliffs, and branches in our way, but like water, we are going to have to navigate around them. That’s the best thing about us water babies, we know how to adapt. We’ll get through today.

Today, be more mindful of your emotions. Instead of just being impulsive, take a quick 5 second breath and let your brain turn back on. Trust me, you’ll feel better about whatever it is that bothered you. Use your brain, not your heart today.

Class dismissed.
