Upright
The romantic on a white horse. The Knight of Cups follows the heart, bringing charm, idealism, and a beautiful invitation or proposal.
Reversed — a charm that runs hot and cold
Moodiness, unrealistic ideals, or empty charm. Romantic gestures lack substance, or feelings run hot and cold.
Why this card
Cups reads love, feeling, and the ties between people. The Knight is the one in motion — pursuit taken to its extreme; the suit's energy charging forward, for better or worse.
Water is the element of feeling and relationship — the heart, the bond, what runs beneath the surface.
Fire of Water — the driving edge of water.
