Meat and Potatoes Tarot (with Ellie)

A man in a red cloak and red boots steps across a rocky body of water. But why is the ground so rocky? Why is the sun obscured by the moon? Why is the man's back turned away? And what about that gap in the cups? So many messages in such a simple imagery. Ellie explains... 

The Seven of Cups shows a blue sky, covered by grey clouds, which in turn are covered in a wide arrange of weird and wonderful offerings. So, why is Seven of Cups often referred to as the 'illusion delusion' card? Ellie explains why... 

The Six of Cups presents a lovely village scene, with 2 young children chatting as they mingle with cups filled with flowers. Unless of course you know better. The Six of Cups is so much more, let Ellie explain...
