He is choosing to stay rational and follow his mind, not his feelings. Maybe that he is feeling certain things he is not giving in to.

So really that card would not really say to me what he was feeling per se, just that he was in control of things feelings and they were not controlling him. They are about working things out inside of you, getting in control of what is happening and not letting it control you, coming to terms with where you are and acceptiing it.Cups are about our feelings of course for me. And if this was a card you pulled that was part of a larger spread, I would look to the cards directly surrounding it to see if it should be read more negatively or positively.įor me, and opinions vary on exactly what cards mean, the Kings are about inner mastery. My personal opinion is that it's more difficult to read cards if you only pull one for a question (if that's what you did), and I would recommend pulling at least 2 to see how the cards are influencing one another. The King of Cups alone could be saying that he's only interested in satisfying his own emotional needs, which I alluded to above- he could be manipulating you to gain his own pleasure and emotional satisfaction from being able to successfully do that. LOL If you ask a question like this, where the root of it has to do with an intimate relationship among 2 or more people, you'd be better off hoping to see a card that shows more than one person happy in it, like the 2 of Cups, for instance. court cards are usually drawn to appear by themselves in the cards of most decks) - which could be bad when you are asking about relationships. And if it is the only card you pulled, it shows a man in singular form (i.e. He could have emotional/intimacy issues, be possessive and jealous, emotionally manipulative, etc. If he's badly aspected in the spread by another card, then yes, I'd be careful of him. It might be best to distance yourself from those you rely too much on to start cultivating your own independence.Is this the only card you pulled for the question? All cards have a wide negative to positive range. If this person is you, try to develop yourself rather than depending on others to help you with everything. Be careful of co-dependency in this situation. This person will turn to delusions, alcohol, and other kinds of abuse to deal with their internal turmoil. The reversed King of Cups can also represent how someone who once had a good head on their shoulders can fall to ruin when emotions begin controlling them.

This situation is causing you to become emotionally wounded, and you’re becoming too weak to fight off the coercion. Perhaps, they have even blackmailed you into doing something that you would have done on your own. You will find yourself entwined in their vindictive deeds. This individual is toxic, manipulative, controlling, and devious about it. This is more or less the reversed King of Cups. When an empathetic, controlled individual gets flipped upside down, they become something of a sociopath. Please do not turn away from this person, because you will need their aid very soon. Moreover, they will listen to your story when they must and respond in turn. They will be diplomatic yet politically correct, empathetic yet stern. This individual will be slightly paternalistic yet sympathetic. When the King of Cups is not you, a masculine person, usually older than you, will appear in your life. To do this, you have to learn where strong feelings originate from. Never stop asking yourself how you can develop a stronger sense of awareness. As you deal with the obstacles life throws at you, a deep maturity gives you impressive navigation abilities. You’re down to earth yet open to imaginative solutions to problems. Should you be channeling the energy of the King of Cups, you’re an emotionally balanced individual with a firm grounding. Thus, this individual can be considered a champion of understanding. Instead, the King understands that wonderful things can be achieved with the perfect balance of heart and head. It’s not an unhealthy repression of emotions. That said, unlike the previous court cards, the King of Cups is restrained. Yes, the King of Cups does have ties with emotion, creativity, and the unconscious.
