When upright, the Five of Cups suggests that the user is embroiled in a situation that has gone over their head. Things haven’t gone as you expected them to, and you’re filled with disappointment. The situation may have left you feeling bereft or introduced an unwelcome change, either through your job, your relationship, or some significant domain of your life. You’re more focused on the event and the change that it brought than you are with figuring out a way to move on and heal. It’s easy to fall into the trap of rumination, but those thoughts are holding you back. You’ll need to forgive yourself and look at the bigger picture. Your hurt and pain are valid, but remember that there are opportunities all around you. Life goes on, and it’s time for you to do so as well. Look forward to a brighter future and step forward towards the happiness you deserve.
