#7 cups

[dvoeverie-stitches]

Today is the 10th or 11th day of Christmas depending upon the custom and we are in the midst of the caroling days (Koleda) in Czechia and other parts of the Slavic world.

For today’s activity I practiced sedm šálků (seven cups) divination.

Objects are placed under seven cups to forecast what you can expect in the coming year. A piece of coal means illness, a pacifier a baby, a handkerchief a long journey, a comb trouble or misfortune, a coin wealth, a ring wedding or love and bread is luck.

After closing your eyes, moving the mugs around and then choosing one, you discover what the following year has in store for you.

I didn’t have all of these items so I simply wrote them on paper and taped them to the inside of the cups.

Luckily I chose bread. 🥖

Now we wait and see. 😉

Golden Klimt- 7 Cups

* * * *

from Heather Choate Davis' "Baptism by Fire" "Now, god, as a rule, is spelled with a capital G, but not by me. Not when it's coupled with "damn it," which, by the time I could drive, was the only way I used it. As an adult --- if pressed --- I would describe god as something along the lines of "ultimate goodness, loving and light," but it wasn't attached to any "him," nor did it have any sons. I distrusted religion, both organized and otherwise. I owned up to no relationship with any higher power. I did not kneel or turn things over to "him," yet despite all this, I knew. Deep in the heart of wherever these certainties lie, I knew: god was the truth. I knew it, yet I neither sought it out nor embraced it --- no, any possibility of that had been destroyed by the rabid demagogues who called themselves "Christian."

Do you need to talk about that Bo Burnham special? Use my link to start a 7 Cups account and talk through the uncomfortably relatable mess.

Also, I am currently doing the 7 Cups internship which counts as credit hours towards my Bachelors degree in Psychology so I would really appreciate it if you would use my link. For some reason, I have to get 80+ referral clicks as one of the requirements. So stupid but I’d really appreciate it! Thank you and we’ll get through this together!

Hey for everyone out there that hates going to a therapist, because it's quite a big step, here's something that helped me a lot.

It's because of these people that I've successfully battled depression and now my valleys don't run so deep anymore, my lows aren't pitfalls anymore.

If you're in need of some help but actually getting up and look up a therapist feels like so much, found you a little something. I know it's hard to find help when you can't even get up to look for it. I've been there.♥️

Love you all. A lot.♥️🥰

I'm really bummed out by how they've changed that '7 cups of tea' therapy/listener site.

Whenever I've been in a really awful place I've gone there and browsed the profiles of the people I could talk to if I wanted to, and just seeing that I had options was comforting enough for me. I'm too timid to actually talk to people but just knowing that I could was really healing.

Now the site confronts you immediately with a request to sign up and it automatically connects you with a listener even if you go in as anon/guest.

Like... no. No I came here for comfort and safety and a sense of control over my problems. Why are you putting me in the spotlight of instantly having someone I don't know staring expectantly at me. No. Why did you ruin the nice thing.
