Is Love in Your Cup?

Is Love in Your Cup?

          A tarot student once asked, “What does it mean if the majority of the cards in my tarot spread show the suit of cups?”  

          “It’s important to drink from the cup of love,” was my reply.

          A different answer to this question can involve exploring the meaning of the specific cards in the layout.  However, this question could also be answered by examining the the meaning of the symbols on the suit of cups. What are the cups communicating to us?

         Traditionally, the suit of cups most often involves love, passion, and relationships. It’s identified with the element water, the emotions, depth of feelings, receptivity, imagination, the intuition, and the subconscious.  When there is a predominance of the suit of cups in a tarot spread, its message involves a watery or emotional inquiry.  It visually shows the importance of discussing your client’s heart-felt needs and puts their longings and desires in the limelight.  Even if the topic of romance isn’t the main question being asked, the person receiving the reading may need to get more in touch with their feelings and the truth of what’s affecting their inner reality.  Listening to feelings can play a strong role in decision making.

         A majority of this suit in a spread can indicate that life experiences are triggering emotional reactions. If the cards are mostly upright and illustrate positive or heart happy images such as we mostly find on the ace of cups, I might ask my client if he or she is falling in love or seeking advice about an on-going relationship.  When most of the cup cards in the spread are reversed, I may ask whether a relationship is in conflict or if there is tension invoked by emotional concerns.  Is the person who is getting the reading suffering from the pain of loss, focusing on a past relationship, or quarreling with a significant other?

         During the discussion of the potential meaning of the cup cards, it will become obvious if the person is anxious or secure, a victim or victor in love, and how you can best nourish your client’s sense of well-being. While viewing the spread to explore the path of the inner self, it may become possible to dive into the sea of the subconscious mind and find truths buried under the surface of conscious awareness.  Most often, a key to unveiling the message of this suit is to inwardly question, “What are you presently drinking from the cup of love?”
