The Meaning of the Knight of Cups in the Tarot Card System

Knight of Cups

General Meaning

What qualities does a knight possess? Romance, of course — warmth of heart, courage, and determination. If you are doing a reading about a specific person, these qualities belong to that person. They are true to their principles and ideals, always following their dream, and are very sensitive and tactful. In life this person is already an adult, but has not yet reached full maturity. They are very talented and can devote themselves to their career with total enthusiasm. They have their own system of values and their own idea of moral standards. The Knight of Cups can point to a new encounter that will be very fruitful and romantic. Or it will be a friend who brings with them new pleasant sensations, experiences, and surprises. During the meeting this person may make an offer that will be hard to refuse — so do not refuse it. The card can also point to a new acquaintance, an invitation to a party, a holiday with friends, or visiting relatives. Intuition plays a very important role here. Listen to your intuition and it will lead you in the right direction.

Meaning in Situations

You may meet someone you fall passionately in love with, or encounter a person who brings you new emotional experiences. You may receive an offer you cannot refuse. Or a getaway in the company of your best friends awaits you. Most likely you will receive an invitation to an event where a very important acquaintance awaits you. You need to listen to yourself and stop dancing to other people's tune. At this moment you are marked by sensuality, a certain idealism, and gentleness — and right now these are unquestionably your trump cards.

Reversed Meaning of the Card

You may receive an offer that is too tempting to be true. Most likely, someone around you is lying to you. If you need to sign anything, read everything very carefully — especially the fine print — because there is a very high chance that someone wants to cheat you. You must stop being so passive and stop yielding to other people's influence. It would be best to consult someone you truly trust, or an outside observer. Disagreements with the person you love may lie ahead.

Deceitful offers, a shared wrong decision or judgement. Emotional dependence. Sometimes a delayed arrival. A meeting with the reversed Knight of Cups.

Reversed Meaning: Work

Not bad, but empty promises, deception, a refusal to cooperate.

Reversed Meaning: Health

A risk of contracting venereal diseases.

Reversed Meaning: Relationships

A frivolous relationship. He must not be trusted.

Reversed Meaning: Personality Type

Cynical, flattering. He must not be trusted. Knows and senses people very well. Great magnetism — a plus for him, but a minus for others. Inclined toward sexual excess.

Reversed Meaning: Advice and Warning

The advice is either to turn down the offer, or to use your own charm yourself. It warns that you may end up in a situation that is hard to escape.

Reversed Meaning: Yes or No

"No." A dubious offer, a skilled smooth talker.
