Walking Away from the Trauma, Anchoring in the Love: A Day 44 Journey into Purity
Tarot Journey Day 44: The 8 of Cups & The Compassion Rune
There comes a moment on the path of self-sovereignty where you have to look at the emotional landscape around you and make a definitive choice. In the Tarot, that moment is perfectly captured by the 8 of Cups. It’s the card of the conscious departure. It’s the realisation that certain spaces, certain dynamics, and certain cycles no longer have the capacity to feed your soul.
When the 8 of Cups hits my radar, Craig David’s track “Walking Away” instantly starts singing in my mind. It’s a rhythmic reminder that removing yourself from negativity isn’t an act of anger—it’s an act of profound self-preservation.
Today, as I navigate my ongoing commitment to a smoke-free, alcohol-free lifestyle, that sneaky grip of old habits managed to get the best of me. But the medicine of today’s alignment gave me an entirely different track to run on.
The Illusion of Conflict vs. The Truth of the Household
We often get caught in the 3D illusions of social friction, hidden triggers, and "frenemy" dynamics that try to throw us into overdrive. It’s easy to let those negative attacks consume our creative energy. But today, my I Ching alignment brought forward Hexagram 37 (The Family / The Household), moving into Hexagram 1 (The Creative).
This alignment reminded me exactly where my true strength and shielding come from.
I am incredibly blessed and lucky to have been raised by the family I was raised with. Family love is a sacred anchor. My brothers carry a fierce, protective, paternal energy that wraps around me in the spiritual realm, acting as a buffer against external chaos. And my brothers and sisters, with whom I had the pleasure of growing up, are everything.
Today, the message of the 8 of Cups is crystal clear: I am walking away from the trauma in my life, but I am never walking away from the love.
Trauma drains you. Love sustains you. Love is the exact frequency that keeps me in personal overflow.

What Happens When You Focus on the Small Wins
To anchor this frequency, I want to share something deeply personal and vulnerable with you today. It is the very first song I created using AI, titled "Like Home."
This track is intimately woven with the "Like Home" card from my deck, Overflow: The Selfish Oracle, which is fundamentally based on the healing system of the Love Rune (Perth).
"True love starts within. When you take care of yourself, your love overflows to others effortlessly. Don’t pour from an empty cup—fill yours first."
This song is a musical manifestation of that exact truth. It is about returning to the original vibration of safety, innocence, and pure creative force. When the outside world gets loud or combative, music becomes the sanctuary where we can reset our frequency and remember who we are.
Listen to the track, let the frequency wash over you, and ask yourself: What phantom cups of trauma or old habits am I being called to walk away from today so I can step into my true creative power?
