KNIGHT OF CUPS MEANINGS
What does Knight of Cups mean?
The Knight of Cups represents romance in motion: the deck's poet and idealist, riding slowly with his cup extended as an offer. Upright, he brings invitations, proposals and grand gestures — feeling translated into action, charm in its sincere register. He follows the heart wherever it points. Reversed, the charm loses its anchor: moodiness, flightiness, promises that outrun follow-through, or an idealist disappointed by reality's pace.
