Page of Cups Tarot Card Description

In the popular imagination, tarot cards often describe the physical characteristics of a person. I wouldn’t want to claim this is untrue, but they are just as likely to tell us about someone’s character. Physically, the Page of Cups is said to represent a youngster with brown hair and blue or dark coloured eyes.

Upright Meaning

The Page of Cups brings with it the excitement and purity of emotion associated with first love. This is love in its romantic or idealized form, just like you experience in the heady days of a new romance. Not surprising then, that its appearance can suggest that a new squeeze is coming your way. Nevertheless, you need to be realistic, love can be exhilarating, thrilling, passionate and intense, but it will not always be that way. The time will come when your courtly romance will develop into a stable, supportive but less extreme relationship, and you need to be able to accept this. The Page of Cups reminds us of the sensitivity we feel when we first give our heart to the object of our affections. We all recall how a loved one’s smile can make our day, whereas a frown from the beloved can sear our heart. Thus, we are reminded that we need to be sensitive to the needs of our loved ones. This idea can be taken further, as the Page of Cups asks us to remember the power our approval or disapproval can have on others around us, be they youngsters, business partners, friends or colleagues. So, if you have to explain to someone that their great idea isn’t so great, or that their bum really does look elephantine in that outfit, do so gently. If romance is not on your radar, then this is the ideal time to make use of your heightened sensitivity to do something creative. Alternatively, as you swim in the flow of emotional awareness, you should find your intuition is particularly well honed - don’t be frightened to use this to your advantage.

Reversed Meaning

If folks want drama, they can switch on the television, listen to the radio or watch a film. Alternatively, they can hang around and see what you fuss about next - could it be that you are being melodramatic? It is also possible that one of your relationships may be drawing to a close. This need not be romantic, it could refer to a business relationship, a friendship or even that of teacher and pupil. The chances are that you will not have a major disagreement, but you may have simply outgrown each other and it is time to move on.
