Seven of Cups
Upright Meaning
Fantasy, illusion, and many choices. Dazzling options appear before you, but not all are real; discernment is required.
Reversed Meaning
Clarity of purpose, alignment, and making a choice. The fog of fantasy clears and you commit to a realistic path.
Card Imagery
A silhouetted figure gazes at seven cups floating in clouds, each containing a different vision: a castle, jewels, a laurel wreath, a dragon, treasure, a glowing figure, and a snake.
