3 Card Tarot Reading

The Seven Of Wands Tarot Card Meaning

The Seven of Wands is depicted by a young man who appears to be standing on a precipice fighting for his land.

There are six enemies attacking below. If you have received this card in your reading, this symbolizes success against opposition and a certain victory through courage. Right now you are gifted with added perspective that your opposition does not have. You can see farther and wider so you can prepare for a potential attack if need be. This is an excellent card to see you through challenges so that you can come out the winner.

The important thing to do now is to make your point of view, or position clear and then stand by what you feel is the most important right now and do not compromise or try to settle for less. You are under a certain amount of pressure, but you have more flexibility than those that are putting that pressure on you, in this you have the upper hand. In time you will be able to understand the situation more clearly because the Seven of Wands is a card of inner strength and force of will. You are capable of pushing through any adversity.

One of the aspects of receiving this card is the notion that at this time you will need assistance from others. One of the great things about not living alone on an island is that we are able to bounce thoughts and ideas off of one another to better our life experiences. To learn, to grow, to be strong; to find what makes us happy and what does not and to learn to cast away more of what does not. With the assistance of others you will meet the obstacles that you are running into head on and push past them. You must not try to fight this alone, even though you are capable. There is something you need to learn from asking for help right now. You are a natural born leader in this instance, however, so others will look to you for instruction. In this they will help you and you will help them.

As it stands, because of your intense bravery and willingness to fight for what you believe in, you are already enlightened enough to understand that the environment and everything in it is all a part of one life spirit. This means that your ‘enemies’ so to speak, have as much of a relationship with you as your brothers and sisters. Together we are operating in the same sphere at the same time in order to progress at our varying levels. Understanding this concept will bring you more strength. Meditate on this.

Your belief systems may be put to the test now, because you have something to lose, but continue to have confidence in yourself and in those that you trust and you will have success in your endeavors. By confronting this challenge head on, you will be correcting any flaws that might exist in your beliefs to become more ironclad. The Seven of Wands is the almighty defender, ready to fight regardless of odds. This is what you are experiencing in your life. These are the odds that you must match. You can only fight for what you fiercely believe in. Consider who you feel you are fighting against at this point in time, are you treating yourself with trust and honesty? What about others? Do you trust others to be strong enough to help you? Examine these questions and see where that puts you in your current circumstance.

The Seven of Wands in Love

The Seven of Wands shows up in a reading to help you through some painstaking struggles that you are having to experience at this point in time. Basically, this man is fighting for survival, to protect himself and to protect the ones that he loves. And he does that at all costs. This is the same for you and your love life. Now you are fighting to save something that you believe in. If you are in a relationship, this shows a potential for a struggle to keep the authenticity and morale of the relationship which can at times be exhausting and challenging. This is a good time to ask for help in the form of relationship/marriage counseling. See if there is anything that you can do to help make the relationship work. The work itself is what the Seven of Wands is here to help you with.

If you are single, then take into consideration what about your personal life you are treating as a struggle. Why is it hard for you to meet people? What blocks are you experiencing? Who is metaphorically, or literally, stopping you? You must remove these road blocks with the help of your friends in order to move forward in love.

The Seven of Wands in Health

When the Seven of Wands appears in relation to your health, it is of key importance that you slow down. Right now you have a large amount of mental struggles that are causing you pain. You are thinking too much and that is making it hard for you to accomplish what you need. Your body may suffer from physical aches and pains due to the fact that you are holding on so tightly to the frustrations of your experience. You must let this go so that you can find healing.

The Seven of Wands in Work and Wealth

The Seven of Wands in Work and Wealth speaks strongly to a new wave of competition in your business and trade life. These are challenges that you can definitely meet, but you want to make sure that you ally your forces with someone who understands where you are coming from. For example, if you have an idea about how to create a business, you will want to get a lawyer friend involved to make sure that you do everything right. The more friends like this that you have helping you, the better.

