Minor Arcana Cups

 

The Meanings Of The Suit Of Cups

The Suit of Cups Tarot cards deal with the emotional level of consciousness and are associated with love, feelings, relationships and connections.

The Suit of Cups is associated with the element of water. Water is fluid, agile and ‘in flow' but it's also very powerful and formative. It can be soft and gentle, like waves lapping against the sandy shore, or it can be powerful and even forceful, like a raging river.

The element of water is symbolic of fluidity, feelings and emotions, intuition, relationships, healing, and cleansing. It is a feminine element and reflects the subtle power that often resides within women. It is receptive, adaptable, purifying and flowing.

In a deck of playing cards, Cups corresponds to Hearts



The Tarot suit of Cups is typically associated with the element of water–after all, water goes in a cup–and is a suit that often indicates emotion and feelings, as well as our relationships with others.  Cups represent the vessel, and the ‘element’ is water.

The Suit of Cups deals with the traditionally feminine and emotional side of things.  This represents emotional thought over logical thought, and are also associated with spiritual matters and belief. 



This suit corresponds to the astrological Water signs of Pisces, Cancer and Scorpio.


Cups represent the medieval Clerical class, indicating spiritual authority, contemplation and inner feelings. These are cards of emotion and reflection. They are also known as Chalices, and have become Hearts in a modern deck of cards.

If you see a lot of Cups in a reading, it could mean that the spread you’re reading is a very emotional one, possibly very personal to the subject of the spread. It can mean that the seeker, or the person that is having the reading, is seeking solutions to questions related to love, family matters, or other interpersonal relationships.
