This card displays your obvious identity, the part of you that everyone knows.
8 of Wands
The sketch quotes the picture from the Raider-Waite deck. Eight wands are flying through the air.
This card shows unconscious driving forces that neither you nor your company is aware of about you. This is the Great Unknown.
Temperance
The path through the underworld can be seen which eventually leads into light. The path is edged with lilies, the underworld flowers. The abstract archangel Michael is helping to find the right composition for the flow of energy, in other words is on the way through the subconscious (forgotten) to keep a minimal contact going with the conscious e.g., by transmission (documents...)
The secrets you keep from others are shown by this card.
2 of Cups
The two faces and the two cups seem together to form an entirety. The difference between them is shown, among other things, through the colours, which, in each case, mirror the opposite.
Two fish in the water also suggest dualism in the unity. In the same way, the heart at the top, made of two parts, becomes one at the bottom. The suggestion of an angel above the heads supports the same theme.
This is your Blind Spot. This is what you asked about – what you wished to be made aware of by this reading.
Ace of Cups
Water is formed from a cloud, due to condensation, and is dripping into a cup. Through this the relationship between water and its opposite energy air is portrayed. If we look carefully all the four elements are present here: water=Water, cup= Earth, cloud= Air and the liberated energy = Fire.
