Knight of Disks
.
Got the urge for some tea… and all hell broke loose:
Bun, butter, sausage, cookies, sweets…
On the whole, turned out quite well…
About three kilos' worth…
.
The Knight, according to the Kabbalah, is going or being with the Flow, with a stream, a trend.
An object, a process, where the Force has swept up the Stalker and carried him off.
Accordingly, the Knight of Disks is going/being with the Flow of Matter or Finance.
For example, a bullet flying.
.
Please, note:
The distinctive feature of the Knight card is that the object remains still and motionless, like the Knight. While, at the same time, being in motion, like the horse on which the Knight is sitting.
This contradiction makes the Knight card immediately recognizable.

Zero of Cups
.
The cat came in from the room and, in passing, informed me that the Christmas tree had lost all its holiday lights, half its toys, consciousness, and had completely collapsed a bit.
.
Zero, according to the Kabbalah, is hidden, dormant potential, or something small and insignificant.
Cups are emotions, feelings, and memories.
Thus, the Zero Cups is the dormant potential of feelings, emotions, and memories. Or some insignificant memory or emotion.
For example, it may symbolize any sleeping living creature.
