In this episode of Cuppa Terrific, Sheree continues the Seasonal Ascent with a dream that unfolds in two distinct movements — one grounded in care and waiting, the other expansive and cosmic in perspective.

The episode opens with a dream set in a flower shop, where stone flowers, planting bulbs, and caretaking converge around themes of rest, readiness, and timing. From there, the dream shifts into a bird’s-eye view of the world, where sprites descend through a cosmic waterfall, their life courses seemingly established with ease — while one figure wanders below, carrying a roof that doesn’t yet fit anywhere.

Through gentle reflection and symbolic exploration, this episode sits with a deeply human question:
What happens when we know what we want before the world is ready to receive it?

Rather than rushing toward answers, this conversation honors waiting as a meaningful season — one that asks for attention, patience, and perspective rather than force.

The episode includes a quiet tarot reflection on The Hanged Man, a card that speaks to pause, suspension, and insight gained through stillness.

If you’ve ever felt early for your own life, out of place in time, or caught between knowing and becoming, this episode offers companionship — not solutions.

In This Episode

  • A two-part dream exploring care, timing, and perspective
  • Stone flowers, planting bulbs, and resting inside the work
  • A cosmic waterfall and the illusion of effortless life paths
  • The experience of carrying something meaningful before it has a place
  • A listener reflection for those who feel “early” rather than lost
  • Tarot reflection: The Hanged Man

Reflection Questions

  • What am I carrying right now that already feels complete, even if it can’t be placed yet?
  • Where in my life might waiting be an act of care rather than avoidance
  • What part of me is asking to rest before it moves again?
  • If I trusted timing instead of urgency, what might soften?
