Family, Friends & Relationships:

In general the Ten of Cups speaks of a happy family life, (even if you are single,) and to general well being that goes beyond you yourself to include those that you are most concerned about – parents, siblings, children, etc. Being spiritually fulfilled is also part of the picture here. This is a good card to see; regardless of the question.

Card Meanings: Creativity, Family, Homecomings, Happy Ever After, Domestic Bliss, Children, Harmony, Blessings, Happiness, Reunions, Marriage, Long Term Relationships, Fun, Fate, Life, Play, Family Gatherings, Soulmates, Friendship, Destiny, Well-Being, Good Luck, Security, Caring, Abundance, Stability, Happy Families

The Ten of Cups is another of the most uplifting of cards that you can receive. This card points to happiness in general, perhaps in a more mature, grown-up, global kind of way as opposed to the more personal, less global, wish fulfillment promised by the Nine of Cups. Either way it’s a good card.

Reversed Cards: If ever there were a dreamer, it would be the sign of Pieces, and here, with the coaxing influence of Mars, it is understandable that you are only seeing what you wish to see and not what is truly there. Denial does not create a reality worth living, and here with the Ten of Cups retrograde you might be repeating an old self-sabotaging cycle. Do yourself a favor and really check in and see that your dream has not disengaged you from what actually needs to take place in your life to bring about happiness and joy. Only then will you be able to turn this card around.

Complete Book of Tarot: Tarot readers typically lay out the cards in a predetermined pattern called a spread. Each position in the spread is assigned a particular meaning, and the card falling in that location is interpreted in the context of the meaning attributed to that spot in the layout. For example, in a three-card past-present-future spread, the card in the first position refers to the past, the central card gives information about the present, and the final card indicates future trends.

Complete Book of Tarot: When reversed, the Death card suggests that you may be avoiding necessary change and transition. Clinging to the past is not productive in the long run. Aspects of your life that are stagnant or outworn must be discarded so that new growth can take place. Are you creating conditions inimical to the sprouting of new seeds in your life? If so, now is the time to summon the courage to face the unknown.
