Welcome on in, today the Cardslingers tackle the 6 of Cups. The Smith Waite deck shows two children having fun. Lis reminds us that the guard in the back is keeping the kids safe. Standard meanings are nostalgia, safety, and enjoying communion. Remind yourself how important you are to those around you, with what you pass on to them. And thanks to the live crew for sticking around.

Homework: Make yourself a “Happy File” or an “I Am Loved” folder on your computer, tablet, or phone and fill it with images and snippets of conversations from folks you’ve impacted.
