Episode 49: Page or Princess of Cups

As our finale to the watery suit, we bring you the Page or Princess of Cups.  The earthy part of water, she is the world's dreamer, and her air of distant rapture belies her power.  She is a scryer, an oracle, a romantic, and a helpmate.  The talking, wish-granting fish speaks to her even when none else can hear! Flower of the Ace of Cups' promise, the Crystal Princess brings back secret wisdom from the western shores of death.  As Jung did with his Red Book, she grounds her dreams in this world's reality. In our conversation we speak about her astral travels, her role as Muse, her relationship to meditation, sacrifice, and redemption (as found in the Libra-Scorpio-Sagittarius story), the fish and the lotus, the seashell and the cosmic egg, her connection with the 10 of Cups, desire and illusions, tortoises and swans, the geomantic figure Via and the I Ching hexagram 41 or "Decrease".  We consider 'La Hire' (the companion of St. Joan), the age of plague and chivalry, the myth of Paris and Helen of Troy, falling in love with love, and the active imagination.
