The Seven Of Cups

The Seven of Cups portrays a man who faces an extraordinary and shadowy presence of images from the seven cups floating around in the clouds. Here clouds represent ideas, thoughts, dreams. We cannot see the face of the man but his gesture suggests that he is in surprise. The different images from the cups are both positive and negative symbols. Every cup has a single item, a snake which portrays knowledge and wisdom; a covered figure indicating it needs enlightenment; a head indicating acquaintance of a wizard; a tower showing constancy and strength; treasure indicating wealth; a laurel headdress, representing triumph and prominence; and a dragon indicating paranormal forces. Even though the cups look as if they are gifts, it seems like a danger for anyone who comes closer. It implies the sometimes you have many options to choose from. Each may look the right one but there is only one correct.

Upright indication

The Seven of Cups shows that the images in your thoughts are not only something of imagination but are closely related to the real world. You are a dreamer who is seeing the splendor and pleasure as well as hardships and dilemmas of the future. It’s good to dream but you should not get caught up in them to lose track of reality.

Reversed indication

This card is also seen as a wish card. Every cup is packed with wishes such as riches, attractiveness, victory, and comfort. Though every cup is not having a positive outcome. There is a snake which is sign of danger. So this can be a mixed package. This card is referred as temptation also, as there are so many items to choose from. It can be difficult to make the right choice and make a wrong move. One has to keep in mind that temptation gives temporary pleasure and has serious consequences.
