The Cups represent the element of Water—emotions, relationships, intuition, and the heart's desires. These cards flow through the depths of feeling, from the first stirrings of love to profound emotional fulfillment.
Cups cards dive deep into the realm of feelings, relationships, and emotional experiences. They represent your inner world—how you feel, how you love, and how you connect with others on an emotional and spiritual level.
As a Water suit, Cups energy is fluid, receptive, and healing. Water adapts to its container, flows around obstacles, and can be both gentle and powerfully transformative. This element governs the emotional and spiritual aspects of life.
Cups often relate to matters of the heart, emotional well-being, and relationship dynamics. They ask you to consider: How do you feel? What does your heart desire? How are your relationships nourishing you? Multiple Cups in a reading suggest strong emotional themes and the importance of listening to your heart's wisdom.