The Seven Of Wands As Feelings

This card in love readings as feelings means that they are unwilling to give up freedoms and begin a relationship. This card can indicate giving up their ground and moving towards being emotionally defensive and focusing on their mind. The person is determined in the choice that they have made and nothing will change their mind. For feelings, this can indicate they are in a corner and they cannot get out of it. The more they push the person the more they will back off and might end up falling off a cliff and never to be seen again.

The Seven Of Wands in the Reversed Position

Because of the fact that you are a natural-born leader and the Seven of Wands is encouraging that side of you to thrive, there are going to be points when others are intimidated by your leadership skills and will desire to challenge or fight with you. You will have to put up with some jealousy which will be inconvenient for you. But again the importance here is to tap into your intuition to make the right decisions on how to handle these situations while still keeping your character intact.

The Emperor Tarot Card Meaning

The Emperor is the counterpart of the Empress, but where the Empress is care free in her abundance, the Emperor is almost strict with his own form of stability and can symbolize many different things depending on the context in which he represents himself. 

If you receive this card during a general reading, then the Emperor is going to provide you with a solid, continual energy to benefit your life. He does not leave a lot of room for excess change or random behavior. The Emperor is pragmatic, regal and stately. His energy is full of action and drive, and there is no room for mistakes. This is a card of possession, domination and authority and says that currently in your life you need direction. Often the Emperor will reflect an internal compass, a card that is attempting to show you the way. To be something and to know something is entirely different then being capable of doing something. Embracing the capabilities of the Emperor assists you in understanding this level of authority. Now is a time to trust your own instincts and skills to get a much needed job done. Do not rely on others to complete what you can do yourself. Do not expect that others are going to do as good of a job as you are.

You are in a time of your life that your own limits may be tested and while you are feeling run down or underappreciated you still need to push through. There is no room for error. The Emperor points his glare at you in a reading stating that you also may be pushing others too hard. The message for the card is for you and you alone. You need to be responsible for your actions at this time and reliance on others will likely result in a disaster of some kind.

The depiction of the Emperor on the card is full of metaphorical images that will help you to assist what the role of the Emperor is in your life. He sits in a stone throne that is unyielding but efficient with the Martian ram heads signifying his masculine role with mars. He is forward momentum and drive. How can you focus more on pushing yourself forward? His beard is long, symbolizing his many years full of wisdom. Many comment on his metal shoes. One would ask why he isn’t wearing shoes that are more comfortable. The answer is simple, his shoes are an example of authority, of procedure, they are part of his uniform and that symbol is constant and never changing. You will benefit from adding this level of professionalism in your life.

The Emperor encourages us to focus on the reasoning and critically thinking mind. What is feasible and is reasonable is the world that the Emperor lives in. When you receive this card in a reading, the Emperor commands that you get rid of all form of fantasy and fill your head with the facts. Handle your affairs in a systematic way and do not encourage room for error. Anything that you can do to be responsible for the standing in your life is imperative now. The effort you put in at this time will be greatly rewarded.

The Emperor in Love

In love, the Emperor is symbolic of monogamy, of longevity and consistency. When this card appears in your love spread you can count on being blessed with something stable and dependable coming your way. If you are already in a relationship and you are having problems, the Emperor says that you can depend on the situation to improve and to remain stable at least for the interim. Consider what he has to teach you about being a solid influence in your life and in the lives of others.

This card can be confusing if you are looking for love. For a woman looking for love it will often show an older male coming into her life and instruct her to be open to new possibilities. However, for a male seeking love it tells you that you need to be more forward in your search, be willing to share your feelings, and warns of waiting too long for the right woman. It is likely that you are holding back your feelings to a woman and now is the time to speak up before your opportunity is missed.

The Emperor As Feelings

In terms of feelings, the Emperor is king - he stands proud, a powerful and compassionate figure. If you ask for someone’s feelings and it is connected to strength and emotion, respect and understanding are associated with his feelings. As he speaks, his presence fills the air with authority. Listening to others, he experiences their stories like his own, because in his heart there is understanding. A great deal of emotion can be evoked by the Emperor in those around him. Every place he enters is filled with a special kind of feeling generated by his words that convey understanding, assurance, trust, and love. When the Emperor rises for feelings it can indicate that this person feels that you are traditional but have control over a “love” situation.

