Five of Cups

[DAscent]

FIVE OF CUPS

Wrapped in the black cloak of despair, the figure contemplates the three spilled cups as the wine of pleasure sinks into the ground. Two more cups behind him remain to be taken, but he ignores them. In the distance a bridge leads to a small castle. The river is the stream of the subconscious.

Divinatory Meaning:
Disappointment. Sorrow in those things from which pleasure was expected. Disillusionments in love. Marriage broken up. Loss of friendship. Vain regret; loss, but with something left over.

Reversed:
Return of enjoyment. New alliances formed. Return of an old friend or loved one. Hopeful expectations.
