Coffee is brewing, waiting to be poured into the empty cup on the counter. A spiritual guide sits patiently, urging you to begin while the sun shines outside. On the side, enormous snowdrops have blossomed, indicating the first tentative steps of spring. While the Coffee is number 42, this card comes before the others. Like an unhatched egg, it contains all the potential for the journey. The cup is empty, but you are urged to fill it, to drink it and to be on the journey. Like the prophet Muhammad who was given coffee(قهوة) by the Archangel Jibreel, you are urged to begin. The Coffee in a reading tells you that now is the time to be naive and courageous. Set on a new adventure and do not worry about the consequences. It is time; the coffee is ready.

If the Coffee appears reversed, it is a warning. The coffee will spill, and it may burn you or others. Be careful not to disregard the consequences of your actions. Your eagerness for freedom and new beginnings may harm others or yourself. Now, you are being asked for consistency and patience. There is a time to be brave and to set off on new paths and a time to be reliable and patient. Wisdom lies in knowing the difference.

Remember well that when the Storm appears in front of you, you are not the tree but the doves escaping.
An ancient maritime pine tree towers in the night. Above, the all-seeing Storm is unleashing lightning, cutting the tree down as birds escape. The Storm, as the name suggests, is a complicated card to receive. It indicates a profound disruption, a complete reset of the known. The situation may seem grim at times, but you must understand that the change brought is ultimately positive. You may find this hard to believe, but this card indicates the demolition and toppling of a structure that can feel quite devastating. However, new growth will come from this, and the old cannot last forever, lest it becomes decrepit. Remember well that when the Storm appears in front of you, you are not the tree but the doves escaping.

In this situation, the Storm that topples the pine tree is coming from within. The issue is within your response to the situation and your worries within your head. Your perception is bringing you great pain. Take care not to become a vortex of negativity, be mindful of your feelings and take responsibility for how your responses affect you and those around you.

When Christmas appears reversed, you may have lost your hope. Life's challenges are overwhelming and leave you questioning everything and everybody. When this card appears reversed in a reader, it is a beacon over your disconnection. Your faith in the possibility of a comforting and fulfilling life is weaning as daily routines become dreary. It is an important alarm, a light shining on the parts of your life that do not align with your joyful purpose. Now is not the time to push harder, as you may deplete your energies further. It's time to nourish yourself and your life at a deeper level and rest.

A wolf drinks from a pond filled with blood. Close by, a wild dog turns away from the pond to face the moon that illuminates everything around them. Away from them, a crab floats on a leaf in the pond, rising from the subconscious. The Blood tells you that all is not what it seems. Unsettling as a nightmare can be, this card allows your inner wildness to be seen. The Blood represents witchcraft, spell-work and occult arts of any kind. Do not be fooled by the blood; nobody in this figure will come to harm. The moon shines its silvery light on the elements within a reality that are dishonest and manipulative. Uncomfortable questions must be asked, and someone may be just mad enough to think of them. Things are strange; it is usual to feel disorientated. Now is not the time for answers, but for wild magical practice.

When reversed, the Blood shows a moon shining in the front. The inner confusion is clearing. However, you may find yourself deprived of a mask you are not ready to let go of. Manipulation has been exposed, whether you were the victim or perpetrator. Things will soon be lighter, but first, they will be heavy. Mental health struggles as the truth emerges, and you initiate a process of complete honesty with yourself.

Laughter is reversed, but do not panic. Victory is just not as close as you thought it would be. A setback has brought you back into a quieter place. There is a key element missing before you may achieve the state of perfect joy. The effort will now need to be given to finding once again things that make your heart swell up with joy, the things that make you walk so light you feel you may just fly away. Follow them, and soon Laughter will come back.

A woman with rollers in her hair stands on a balcony, looking down, where a flock of ravens emerge from the darkness. This is a lofty card, as, like Lament and the Set Table, it carries the theme of accountability. In this particular case, it talks about being honest and thorough about yourself. The Gossiping Woman sees all of you and calls you to do the same. It is holding a mirror to your entire life, successes and failure. You must face the Gossiping Woman to liberate yourself and fly towards freedom. Moving forward unencumbered requires acknowledgement of the present moment and everything it carries.

Now the Gossiping Woman can not see you. This is an indication that you refuse to acknowledge the hurt or pain that was caused to you the two spinand the pain that you have caused yourself. However, you must own your mistakes and let them be. When the Gossiping Woman is reversed, it asks you to find forgiveness for yourself and others. It will be hard work and may take a great amount of time, but the Gossiping Woman watches and is rooting for you to free yourself of this burden.

Three friends are celebrating, drinking Good Wine and dancing on the world, surrounded by a crown of vines, representing victory. One holds a flag and another a wand, bringing your journey to a close. This is the end of the road, the last card in this deck. The spiritual guide that brought you Coffee now brings you here. The completion of the cycle and the celebration that comes thereafter. You have changed and grown, and now the energy of wholeness shines. Soon it will dissipate as life shifts into a new beginning, but for now, the Good Wine urges you to relish in your successes. One day you will surrender again to the flow and remember that you are the same person that started this journey filled with infinite possibilities.

The Good Wine may not be drunk yet; completion is not yet within reach. The end seemed in sight, but you tried cutting corners, and there is still work to be done. The result will only bring fulfilment, if the effort has been thorough and earnest. Keep dreaming, keep working, and soon the Good Wine will be yours.
