Reversed

The reversed Knight of Cups means creative inspiration; however, you are not ready for action. Instead of thinking about a plan, you dream about what will happen after the goal is reached. Dreams are pleasant, but use them as motivation and not the main subject for reflection. Spend time thinking about the future for inspiration, but do not forget about actions.

The card in a reversed position may also mean that the goals are too unreal. Make sure your ideas are down-to-earth and possible to happen. Make calculations of resources and your abilities. So you can see the approximate dimensions of the work required. Build a plan based on the available information.

Sometimes, the reversed Knight of Cups means jealousy of people who have achieved more. You are disappointed because of the limitations. Anger and frustration over the inability to dream are overwhelming.

Speaking of the Knight of Cups reversed as a man, this is a very romantic guy. However, his approach to life is exaggerated and unrealistic. The card foreshadows a period of disillusionment and disappointments because everything turns out to be different from what he expected. What does this mean for you? For example, to get away from the noise of the office, you decide to work at home. But, instead of spiritual satisfaction, you discover that you need social contact with people. This is the exact opposite of what you wanted.