The Emperor As Love Reconciliation

In asking if someone will get back with you and pull the Emperor, for love reconciliation, then it shows that the male who is in the situation will make his moves and try to reconcile.

The Emperor in Health

When the Emperor comes up in a reading where health is mentioned, several possibilities present themselves. First, this can be a sign of good health over all, that you are well and will continue to be well. However, if this card comes up reversed regarding health, then you will want to consider the negative effects that being overly routine or constricted is having on your overall health. This could show up in tension headaches or other stress related issues. One can be too authoritarian or too rigid. The Emperor is there to teach you to bring yourself back into balance and to allow the positive influence of stability to come to your aid.

The Emperor in Work and Wealth

The Emperor in business ventures exists to show you the support in your current workplace and to bless you with up and coming possibilities that will add more stability in your life. If you are unsure that you are making the right move in your industry by accepting a promotion, the Emperor says to take the job if it will encourage longevity in the workplace. He also represents a long-term opportunity coming your way financially such as in making money off the sale of a house, inheritance, or cashing in of stocks and bonds. The positive energy in this card is very strong concerning finance and work. The Emperor has worked for what he has and with him in a reading, he brings a deal of luck and fortune through experience and reputation.

The Emperor As An Action/Advice

The Emperor is about making sure that you control what you are doing. Think of yourself withstanding the raging winds and overcoming obstacles no-one else can. The message here is that if we trust in ourselves and open ourselves up to advice, there will never be a difficulty too great for us to overcome. This tarot card is a message to make sure that you have the strength to overcome anything. It is about taking boldness and courage from the emperor, and your journey shall have no bounds.

The Emperor As Yes Or No

The Emperor in a Yes Or No reading draws a duality that many people find difficult to comprehend. In one aspect, a dichotomy of decisions holds weight - and this is the path of 'Yes', or plunge down into darkness of 'No'? Even so, despite all the complexity, a ray of light shines through: despite its formidable appearance, all roads lead to the same place, and ultimately, decision-making depends on courage. Life often comes down to choices, not just for ourselves but also for those around us - so in a Yes Or No reading he is saying follow your heart with bravery and grace. 

The Emperor As A Person

The Emperor as a person is a gentle soul, wise and kind with a vast knowledge. A leader of great strength and ability, the Emperor had a strong sense of justice and fairness that he applied equally to all. His words were measured, succinct, and inspiring towards those in need. Through compassion and understanding, he viewed the world. It was the Emperor's individualism and commitment to rule by consensus rather than decree that made him unique among rulers. 

The Emperor In the Past Position

In my tarot card above, you can see the emperor embodies great power and radiates strength. His throne is elevated above the masses and his word became law. Every day he sits on top of the throne, surveying the land he dominates over with a gaze that would both humble. Such were the days that an emperor held reign in this ancient past; before modern society whittled such grandeur down to hardly anything more than myth.

he Emperor In the Present Position

As he stands in this current position with a heavy burden of responsibility on his shoulders, it is a strange twist of events that brought the emperor to this point in history. Despite his tendency to reign over grandiose kingdoms, he now relies on the wisdom and guidance of the people to guide him. The only way we can write a future worth dreaming about is to embrace our collective history, a future where the emperor's presence is welcomed and revered as it was centuries ago. Even though we may never know how he arrived here or what secrets lie beneath him, this majestic figure remains an inspiration to your life right now, showing perseverance can overcome even the greatest obstacles.

The Emperor In the Future/Outcome Position

Future worlds will be mysterious and wondrous, with the emperor at the center. His actions will resonate throughout generations, reaching out to souls. A day of darkness will never fall on the realm under his command because he will command such immense power. As a result, all will pay homage to him, thanking him for leading them along the righteous path that only emperors can tread. In the future, he will be omnipotent and justice will be swiftly delivered to those who deserve it. In this infinite universe, the emperor in the future will undoubtedly be a blessing for you going forward. It is a sign that you can overcome any obstacle with his help.

