Knight of Cups
romance · charm · idealism
↑Upright Meaning
The Knight of Cups rides forward bearing an emotional offering — a proposal, a creative vision, or a romantic gesture that comes from the heart. This card represents the person who leads with feeling, who follows beauty and meaning above all else. The Knight is the artist, the lover, the dreamer who puts emotion into action.
↓Reversed Meaning
Emotional manipulation or unrealistic promises. The reversed Knight may represent someone whose charm masks insincerity, or your own tendency to let emotions lead you into impractical situations. Beautiful words need to be backed by consistent actions.
