Two of cups
Upright Meaning
This card has two people and two cups on it. Older decks have a man and a woman, but many modern (newer) decks have two women, actually undines, depicted on this card, as the Water element is of female modality. There’s also an angel in the form of a lion and he is blessing the union of the two cups (and people) depicted on the card.
The landscape is filed with fertile and pastel colors that bring forth a positive sensation and a promise of a better future that is to come. In the distance we also see a house with a red roof hidden in the green trees, this signifies a safe and cozy atmosphere for the two people at the center of the card.
