Ace of Cups
Key words: connection, compassion, new feelings
The aces always represent new beginnings, and with the Ace of cups, this new beginning involves the heart. Feelings are first and foremost as the Ace of cups indicates a connection. You may forge a new connection with another person, your intuition, or even a new and exciting feeling in regards to finding something that makes your heart sing. This ace advises to act from a place of love and compassion.
If reversed, there is no connection and the heart is closed off. Feelings of disappointment or a strong upset may be present.

Three of Cups
Key words: celebration, crowd, emotional growth/progress, social occasions
It’s Celebration time!! Put on those dancing shoes, cause its time to PAR-TAY! You may find you are getting together with friends or family and having a great time, or a night out on the town. A happy occasion is suggested, so you may have something special to celebrate such as a promotion, new job, or a personal success. You may also be attending an engagement party or baby shower.
Reversed, Something doesn't go as planned, and so there is no celebration on the horizon. This can also imply an issue with a friend, or even too much partying.

Four of Cups
Key words: Discontent, boredom, "flat",
There seems to be a general sense of boredom, or overall dissatisfaction with an area of your life which is causing you to miss important things that could be right in front of you. This simply could be a case of going back to the same old routine after having fun times or a deeper sense of dissatisfaction with every day life. It’s possible that you may be dissatisfied with progress made on a project which is important to your heart. While day dreaming can be beneficial at times, different doesn’t always mean better. Remember to take stock of what you are grateful for and use this inward focus to see what it is that YOU can change.
When reversed, you actually see the cup being offered. Areas have been considered and you have an idea of action to be taken.

Five of Cups
Key words: Disappointment, grief, sadness, a focus on the negatives
There seems to be a disappointment, sadness, or regret in your life. At this time, you are focused on the upset and are unable to see that there is a way forward. Depending on your circumstances; if this is a minor upset in your life, you may need to just go with the flow and move on. There are opportunities for growth that you just are not seeing right now. That being said, if there has been a major life change causing this, and your sadness stems deeper, know that you do not need to do this alone. There are people around who can assist you.
When reversed, change is taking place and a way forward is becoming more clear

Six of Cups
Key words: past, memories, kindness, simplicity
In general, the 6 of cups implies harmonious, sweet feelings, so if there have recently been any upsets, you may find that those feelings are replaced with happier ones. The past may be on your mind, so you may find yourself reminiscing, about someone or something from the past, or very literally running into someone you used to know, or who reminds you of the past in some way. Simplicity is key right now. Remember the feeling when a child picks a dandelion and it is the best gift ever? That kind of sweet, innocent simplicity or act of kindness may brighten your own day, or that of another.
When reversed, there is a sense of being stuck in the past. A focus must become on the present.

Seven of Cups
Key words: options, imagination, day dreaming, wishful thinking
There may be an area of your life that has some different options on the table making it hard to choose. To prevent becoming emotionally overwhelmed, try to be realistic and look at the situation with logic and practicality- one step at a time. Like wise, you may find that you are doing a lot of day dreaming or wishful thinking in an area of your life. While this can be good in order for to make positive change, fantasy can only get you so far. You will need to look at the situation logically in order to take the practical steps needed to move forth one way or the other.
When the 7 of cups reverses, a choice is made, however, keep in mind that this may allude to options taken off the table!!

Eight of Cups
Key words: Moving on, leaving behind, escape
A choice has been made to move on from a situation or ideal that you had previously needed to look at from all inner perspectives. In some cases, this can be a relief as it is indicated that this situation may have been something worked on for some time. In other cases, the transition may not be easy and will require emotional strength to go find what lies ahead.
Reversed: coming back to give it another try.

Nine of Cups
Key words: wishes, satisfaction, happiness, enjoyment, good times
The nine of cups is the classic wish card and a very positive omen. Something that you have worked towards and hoped for is coming true. You are happy and very satisfied and may be enjoying good times with those close in your life.
When reversed, the 9 of cups can become blocked. There is a need to focus on inner fulfillment. There is an element of dissatisfaction. What are you wishing for instead of taking practical action on? In some instances, the 9 of cups reversed may point to wishing for something that is not good for you in the bigger picture of life or " too much" .

The Cups Court Cards
Cups people are kids at heart, lighthearted, social but may be shy or seem detached, have a smaller “circle” , kind, sincere, compassionate, gentle, imaginative, creative, intuitive. They may seem too sensitive or childish at times, can appear to be in their own world, may seem moody. They are the peacemakers, and generally may try to avoid conflict if possible.
Connected to the water signs of Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces, these people have a strong intuition, connection to their feelings and inner world.
More in depth characteristics of the Cups can be found on this blog post: Understanding the Cups Court Cards
Note: For the Court cards, I did not include reversed meanings here as I feel it can bring in confusion. A helpful hint, is to consider a reversed card to imply more negative aspects of the card, to imply that the upright characteristics may be needed, or that there is a block in some manner to the representation of the card