The Emperor As Friendship Or Family

I always find this is normally about a male friend is some way, of course, friends become family. In the same way that brothers, daughters, sisters, and mothers bond, so does this friendship (if you draw the emperor). For family, again it can mean a Father figure or someone in that position. It represents someone around you who has that sort of emperor vibe and will reveal the truth.

Reversed Emperor In A Reading

When the Emperor appears in a reading in the reversed position, there is a loss of control possible in your near future. Perhaps being overly structured has taken a toll on your existence and you have begun receiving injuries due to this lack of flowing energy. Consider taking some time off so that you may be able to get through the frustrating phase. Pay attention to paperwork and ensure that you have only trustworthy people around you. With the positive energies in the reversed position, the energies that would usually be of an aid to you can actually be a hindrance. You will likely find that you are being overconfident or rude and not knowing it. Especially in a professional sense – the reversed position does not bode well for work and finance. Do what you can to get your finances on track by setting up a budget that is reasonable and workable. Work hours that are conducive. Overworking, overbooking, and being overextended are often serious issues when the Emperor is reversed.

Love And Romance - Emperor Reversed

When the Emperor reversed is involved, romance can turn. As unflinching rulers float wildly in the air like dandelion seeds, they will become unpredictable like dandelion seeds. If you are fortunate enough to be touched by its presence, you know not to take it for granted; the whims of fate may bring it too soon or keep it away too long. There is no doubt that even through upheaval and chaos, there is room to fully express heartfelt emotion without holding back when it comes to love and romance with the Emperor reversed.

Family And Home - Emperor Reversed

Upheaval and change are associated with the Emperor reversed when it comes to your home life. Life seems to flow along in a manner that is certain and reliable when we are strong and steadfast, with our families and homes providing us with comfort and security; however, when the Emperor flips, new ideas flow freely like a river altering the course of our lives through unrestrained inspiration. It can be hard to grapple with life --- sometimes you may feel like you are no longer in control, but this new energy can help us realize our dreams and connect with parts of ourselves that were dormant previously. Our loved ones can provide a harbor in the midst of rough seas, helping us understand this energetic wind that blows through our lives.

Work and Finances - Emperor Reversed

In my readings it is showing that stability seems to come at a price. Our ambitions for security and prosperity can seem suddenly illusive when the Emperor is reversed. Despite our hard work, we may not be able to provide ourselves with financial comfort, and any successes we achieve will only last a short time. Despite the fact that it's sometimes difficult to accept that money cannot provide all that we need and desire, the Emperor is saying you should seek security in other aspects of our lives instead: family, friends, and even yourself. Despite financial constraints, please remember there is still much joy to be found in moments when we allow ourselves time to reflect on intrinsic values that make life worth living.

Health and Wellness - Emperor Reversed

In the moments when we feel our power is reversed, it may seem simpler to succumb to the weight of our challenges than to overcome them. In order to truly care for ourselves and reclaim our health and wellness, we must train ourselves to meet those challenges head on. Self-empowerment is possible when we eliminate the obstacles that stalemate our wellbeing. We can cultivate thriving self-care and strength through headstrong fortitude in times of unrest. Despite uncertainty and opposition, we can achieve the truest form of health and wellness.

Personal Spirituality - Emperor Reversed

Traditionally, in my readings, this reversed card represents stagnation, resistance, and a lack of control over one's own actions. In the end, however, this could be seen as a chance to accept things as they are rather than try to force them. As a result, spiritual awakening is more of an organic process than something that is forced. The idea that everything happens for “a reason” gives us comfort even when it seems we have no control over our destiny - we just have to trust fate to bring us where we are suppose to be.

The Knight Of Cups Tarot Meaning

As the Knight of Cups reminds us, listening to the sweet, passionate sound of the violin allows us to tap into our depths and discover new paths to understanding ourselves and the world around us. While she stands on the barren land she creates authentic expressions with her physical effort while playing the violin. In order to be present in each moment, her spiritual horse encourages her to be mindful and aware. The inner journey of learning and playing the violin with precision requires commitment and dedication, just as relationships with others do.

