THE BALLAD OF CHALICES
SUIT OF CHALICES
Love • Emotion • Intuition • Inundation
“A love letter left in your head is better written down instead”
element: water
season: fall
signs: pisces, cancer, & scorpio
The Suit of Chalices contains all the affairs of the heart. Love, friendship, loss, exuberance - these are but some of the many emotional journeys depicted in this changeable suit. They play themselves out on the banks of a river, its meandering path mirroring the fluidity of feelings. When you draw many Chalices in a reading, listen carefully to your heart and intuition. Lucid, amorphous, they may have divined more than you may realize.
