The Wheel now moves around to the first of the Druidcraft's Cups Court cards to guide us through the next couple of weeks: The Princess of Cups
A young woman stands, barefoot, at the side of a lake. A breeze catches the surface of the water and plays with her golden hair as she holds a golden goblet respectfully before her.
Behind her a great tree displays its russet foliage and fields show their golden harvest.
Welcome to autumn!
The Princesses in the Druidcraft equate to the Pages in a traditional deck and symbolise the same child-like approach to life - straightforward and open hearted.
No matter what age you are and how challenged you have been by life, the Princess of Cups asks you to open your heart and welcome in tender feelings. Now is the time to let warm and loving heart-felt burst through the dam of fear that you may have built up within you to keep yourself 'safe'.
As the harvest is scythed and the fruits picked from the tree, she asks us:
Are you prepared to cut down your old pains?
How can you be more loving in the world?
Are you ready to open your heart?

PS - this painting was originally entitled 'Autumn' before she became the Princess of Cups.
