V Five of Cups

The Five of Cups means that there may be some disappointment, but it is not something that will change your life profoundly. It can even bring sadness, but it indicates that it can be overcome. Maybe it could be some situation of abandonment, disappointment or you could be missing something or someone.

It could also be that you still have not received that long-awaited thing or you have made a wrong decision. Whatever the reason for the possible frustration, the best you can do is work through whatever hurt is holding you back. Only by regaining your self-love will you be able to overcome any possible problem or pain.

A little more about Five of Cups...

The Five of Cups symbolizes hardship, loss, and the challenge of dealing with it. It is a relatively negative card, but it brings with it the alert for you to change your attitudes and thoughts in relation to the moment or issue.

In the card, we see two glasses standing and three overturned, which conveys a feeling of loss and is a reminder that nothing lasts forever. But the pain and problems do not last either. Take the opportunity to focus on the two you still have, because you can miss good opportunities or not take care of what matters in your life. In the card, we still see a bridge over a river, which leads to a castle. That is, it suggests that you can still overcome your difficulties and achieve security and success at the moment.
