This is worth sending in again. *lol*
IT IS ALL TRUE
1) Fine
This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and
you need to shut up.
2) Five Minutes
If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is
only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to
watch the game before helping around the house.
3) Nothing
This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you
should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end
in "fine."
4) Go Ahead
This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!
5) Loud Sigh
This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often
misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot
and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with
you about nothing. (Refer back to # 3 for the meaning of nothing.)
6) That's Okay
This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a
man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before
deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.
7) Thanks
A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you're
welcome. (I want to add in a clause here – This is true, unless she
says 'Thanks a lot' – that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you
at all. DO NOT say 'you're welcome' . That will bring on a
'whatever').
8 ) Whatever
Is a woman's way of saying F– YOU!
9) Don't worry about it, I got it
Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman
has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This
will later result in a man asking 'What's wrong?' For the woman's
response refer to #3.

King of Cups
Tarot Card Meaning
Some keywords from the King of Cups:
Ruler
Leader
Healer
Fatherly
Advocate
Sensitive
Diplomat
Idealistic
Negotiator
Nobleman
Influential
Scrupulous
Charismatic
Ambassador
Responsible
Philanthropic
Humanitarian
Understanding
Communicative
"I am the King of Cups and this is my legacy.
I am a consummate communicator, and I built my kingdom on a foundation
of intelligent discernment. A natural humanitarian, I can easily
relate to people of all classes and races.
This ability to relate and understand people comes from an uncanny
ability to listen. I've been told I have a fatherly way about me in
that people are comfortable in telling me their life story. This
speaks volumes, as a man of my high stature can be very intimidating.
Nevertheless, they open their hearts to me, and I value the candor and
trust they place in me.
My forte in verbal exchange enables me to be a true diplomat too. I am
most effective as an ambassador for my kingdom. I am the most traveled
of all the kings in the Tarot. I enjoy travel, but most favorable is
joining forces with foreign lands.
Learning ways of foreign cultures is highly engaging for me. Indeed, I
carry many foreign customs back to my home country with a goal to
diversify my own people. I believe in broadening minds and expanding
horizons.
To wit, I establish higher learning in my kingdom. I endorse
educational programs and encourage everyone (men, women and children)
to participate in continued learning.
I am also a religious man, and as the King of Cups, I promote
spiritual education too. I believe everyone should have an equal
sampling of religion, science and philosophy. I work very hard to make
these things available to every one no matter what their economic
status.
My suit is water, so I am emotionally intuitive, yet my station as
King is air-bound which dwells in the realm of thought. This gives me
an advanced edge because I can effortlessly communicate the intuitive
perceptions I receive.
I am an eloquent speaker, writer and I even express my philosophical
perspectives in art too. Although, I am not in a position to nurture
my artistic side as much as I would desire. More appropriately, I
devote much attention to studying the fine arts. I have a savvy eye
for classic design, art and style. I promote many arts programs in my
kingdom too.
I sit on a foundational throne in the center of the ocean, which gives
testimony to my exclusivity in communicative, intuitive realms.
Further, my stone island in the sea is symbolic of my solid rock
ability to discriminate the truth from the babble that is uttered from
the collective consciousness.
As the King of Cups, I am psychically perceptive, and can hear all
kinds of verbiage. I sit on a foundation of keen intellect and
strong-willed determination to trust intellect over unreliable
sources.
Arthurian lore draws a connection to me, the King of Cups and the
Fisher King. Indeed, my son, the Knight of Cups is likened to Perceval
whom the Fisher King engages in the story of the quest for the Holy
Grail. I can see where similarities can be drawn.
The most important connection with this legend and myself is that I do
protect something unfathomably priceless. The grail as it is
manifested in my wife, the Queen of Cups. She is my highest advisor,
more psychic than anyone in my realm. I trust her implicitly, she is
my secret weapon and foretells of many an event. She is the grail of
life and the connection to all things unseen. I devote my life first
to my Queen, then to my kingdom.
I'm fastidious about my appearance. As a diplomat, it's important for
the King of Cups to maintain a polished appearance. I have brownish
hair, cut short and well tended. My eyes are most noted for their
crispness more than color, but they are light and bluish like the seas
of my homeland. There is something about my presence that is
authoritative. I hold myself as if I am always in control. This is a
quality that goes beyond the realm of kingship.
When I appear to you in the cards, I will encourage you to be a
leader, to be the voice of your own people. But I will tell you in
order to be a strong voice in a sea of opinions, you must first listen
to for the people's needs. Let both intellect, compassion and
intuition be your guide as you serve as an ambassador for the greatest
good of your tribe."
Some symbols from the King of Cups:
click fish symbolism in Tarot
Fish: It is no coincidence that the fish is featured on all the cups
court cards because fish symbol meanings deal with emotion, intuition
and creativity. When considering the fish symbol meaning, we must
first recognize the nature of the water in which it lives: in motion,
unpredictable, and representative of the subconscious (as symbolic of
water). The fish is a symbol of prolific abundance if we have the
wherewithal to harness our own passion responsibly. Swim in fish
symbolism of the Tarot sea.
click for a larger view of all cards with the Ocean symbol
Ocean: Ocean symbol meanings deal with infinite possibilities.
Consider the ocean, and you will be considering the essence of
vastness, mystery, and depth. It seems in exhaustible and the holder
of wonderous things unseen. When the oceans in the King of Cups crash
their waves against our consciousness, it is time to pay homage to the
great divine - meaning we should recognize the burgeoning power around
us, the animating force that runs through us - the expansive and
expressive nature of the universe. In other words, we must acknowledge
that there may be other (higher) powers at work in our lives and it
may be time to release our control in order to allow these powers to
open up incredible opportunities to us. Dive into other oceans in the
Tarot
click for a larger view of all cards with the Ship symbol
Ship: Yes, of course ship symbol meanings deal with travel and
journey's. However a commonly overlooked factor is the medium upon
which they said - water - it deals with the deeper levels of the
psyche and the subconscious. This is particularly the case with the
King of Cups. When Ships sail across your vision in a reading, take
into consideration where your thoughts (psyche) are traveling - what
kind of baggage (cargo) are you carrying around, and are you charting
(navigating) out the best course for your thoughts and emotions? Set
sail on other ships in the deck.
Some questions the King of Cups asks:
Is it time for continued education?
I promote constant learning, especially in the arts, sciences and
religion. When I show up in the cards, I will ask you to study the
classics to enhance your perspective.
How are you at negotiations?
As a natural diplomat and negotiator, you have to think sharp, and
also observe every nuance of your opponent or partner. Study more
about me and other famous negotiators if you feel wary about your task
of finessing your needs in a meeting.
How do you feel about leadership?
Whether you lead in the role as a father, mother, president or even
being a spiritual leader, there are many things to consider. Foremost,
the cornerstones of my leadership as king is faith and compassion.