You are a dedicated, motivated, emotional, tender, sensitive, and loving person. Prone to travel and constantly expanding yourself - you are close to family and friends even what would be known as a defender of honor as well as matters of the heart and loyalty. You are the person that everyone goes to for emotional support, and nurturing or loving care. The Knight of Cups is symbolic of a younger kind of love, but one that is greatly enhanced by the ability to take action. The Knight is innocent but is maturing, a student of life, she sacrifices her music for others in her path of wisdom. This is very much the same for you.

The Knight of Cups is depicted standing by the horse with golden armor that is not warlike, more artistic. She wears a flowers in her hair, signs of a dual sexed nature of Hermes.  This is a card one should choose to represent a young person with light brown hair and hazel eyes. There is an energy of a youth who is poetic and graceful, a dreamer. Someone will come charging into your life inviting, proposing. A new love, a bearer of new messages or a proposal.

The Knight of Cups is a representative of all things passionate regarding the heart. Moving past the youth of the Page who is only capable of experiencing deep emotions and mastering desires. There is a level of emotional security within this person. There is a great chance that you will be offered some kind of interesting and unexpected invitation, which will push you through an emotional experience that will have an opportunistic end. Your decisions are easy to make and don’t involve a lot of thought.

Whereas the Page of Cups would need to be coached through making the right decisions, the Knight of Cups has learned all of those lessons and has become much more accustomed to handling themselves with a level of grace and strength previously unavailable. The Knight of Cups brings out the lover in all of us. Representing Karmic attachment in relationships. The decisions you make are highly evolved for your place in life because you have allowed yourself to learn how to connect with your higher self and higher source energy.

The Knight of Cups is a dreamer, therefore, your life is currently being blessed with the ability to dream and dream big. But unlike the Page who is still trying to figure out how to put things into action, the Knight is well aware of the necessity of momentum in all things. You must become adept at making constant adjustments for yourself; flow in the direction that is being presented that resonates with your inner understanding. Fantasy is always exciting, but you have grown up to know that without reality it means nothing. When you deny your basic attachment to the world, your imagination is incapable of producing anything. Passiveness is something to be aware of, however, as this can be a way for you to deny the temptations that are disturbing your inner peace. Now what you must master is an inability to commit.

The Knight of Cups in Love

The Knight of Cups is able to figure out fantasy versus reality, with a full lust for life. But what is needed is to work on the ability to stay in one place. Sometimes it is necessary to both recognize the importance of movement in order to learn lessons, but one must also learn to understand the benefits of stability in relationships. Sometimes the Knight of Cups is known as the serial dater. The Knight will go from person to person enjoying the experience as well as keeping them from perpetuating.

In a sense, despite their ability to connect with what’s real, they are also afraid of what commitment might feel like. Their fears, however, are based on fantasy, and they need to learn to let that go. If you find that the Knight of Cups is representing you at this time, then you need to begin to ask yourself why it is that you are afraid or uninterested in commitment, and consider what you might get out of such a relationship. And if you happen to be one of the souls who are in love with someone like the Knight of Cups, then you must realize what you are dealing with. If the Knights are capable of pushing back their fears and learning from them, they are beautiful and wonderful lovers. But do not try to push them yourselves, it won’t work. If you are single right now, this is a positive tiding that you have someone lovely coming into your life. Embrace and welcome it when it comes.

Knight of Cups Love Reconciliation

If the Knight of Cups appears in your love and reconciliation reading, you should take it as a very positive sign! This card is strongly correlated with feelings of love and tranquility, making it an especially positive card when shown in a spread relating to romance. If you are in a relationship, this card suggests a blissful communion between you and your partner. Now is the perfect time to make big gestures and take leaps of commitment. You have a sincere and loving relationship, things can only get better! 

