A hand hold a red lion. The red lion is holding a golden cup. In the background, there is a river with gates.

There seems to be a lot of potential. A lot of inspiration. I think there is a connection between inspiration/creativity and water.

I dont have the book, so I hope someone reads this and can answer. Why is there a lion? Why doesnt the hand just hold a cup? What is the significance of the lion there?

Unusual Ace of Cups, indeed. "Fiery" lion above (as it looks to me) frozen river... The hand holding it is greenish... The sign of spring? Melting of the ice that covers Vltava river?
