Tarot Contemplation – Knight of Cups (reversed)

Today is a great day for creative play and for spending time with people you love.  You have a lot of love and passion flowing through you, find ways to share it.  It’s not a great day for big decisions however; the dreamy energy surrounding you today could make something seem better than it actually is.  When the Knight of Cups is reversed, the flow of emotions is excessive or blocked.  You may be overly sensitive, letting your emotions get in the way of mental clarity or getting things done.  You may be following your heart from place to place or person to person,without allowing time to develop your interests or relationships.  You or someone you know may be using fantasy or substances to escape reality in a dysfunctional way.  Emotions could be being used as a weapon, such as when someone vows love just to get into another’s bed.  Alternatively, the Knight of Cups may appear reversed when emotions are failing to flow.  You may be hiding your feelings or unable to know your heart’s desire.  This could also be a card indicating creative blocks, such as not being happy with any of the artwork you’ve done lately, or being unable to come up with a good idea for your next work.  In this case, a break may be helpful.
