Knight of Cups as feelings

Romantic interest is very much alive: they may be ready to make an offer, a declaration or a grand gesture. Their feelings lead and their head follows.

As feelings, upright

Romantic interest is very much alive: they may be ready to make an offer, a declaration or a grand gesture. Their feelings lead and their head follows. It can be heady and flattering, and it is worth noticing whether their actions keep pace with their words.

As feelings, reversed

Intense one moment and distant the next, their feelings may run hot and cold. They might love the idea of romance more than the steady work of a relationship. Promises can be sincere when made yet hard for them to keep.

What it says about love

Romance proper: an offer, a declaration, a suitor with a cup held out. Someone is leading with their heart. Enjoy the courtship, and check that the knight can also do dishes.

The person behind the feelings

A charming romantic who follows the heart, this person brings beauty, invitation and a sense of possibility. They tend to be artistic, idealistic and generous with feeling. Courtship comes naturally to them, along with poetic words and thoughtful gestures.

Feelings it can stir in you

Upright, Knight of Cups is about romance, an offer and following the heart; reversed, about unrealistic idealism, hot and cold and seduction. If the question is how you feel, read it as a mirror rather than a verdict.
