Knight of Cups: The Romantic Seeker on a mission
This week we draw the Knight Van Bekers– A map of emotional missions, daring dreams and soulful action. Where the page of Cups proposes love letters and secret in love, The Knight of Cups sends them. He is the one who moves, searches.
In our highlighted image there is a deer on the edge of a river, ceremonial armor that glints under a pale sky, a golden chalice, gracefully balanced in his antlers. This is not a vain dreamer-this is a traveler with a savory mission.
While Venus fires in Ram and Neptune throws his dreamy haze, the Cosmos reflects the call of De Ridder: Feel deep, trade courageously, but entered consciousness.
Let us explore the deeper meaning of the knight of cups, why the deer embodies this holy emotional journey and how you can navigate the week ahead with both passion and clarity.
