Knight of Cups – The Bowerbird and Bonnie
Bonnie the Sulphur-Crested Cockatoo perches nearby, crest raised in wonder, as the male Bowerbird unveils his masterpiece — a shimmering bower lined with treasures of sky-blue. Every petal, pebble, and ribbon has been chosen with care, an offering of beauty and intention.
This card invites you to move through the world as the Bowerbird does — led by vision, romance, and the art of heartfelt connection. The Knight of Cups travels on the currents of emotion and imagination, bringing dreams into form. He reminds you that your gestures, when infused with sincerity, have the power to enchant and to heal.
Bonnie’s astonishment mirrors what happens when we truly witness another being’s devotion to their craft. Awe opens the heart and calls forth our own creative spirit.
Message:
Follow your heart’s calling, but bring your art into tangible form. Express love through beauty, ritual, and care. The Knight of Cups whispers — “Lead with feeling, and let your creations speak for your soul.”
Reversed:
Beware of drifting too deeply into illusion. Dreams must have roots to bloom.