If you’re single, this card still maintains its romantic flair. In fact, you may be about to encounter your perfect match. They may be just around the corner, but if you’ve already got a person in mind, then this card is prompting you to make your move. If you have a long lost love you’ve never quite forgotten, why not reconnect? When the Knight of Cups is in play, who knows how bright the flame of reconciliation might burn! 

Knight of Cups As Feelings

The Knight of Cups is deeply associated with intense, loving feelings. If you’re trying to understand how a person feels about you then this certainly points in a romantic direction. In fact, they may even be infatuated with you - look at the depiction on this card, the dreamy, sparkling surrounding. Someone is literally seeing stars when they think of you! However, this card also suggests they may be pensive or lost in their feelings - if you feel the same way, they may need you to motivate them into action. Why not confess your own feelings so that they can do the same? 

The Knight of Cups in Health

When the Knight of Cups presents itself in your reading about health, you can expect good news as well as a recommendation to get out there and meet new people in order for you to feel grounded in the world.

The Knight of Cups in Money, Business, Career, and Wealth

When the Knight of Cups appears in your reading for money there is a promotion or a bonus in your future in your work situation. The knight offers positive tidings of progress and forward motion in work situations, as well as the possibility to get out on your own and start a new venture if that is what you are looking to do at this time.

Knight of Cups As Action/Advice

The knight of Cups is a loving and creative card when it appears in reading regarding advice it points to the power of your own imagination.  Notice how on my card the Knight on this card is not on her horse, hence she is not rushing her personal journey, instead, she is using her creativity to find beauty within the present moment. The golden chalice in front of her symbolizes prosperity and opportunity, the rewards of her love and artistry. If you focus on your own compassion and innovative nature, you will be able to overcome obstacles and experience happiness in the now. 

It is a card about consistency, you shouldn’t make harsh or sudden decisions, instead set your intentions and be deliberate. If you are currently experiencing challenges or problems in your life, the Knight of Cups encourages you to look within yourself. 

Knight of Cups Yes Or No

Seeing the Knight of Cups when seeking a "Yes" or "No" answer is usually a signal in the affirmative. The Knight of Cups is a very positive card, and especially in matters or love or romance, it should be taken as a big yes. Occasionally, the Knight of Cups may be perceived as a neutral response - this is due to its dreamy, indeterminate nature. Either way, the Knight of Cups should never be taken as a hard "No." Use the context of your question and reading to understand the Knight of Cups presence.

Knight of Cups Past

The Knight of Cups when seen in your past position indicates a good time in your personal history. It may have been a moment of particular serenity or satisfaction, it could also refer to a time you were highly creative and working on a project you found fulfilling. It often also highlights a significant person from your past, particularly a past romantic relationship. Like the eclipsed sun shown on this card, it may have been a powerfully rare and beautiful experience. If you never found resolution in the end of that  relationship, this person may still come back into your life. This card tells you to keep an open heart and extract power from the beautiful moments in your past.

Knight of Cups Present 

When you draw the Knight of Cups in your present position you should prepare to welcome a new person or experience into your life. Something new is coming, it may be unexpected, but it will be enriching. It is up to you to actually seize this new opportunity, be proactive and seek rewarding experiences. On this card the knight is content and blissful, but note that this is a position of her own creation because she is the one providing the soft music which fills the air. You too have the power to enable your own fulfillment, unleash the power of your creative mind and you are sure to feel the benefits. 

Knight of Cups Future and Outcome

This cards alignment with ambition and success is most powerful when seen in the future position. If you have a passion you’ve been thinking about pursuing, then now is the time to do it - this card indicates you will reap the rewards in the future. Draw energy from your passion and inner-flame, a love for your craft will get you much further than strategy and planning alone. Plant your seeds now, and in the future you will see that your hard work has blossomed into something more. 

Knight of Cups As Friendship

Seeing this card in relation to friendship indicates the blossoming of new friendships and the strengthening of existing ones. Like the horse who is a companion to the knight, you will find that your most loyal friends will always stick by your side. Now is the time to reach out to those closest to you and let them know your appreciation for their presence in your life. The Knight of Cups is a loving and affectionate card, so try and move your friendships past small talk or the musings of the every day, instead, open your souls to each other. Your greater honesty will be rewarded with a strong, long-lasting friendship. 

