The Five of Cups Mala embodies the depth of lifes lessons and embracing all the colors of life's spectrum. 🌈 Wear the Five of Cups Mala as a reminder slow down and enjoy the rainbows in life! It is a talisman of the light and the dark, and finding joy in the present. I've woven symbolic elements into this Mala like the yin yang charm, the skulls and the dragon guru bead.
Intention - Five of Cups : Pain bears growth
Represents - Five of Cups: Spectrum, perspective, growth, negativity
More About the Tarot Inspired Mini Collection
The source of inspiration for August's Mini Mala Collection is the Radiant Wild Tarot Deck. For this collection, I chose to harness the magic of 5 Tarot cards into Malas.
I have used the Radiant Wilds Tarot Deck for years and this Mini Collection is my gratitude to the deck for its guidance and beauty in my life. I pulled the cards over 5 days and created the pieces in the order I pulled the cards.
