Within the Western Hermetic tradition, there are rituals and practices designed to address emotional imbalance and dispel feelings of disappointment or depression. Here is a structured approach using Hermetic principles, integrating visualization, planetary influences, and Qabalistic correspondences.

Purpose: To transmute the negative emotional energy of disappointment (as reflected in the Thoth Tarot 5 of Cups) into spiritual clarity and emotional resilience.

Preparation:

1. Timing: Perform during a waxing moon for emotional restoration or on a day ruled by the Sun (Sunday) to invoke vitality.
2. Tools:
   • A yellow or gold candle (symbolizing Tiphereth on the Tree of Life, associated with harmony and the Sun).
   • A cup of purified water (symbolizing the emotional element of Water).
   • Frankincense or rose incense (to invoke healing energies and balance).
   • A small dark mirror (optional, for self-reflection).
3. Tarot Card Focus: Place the 5 of Cups on your altar facing the dark mirror as a reminder of the energy being transformed.

Ritual Steps:

1. Opening the Ritual:

   • Face the East and perform the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram (LBRP) to clear the space and align your energies.

2. Invocation of Tiphereth's Energy:

   • Light the yellow or gold candle and say: “I invoke the light of Tiphereth, the harmony and healing of the Sun, to restore balance and dispel the shadows of disappointment within me. Let the rays of divine beauty fill my heart.”

3. Meditation with the 5 of Cups:

   • Hold the card and focus on its imagery. Visualize the spilled cups representing your disappointments. See them being absorbed by the Earth, where they are transmuted into fertile energy.
   • Shift your focus to the upright cups in the background (on the card) as symbols of new opportunities and potential.

4. Water Element Cleansing:

   • Hold the cup of water and say: “By the power of the element of Water, I cleanse and release all stagnant emotions, transforming sorrow into understanding and disappointment into growth.”
   • Dip your fingers into the water and anoint your heart center, imagining the cleansing power filling your emotional body.

5. Visualization and Affirmation:

   • Close your eyes and visualize golden sunlight pouring into your heart chakra. See it radiating outward, dispelling all heaviness.
   • Repeat this affirmation: “I release the past, I embrace the present, and I open my heart to the beauty of life. From the darkness of despair, I rise into the light of clarity.”

6. Mirror Reflection (Optional):

   • Look into the dark mirror, acknowledge your reflection, and say: “I see the divine within me. I am whole, I am loved, I am free.”

7. Closing the Ritual:

   • Extinguish the candle and say: “This work is complete. Let the balance of Tiphereth guide me forward in love and strength. So mote it be.”
   • Perform the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram again to close the space.

Post-Ritual Integration:

• Journaling: Write about the feelings or insights that arose during the ritual.
• Affirmations: Continue reciting positive affirmations daily to reinforce the new emotional state.
• Nature Connection: Spend time near water (lakes, rivers, or the sea) to harmonize your emotions.

By integrating these Hermetic practices, you align your inner state with the Qabalistic energies of harmony and balance, dispelling disappointment and fostering emotional strength.
