Happy Thursday, Angelorum fam! Our card of the day is the 3 of Cups (Mercury in Cancer). It is a card that I relate to the concept of soul family.
The Suit of Cups corresponds with Archangel Gabriel. The 3 of Cups is a card of joy and abundance, signifying celebrations, community, and emotional bonding. When this card appears as the card of the day, it emphasises the importance of connection and the beauty of coming together with others in harmony and happiness. Today, we might experience increased sociability, a sense of belonging, or an urge to express gratitude for the relationships in our lives.
On a 3 of Cups day, consider taking these actions to engage fully with the energy of this card:
- Organise a Gathering: Invite friends or family over for a meal or a casual get-together. It’s a perfect time to reconnect and build joyful memories.
- Express Appreciation: Reach out to people who have made a positive impact in your life and express your gratitude. A simple message or a thoughtful gift can deepen bonds.
- Participate in Community Events: Look for events in your community such as social gatherings, festivals, or workshops. Engaging with your community can bring a sense of belonging where you live.
- Connect with Archangel Gabriel: Ask Archangel Gabriel to guide you into deeper levels of creativity and authentic self-expression. This is how your soul family finds you.
Relating the 3 of Cups to My Life Experience
With Saturn in the 11th House, friendships and connecting with my soul family have eluded me all of my life. I think I have found somewhere I belong, only to find out it was another pipedream as I tend to rebel against groupthink. As things stand, I do have a couple of friends fairly closeby but my true soul family doesn’t live anywhere near me and I don’t drive. This should be a card of joy but for me, it often feels bittersweet because of the limitations imposed on my social life by stern Saturn.
However, that doesn’t mean I think I will never live in harmony with my soul family in real life. Saturn can sometimes make things mature later in life. That is certainly what I’m still holding out for. And even if that doesn’t happen, I take great comfort in my marriage which is a 3 of Cups one and worthy of celebration every single day.
Having a group of genuine friends, whether online or IRL is something to be extremely grateful for. Some of the people I have never even met IRL are so very dear to me. I even include authors and video content makers in this category, especially the ones who strive to create an online soul family. It truly is priceless.
Blocks to Connecting with Our Soul Family
While the WWW purports to make us all better connected, I can’t help but feel it’s had the opposite effect, especially since 2020. And in the last 12 months, we have seen an explosion of AI-generated content, making the sense of being disconnected even deeper. This is why I feel it’s becoming increasingly important to show up as my true, authentic self and to make my voice heard. How else will my soul family find me?

I pray for soul family daily. Like you I tend to rebel against groupthink as well.
I’m grateful for the WWW because I have been able to find like minded souls but it’s still a lonely journey . Sometimes you’d like to “do things” with others but there’s no one you relate to.
I feel your pain. 🙂

I trust we will find our respective soul families in divine timing. Maybe we had to learn some stuff first.
True friends IRL are hard to come by, as you say, and precious. I have spent 3 years thinking a neighbour and I were good friends, only to find out that wasn’t the case. It s hard to move forward, but I am slowly doing so. Thanks Raven x

I’m so sorry to hear that, Jan. It’s tough but it’s better to know than to be under the illusion… Thank you so much for stopping by to leave a comment, I truly appreciate it! x
