Complete Book of Tarot: When upright, the Three of Cups depicts three friendly individuals in a happy celebration, perhaps of a good harvest. It is a time of happiness, success, favorable issue, and abundance. Why are the maidens rejoicing? Perhaps they have received good news about a project, a promotion, recovering from illness, an engagement, a wedding, or the birth of a child. Their creative juices are flowing. The harvest has been abundant and they know how to have a good time.

Reversed Cards: In numerology, nine is the last number, the end of a cycle and a sign of completion, which seems a little out of whack in the minor arcana, considering we technically have one more card to move through. But when we start looking at the cards, it is easy to see that the nines do represent the completion of or the need to let go of cycles, experiences, people, places, and things. You will also see that the lessons of the nine don’t come easily, and just for an extra dose of fun we are going to flip those lessons and throw them in reverse.

Reversed Cards: Like it or not, there is a bit of drama-queen energy around this card, the whole ‘I’m going to be as emotionally difficult as possible and you’re all just going to have to deal with it’ vibe. It is one thing to need some time to process your current emotional state. It is quite another to use it to be a prima donna and be deliberately difficult. If you have gotten this card in the shadow aspect, there is a good chance you are just going out of your way to piss people off. A word of warning: it will come back and bite you in the butt. Diva it up while you can because no one will want to be around you too long while you’re being this emotionally indulgent.
