Knight of Cups — Let Your Life Be a Love Poem
This Knight arrived with a gentle smile this morning — and it felt like the perfect moment to answer a question I received:
“Stac, your morning posts have been short the past few days, you okay?”
Yes, my lovely fellow bears — I am good. Very good.
One of the many things 2025 has taught me is when slowing down is not only preferred, but it is essential.
My son and I started a tradition some 20-years back (after my divorce from his dad) where for the holiday we still cook a FULL spread holiday meal. Full ham, ALL the sides, multiple desserts, and then we graze like gluttonous little feral goblins and play video games / watch movies together for a few days.
It is one of the absolute favorite parts of my year (and my life!)
This year, I’m slowing everything down just a notch to make sure I’m intentionally enjoying every moment of love, gratitude, and appreciation for my son and my life.
It’s one of the best lessons to come from this — challenging — year.
🪶 Part 1: For the Writers
The Knight of Cups is the artist, the romantic, the one who leads with feeling instead of force.
This card appears when:
You’re creating from affection, not urgency
Your work wants tenderness instead of optimization
You’re remembering why you fell in love with storytelling in the first place
The Knight doesn’t rush.
He feels his way forward.
For writers, this is an invitation to:
Write one thing today from the heart
Let beauty be enough
Stop treating joy like a distraction
🖋️ Writers don’t just produce — they offer.
