The "Sixes" in the Tarot Deck reflect the fact
that six is located at the centre of the Kabbalist Tree of Life - which
implies harmony and communication.
In the case of the Six of Cups, many traditional decks depict images
of children enjoying a positive childhood in an affluent setting surrounded
by flowers and rich symbolism. Some writers refer to these children
(usually male and female) as two childlike aspects of ourselves. This
is a joyous card.
The Six of Cups may bring us many small promptings, and positive reminders:
To appreciate all the small joys in our situation (take time to smell
the flowers !); view the situation from an optimistic, almost child-like
perspective - don't be cynical; and listen to your child within.
