I feel like I can see a trend forming with this week's cards. Monday: X of Cups, celebrating your family, your successes, and finding appreciation/gratitude for what you have; Tuesday: II of Swords, being faced with difficult decisions weighted in yukky emotions; and today, the V of

The X of Cups: the card of gratitude and appreciation. I know I already heard some people stop and say, "Wait... that's the family card." And to that, I say, "You aren't wrong!" But there is more to this card than just
