Little Baron
Todays draw - 8 of Cups *Bertie*
This guy is on the move. He wanders, not too quickly, through the Water Cup Desert, leaving what seems to be the city, for something new. Above the city is a space craft, remenisant of the one in the Chariot, and behind him, on a trolly he pulls his eight cups.
Graham Cameron says of this card -
"Bertie feels there must be more to life. Where is it taking him? His days at the Soda Pop Factory, where he spends so much of his time, do not stimulate him anymore. He leaves in search of his own individual destiny to discover what his life is about.
The Eight of Cups shows us that the answer is within ourselves. We come here to discover what it is we lack.
RX: Denying deep emotional needs, feeling puzzled".
So, it's not a city then - it's the Soda Pop Factory in the background.
The colours here are neutral and I can feel through them, Bertie's lack of stimulation. I like the angle on this card. I hardly ever compare the cards in this deck with others because it is 'one on its own' and is such a different world. However, when compared to this card in the RWS, Bertie is coming towards us and leaving the Soda Pop Factory, where as the RWS guy is walking away into the darkness. This depiction seems so much more possitive.
Any ideas on the space craft? Is that a symbol of movement? Are they looking for him? Missing him already?
Best wishes to you all