The Knight Of Cups in the Reversed Position

Reversed Knight of Cups in a reading

The Knight of Cups in the reversed position is telling you that it is important to look before you leap, for the main reason of understanding all that is out there. There are half-truths in every conversation, and if you are looking for a way out you are going to find it regardless. Therefore you need to be honest with yourself and with your partner (both in business and in romance) and express what it is that you want and what you do not want. Look before you leap - get the whole picture - half-truths can promote difficulties in any relationship. Feeling only what is pleasurable and striving to perpetuate that experience is a shallow way to live that will not appease you in the long term. Consider what you are making your reality. If you are detached from your intuition you will not be happy until you reconnect.

Knight of Cups Reversed - Love and Romance

When this card appears reversed in a love and romance reading you must prepare to face some difficult truths. Upright, the Knight of Cups signifies love, harmony and imagination - reversed, these meanings are inverted. It may signify the end of a happy chapter within a relationship, or point to the immoral actions of your partner which may later cause you pain. 

Alternatively, it could suggest that you are the one who has turned your back on the relationship; the Knight of Cups reversed is often associated with toxicity. Have you become addicted or obsessed with something unhealthy outside your relationship? It could be anything from alcohol or food to a dangerous friend or a bad habit. It is a sign you should assess your partners decisions and your own, whoever is veering off course will need to right themselves quickly and with dedication. If you are single, this reversed card is still, unfortunately, a bad sign. Look out for potential lovers who may take advantage of your good nature and ensure your feelings are reciprocated before falling head over heels. 

Knight of Cups reversed - Family and Home

The Knight of Cups is not necessarily a domestic card, but it is certainly centered around love and harmony - that’s why when it is reversed in a family and home reading it can highlight turbulence within the familial home. This tension is likely to result in brooding resentment and unspoken quarrels. 

Communication is the best answer to resolving your current situation - speaking openly and honestly with your family may be difficult, but it will ultimately lighten the resentments which are currently burdening your hearts and impeding your relationships. Don’t let either shame or pride stop you, or any other family member, from saying what needs to be said. 

Knight of Cups Reversed - Work and Finances

The Knight of Cups reversed in a work and finance reading is an indication of missed opportunity or career dissatisfaction. While the knight plays her violin peacefully in the upright version of this card when reversed that music strains off key, no longer harmonious. 

You too have somehow lost your way; perhaps you have stopped following your true passion, or allowed fear to stop you from seeking golden opportunities. It can also suggest you are currently experiencing a toxic work environment and not being paid fair compensation for your hard work. This reversed card advises you to chase your ambitions, and with immediacy. If you are in a job which is leaving you creatively or financially stunted, now is the time to move on. If you fail to do so you may feel trapped in a cycle of dissatisfaction and resentment. 

Knight of Cups Reversed - Health and Wellness

When the Knight of Cups is reversed in a health and wellness spread it usually points to someone who is on the brink of illness. It may be due to a weakened immune system from overworking, and in particular, cases may highlight a substance abuse problem. It can mean your body has lost its natural balance. To restore it you should look at nourishing yourself inside and out. Give yourself time to rest, eat well, and do gentle exercise if you are able. Remember that your physical and spiritual self is intrinsically connected, you must look after your health in all areas of your life. 

Knight of Cups Reversed - Personal Spirituality

Upright, the Knight of Cups is a card full of intuition and openness, this is in addition to its link to exceptional talent. This does not mean that when it appears reversed in a spiritual reading you are not intuitive or talented, conversely, it may suggest that you have these abilities but they are blocked somehow. 

You are letting key spiritual experiences slip you by. You may even have become overly obsessed with anticipating the future, whether through psychic readings or endless thinking. To resolve this obsession you should spend more time living in the moment and connect with the spirituality and power of the present.
