Weaknesses Of The Suit Of Cups

Weaknesses of the suit of cups Tarot cards

The Cups Cards Reversed are usually an expression of uncontrolled emotional states. You let yourself be overwhelmed by your feelings and drift away.

Like a castaway in a sea of emotions, you are hardly receptive to logic or reason. In addition, the reversed Suit of Cups cards are an expression of a roller coaster of emotions.

Sometimes you feel as if you could embrace the whole world and a little later, you are deeply saddened.

This imbalance in your mood experience indicates unresolved inner conflicts trying to find their way to the surface. Find the causes of your emotional fluctuations to bring your feelings back into balance.

Another weakness of the Suit of Cups Tarot cards can be a drying up of your creative energy. A mental block prevents the flow of your creative energy so that you constantly have the feeling of running into a wall. The result is often a feeling of apathy. You no longer feel in the flow and only drift through everyday life.

The Cups can also indicate that you are currently resisting the current of everyday life with all your might. Your resistance costs you much more strength in the end than if you simply let yourself fall. The Suit of Cups also stands for drifting off into your own world.

Instead of staying in reality, you move further away from it and seek refuge in your pipe dreams.
