Knight of Cups

The Knight of Cups descends from the canopy, the wings of his helmet arresting his fall. He speaks of his search for some heavenly object; listening to him talk, you are uncertain if this object exists in the reality you share, or merely as a vision in the giant eye that adorns his breastplate.

You find yourself curious about this thing the Knight of Cups seeks; thirsty for knowledge, you are receptive to new sources of enlightenment, although the knowledge required to evaluate the knowledge they bring may elude you.

Upright

• Idealism
• Creativity
• Spiritual interests

New love is the scent of verbena on a warm summer breeze. You are free to bathe in it, unfamiliar as yet with the biting insects and spiteful thorns with which it shares the hedgerow. Enjoy this time, for reality cannot be kept at bay indefinitely.

Perhaps the Knight of Cups joins you on your journey; while he may have the appearance of a fighter, you find him to be a sensitive soul, bringing with him art, music, and a belief in the good in all things. You find yourself drawn to him, a door inside you newly open to the potential of the holistic and the paranormal.

Inverted

• Lacking motivation
• Laziness
• Unfollowed guidance

Problems buzz about your head, but somehow you cannot bring yourself to bat them away. Despite your abilities, these problems remain with you. Remind yourself that it is better to act, be disappointed, and learn, than to lose yourself in fictions and sleep and never take the action required.

You seek advice from sources both worthy and ill-trusted, and in both cases do not follow it to its conclusion. Resist a growing interest in expanding your viewpoint through illicit means, for it may shroud your relationships in unreality.
