Tarot Card Description & Meanings

The Five of Cups shows a man with his head bent in sadness, three of the cup turned over and their contents have spilled out. The man is feeling lost and sad, overwhelmed by his emotions for what he has lost. He cannot see the other two cups that are still upright and have their contents inside still.

This card represents the strength and courage to overcome any difficulties, it is just being able to tap into that strength and find it.

This card signifies going back to what we know best to do the best for ourself.
