9 of Wands: Persistence! You'll get there.

 

9 of Cups. Exalted Love

 

9 of Cups

 4/19/2026 (c) 

There is enough—

the wishing well filled

to the high line,

its mouth enclosed by

stone teeth, worn blunt.

 

Some draw by bucket and pulley,

trying to quench

the thirst of many.

 

A farmer uses a cup

and drinks during breaks

to replenish what he’s lost.

 

I use a porcelain espresso cup—

fragile, diminutive—

 

sometimes I use a thimble.

 

I drink often,

so it does not flood me.