The Knight of Cups
This is the Lord of Waves and Water, often defined as the fiery aspect
of water. As such, in many ways this card represents a contradiction.
Most often when it appears, it will indicate an actual person who has
influence. However sometimes it can also indicate a moodshift or a
change of mode.
Since the Suit of Cups is all about love and loving relationships,
it's easy to see how the Knight can be regarded as the lover of the
cards. When representing a moodshift, the card can indicate the period
where a man falls in love.
When it represents a person he will be a complex and highly emotional
being - creative and visionary, sensitive (and sometimes
over-sensitive), romantic and intense. He will give the impression of
being open and caring, though this is often misleading; the Knight of
Cups is often subject to intense insecurity, needing constant
re-assurance and attention.
He is attracted and attractive to women, and enjoys basking in their
company. He will often be very charming, with a silver tongue and a
powerful personal agenda. He will rarely manage practical matters
well, tending to place rather more importance on buying two dozen red
roses, than paying the bills. At his worst, he can be inconstant,
unfaithful and selfish.
At his best, he is loving, generous with his emotions, supportive and
tender. He can be capable of high levels of spiritual development,
strong in intuition and warmly responsive. When he's on form he is
terrific company, having a good sense of humour and a keen interest in
other people. He's often an exciting and stimulating life partner and
lover - but only at his best!
You see - I said he was contradictory!
Working with the Knight of Cups
Well now, the inner lore on this card is quite fascinating..it has to
do with the ways in which energy flows in your home, and how that
contributes to your overall well-being and comfort - it's rather like
the Western version of Feng Shui, and relates to the management of
tellurgic energy (this is the stuff that flows through leylines)
Whilst comparisons between tellurgic beliefs and Feng Shui often
coincide, there are some differences too - for instance there is no
developed concept of 'bad' or damaging energy in the Western theory -
just misalignment against energy, which causes problems.
The Knight of Cups rules this energy, and is its master. So on a day
when this card comes up, it might be useful to have a think about the
ways in which energy flows through your home. Do you often close or
block off doors? Are there areas in the house where accidents often
happen for no good reason (you have to be logical here..you're liable
to break more plates in the kitchen or dining room than anywhere else
for instance ;-) How about your bedroom..does it serve as a tranquil,
restful haven or does it tend to make you uneasy or restless?
Just as a matter of interest, the way that you place the head of your
bed can have a profound effect on what happens in your life...take a
look at this list below which indicates what you draw in from each of
the Quarters and cross-quarters of the room.
East Settled family life
South East Good finances, profitable speculation
South Public recognition, particularly in the arts
South West Strong partnerships - both personal and business
West Spiritual protection, and material advancement
North West Travel and international trade
North Success in business
North East Help with studies and training
I have a vision of hundreds of people rushing to move their bedrooms
around!! Have fun. The interesting thing is that once you achieve your
aim, you can move your bed to secure the next one, without losing the
first one!!
Affirmation: I align myself with natural energies, and benefit from
their strength.

KING OF CUPS
Attribution - Cancer
Aquarius-Pisces cusp (20 degrees Aquarius to 20 degrees Pisces)
Cups is the suit of emotion, inner states, feelings, relationships,
memories, spiritual experiences. This suit talks about friendship,
family, love and happiness. The cup is the container of something

misunderstandings, hurt, pain, rejection, disputes, divorce, conflict,

your personality. Kings are father figures and symbolize mature men,
leadership and authority. Kings stand for force of will, initiative,
publicity, honours, rewards, public recognition.
Rider-Waite Imagery
The King of Cups sits on a grey (wisdom) throne. He is wearing a blue
(emotions, observing) gown, yellow (mind, intellect) cloak with red
(desire, action) trim, green (growth, love) shoes. His orb and scepter
is a cup and lotus wand. His crown is made of lotus flowers.
The King of Cups represents you. He is emotional stable and
supportive. He cares and provides for the people unconditionally. Your
guidance for spiritual work should be a choice that allows you to
nurture and support people emotionally. Kings are teachers. You should
look for areas that allow you to teach people how to take care of
themselves emotionally.

Sunday January 22, 2012
This is the 22nd day of the year, with 344 days remaining in 2012.
Fact of the Day: Elvis
When Elvis Presley performed live concerts the crowd inevitably
demanded as many encores from him as they could get. Finally, when he

harbor no further hopes of his returning to the stage. The
announcement "Elvis has left the building," would effectively get the
audience to finally go home.
