Be Selfish

Some of us spend so much of our time working for, being responsible for, or just plain looking out for others that we find ourselves with little time to spend on doing something we want, and little energy with which to do it when we do get a moment. That really won’t do.

I believe that if you can’t take care of yourself you can’t really take care of anybody else. Sure, maybe you can do it for a while, but eventually the batteries run out in even the brightest Eveready bunny if you don’t find a way to recharge them from time to time. When they do, all that follows is DRUDGERY.

You want to indulge yourself. You NEED to indulge yourself, to do something that makes you feel alive, something that makes the endorphins flow, something that puts a smile on your face, a glow in your heart or a tingle in your body, preferentially all three at once.

The Nine of Cups is all about self-indulgence, getting what you want, and feeling oh so good about it. And why not? There’s enough opportunity in life to feel the opposite of what this card’s energy offers. Take it and run, for who knows what tomorrow will be like.
