The King of Cups is the ultimate family man. He’s a leader, a lover, and someone who holds space for the people he loves. This king is willing to offer a drink and a nice long conversation. Back to the Cards
The Queen of Cups is a fountain of love, connection, and emotional warmth, inwardly. She may be a tad reserved toward the wider world, but she cherishes her people. This Queen would love to have a nice chat in a quiet corner. Though she has goodwill and positive regard for lots and lots of people […]
The Knight of Cups is a hopeless romantic. Their main motivation is connection – although, sometimes they are so serious and intense about their pursuit of this love. This can be endearing, and can be the “right” choice, but it can also be overdone. The Knight risks coming on a touch too strong, with perhaps […]
The Page of Cups is a messenger offering a glass, here to tell you about a great love, friend, or even scene partner. She is excited, ready to tell you *everything* and absolutely gush about this exciting new person, but they may not get all the facts right. In their excitement, they are tripping over […]
The 10 of Cups tells the story of a wild, passionately out of body kind of love. This is the apex state, where the angst and uncertainty is passed, where this connection can be fully enjoyed with the absolute understanding that the emotional relationship is mutual. Back to the Cards
The 9 of Cups is sitting comfortably on a throne, nine glasses lined up behind her. This is the Wish card – she’s connected, confident, happy with her emotional landscape, and ready to share a good drink with her favorite people. Back to the Cards
The 8 of Cups is a hint that it’s time to walk away. Though everything is technically right, it’s not right on a soul level – and honestly, you know it. It’s time to sever the connection. Everything is lined up how it’s supposed to be. It still isn’t fulfilling everything it needs to fulfill. […]
The 7 of Cups joyfully considers all the possibilities in this connection. It can be whatever the involved parties want it to be. Play with roles a little, see what lights y’all up, and keep it fresh by trying something just a bit… different. Back to the Cards
The 6 of Cups whispers quietly of nostalgia. It remembers the past through rose-colored glasses, painting history as “simpler times” and pulling focus away from the present. Sometimes this card brings comfort with it, and a chance to ease into a familiar story; sometimes it shows a myopic fidelity to a reality that no longer […]
The 5 of Cups tells us about the futility of crying over spilled milk. There are things that are desperately broken here; that is for sure. Three of these cups are shattered, their contents scattered, but we should really be looking at those two remaining cups. What’s in them? What can be salvaged from these […]
The 4 of Cups is trying to decide if she really wants this connection, or if, perhaps, there is one that will fit better. She’s retreating a bit until she has made her decision. She wants to be sure of her next move, but it’s difficult – there are three cups that are all perfectly […]
The 3 of Cups shows us friendship. It’s old friends, sitting around a patio table, smoking cigars, sharing stories, and laughing together. This card celebrates the time we spend together, the people who are important to us, and the beginnings of a community that will hold us. Back to the Cards
The 2 of Cups takes the first blush of relation with another, and takes that first step to genuinely connect with that special other. The night that the 2 reveals itself, perhaps, will be the anniversary that you celebrate years from now. Perhaps. Perhaps it’s the butterfly-winged plunge we take when we lean into vulnerability […]
The Ace of Cups is a flirtatious little thing. She speaks to the beginning of a connection, the first sweet kiss, the butterflies at the beginning. She shows up when we feel New Relationship Energy, and she brings with her the first blush of exciting connection. Back to the Cards
