The Eye
Awareness, protection, and being watched.
Positive meaning
The eye is the classic symbol of protection — something or someone is watching over you. It also points to insight sharpening: pay attention to what you notice this week; a truth is about to become visible.
Warning or shadow meaning
An eye can also warn that you are being observed by someone who does not wish you well. Guard private information; trust your instinct about a person you have recently met.
Position in the cup
Near the handle: the awareness concerns you directly. Opposite: it involves someone at a distance. Multiple eyes: gossip or public attention.
