The message for the day is . . .
Whenever I'm shuffling cards to do a tarot reading and one of them comes out of the deck of its own accord, I figure this is the most important card of the reading - it's the one that actively said, "Hey, look at me!" This morning as I was getting ready to consult the cards about a situation at hand, reading as I do these days with The Fey Tarot
Three of Chalices
The simple message of this card is to take pleasure in the simple delights of abundance and joy, to just go with the flow of feeling happy. From the book, we get this more advanced insight into what the Fey version of this card has to teach us:
Happiness is one of the strongest energies that we can generate. It comes from knowing how to see the good in everything, but not only that; it also comes from knowing how to express oneself spontaneously in unexpected circumstances. Happiness is to live absolutely in the present, with no remorse for the past, nor worries for any future. Happiness, therefore, is playing and energy without reason, shape or any other kind of prop.
Seeing this card changed my outlook on the day. Instead of focusing on weekend plans that are threatening to go awry, I will just be in the present, taking my happiness where it comes without investing in a particular outcome. How freeing. How fun!

I do that, too! When a card "jumps out" of the deck, I figure there's a good reason. I recently pulled this card when doing a reading about a friend who's in v. dire straights. It can also mean that the subject is ignoring reality, off dancing in the Spring fields, wine in hand, while all hell breaks loose. I hope that, in your case, it presaged a day of joy!

It was a nice day - sunny, so I went for a walk at Castle Island with a friend. No hell breaking loose, so I think the Fey were right on this one. :)
