Three Cards
The three card tarot spread is one of the oldest methods. You can get to the heart of your question with a simple three-card Tarot reading. In this spread, there are three different positions which can be changed by to your preference, Past – Present – Future (or Situation – Action – Outcome, Situation – Obstacle – Advice and etc.).
The meaning of the card you choose varies according to it’s position.
This opening provides a GENERAL perspective to the period you are in. Or you can evaluate the comments in the frame of your question.
Seven of Cups
Upright
Opportunities, choices, wishful thinking, illusion
The Seven of Cups card represents new possibilities, options, and at times, an illusion. When the Seven of Cups show up in a Tarot reading, you have many choices but be careful! You are prone to confusion and unrealistic goals. An opportunity with promises of more abundance may seem appealing, but as you look deeper, you may realize it is more complicated. Evaluate your opportunities and dig underneath the surface to explore what’s included with each option.
Usually, the Seven of Cups can be a hint of enthusiastic thinking and dreaming, rather than taking action to make it happen. However, if you spend most of your time dreaming but not acting, then it’s time to decide just one thing and make it happen.
The Seven of Cups may be a symbol of that you neglect to see any of those new possibilities through to the end. When you are regularly in the idea stage, you miss the chance to bring your designs to realization. Again, now is a time to concentrate on the one thing that will move you closer to your goal.
This card is calling you to move out of the dreaming phase and choose. Each option will have its pros and cons, so make sure that your choice is in alignment with your purpose – even if you feel slightly paralyzed by the opportunities accessible to you.
Reversed
Alignment, personal values, overwhelmed by choices
The reversed Seven of Cups often shows up when you encounter different choices and, instead of choosing the opportunity that may please others, you are relying on your inner guidance to tell you the best approach. You may have your own rules to help you make choices in association with your inner being.
If you find yourself with multiple choices, teach yourself first and think about what you want for a longer time. All these bright new things in front of you have a specific ‘magic’ control over you right now, and you’re losing your focus if you chase after false dreams.
The reversed Seven of Cups can suggest you are confused by choice and cannot move ahead. Reduce your alternatives and focus on what is essential to you. You don’t need to keep seeking a significant idea; you have what you need. Make your selection and move ahead with it.
Seven of Pentacles
Upright
Long-term view, sustainable results, perseverance, investment
The Seven of Pentacles hints that you recognize the importance of putting in time and effort now for longer-term goals and have a great desire to spend in sustainable outcomes. You are not seeking fast gains. You also want to be certain you are setting your concentration on the correct areas rather than misusing time and energy.
When this card shows up in a Tarot reading, see it as an encouragement to step back from the daily tasks and look at the big picture. Rejoice what you have built so far. And also check whether you are on the right path.
Furthermore, if you are planning your next steps in life, the Seven of Pentacles urges you to take a careful look and evaluate where you can best spend your resources for the best outcome.
If you have been working carefully or putting the additional energy into something important, the project is close to its finish line. You are destined to see economic or other physical awards for all of your strong work.
However, the Seven of Pentacles can also symbolize disappointment with late results. Be patient and recognize the growth you have made so far.
Reversed
Lack of long-term vision, limited success or reward
The reversed Seven of Pentacles hints your works may be wasted at this time and you are doubting whether you are spending in the right fields. You may invest some fundamental capital on things that will not be profitable. Consider where you are spending your resources and make sure you are happy with your current process and earning a profit from those expenses.
Furthermore, the reversed Seven of Pentacles implies that even though you may proceed to spend a lot of energy into a particular situation, you may not get the pays you are searching for. This card requests you to prioritize your actions correctly.
The reversed Seven of Pentacles can note that you know when to quit spending on something when you see little profit. You are skilled at recognizing when a situation is no longer giving you any power and know when to quit in and seek something else.
In a love reading, the reversed Seven of Pentacles shows you have been trying very carefully for your love relationship and spending so much time and energy, however, now you worry that you will miss all of it. You may also feel disappointed that the connection is not growing as fast as you had expected, particularly when you invest in so much effort. However, sometimes you should open your heart and pour your soul into the love that has no guarantees.
Ten of Cups
Upright
Divine love, blissful relationships, harmony, alignment
The Ten of Cups represents emotional satisfaction and happiness, especially in your relationships and family. You have created plenty of love and happiness in your life. You share a powerful connection with your loved ones. You support one another, and together, you encourage each other to reach your greatest potential.
The Ten of Cups card is considered the ‘happy family’ card, implying that your family connections are peaceful and loving. This card may show up when you are spending more time with family, perhaps on a holiday or celebration, where you can rest and enjoy together.
In a love reading the Ten of Cups is a positive card and may symbolize either a new relationship or a commitment. You share an eternal love and you are soul mates destined to be together.
When the Ten of Cups shows up in a Tarot reading, you have a feeling of wholeness, fulfillment in your connections with others. You are experiencing a pleasant state of peace, harmony, and love where your dreams came true. Take a moment to enjoy everything you succeeded. You created a life of happiness by following your heart and trusting yourself.
The Ten of Cups inspires you to follow your heart to guide you to the possibilities aligned with your Highest Good. When something feels wonderful, do more of it; and when something doesn’t feel fit, do less of it. Allow your inner guidance to guide the way. Explore opportunities that fulfill you and align with your preferences instead of tracking the path that others require you to take.
Reversed
Disconnection, misaligned values, struggling relationships
When the reversed Ten of Cups card arrives in a Tarot reading, you are asking higher harmony in your connections. You had hoped for a beautiful, peaceful relationship, but in reality, you feel detached and disengaged from your loved person. It may feel as if something is missing, and you’re striving to talk sincerely, empathize with one another. Each time you try to connect, something goes opposite, and you end up with even more disconnected. You may have nonsensical expectations of the connection: that everything will be excellent and cheerful every minute you are together. If this resonates, then change your expectations and realize that every connection has its ups and downs. Or, you may no longer be suitable for each other, in which case you may think to leave.
The Ten of Cups invites you to seek out common spot with your loved ones and restore the relationship from there. See the other person as a being deserving your love; and fairly, see yourself as a being worthy of theirs. Love and be loved. Open the channels of contact and be ready to hold a place for one another so you can reconnect on a more profound level. Be kind, empathetic, and attentive, and endeavor harmony.
The reversed Ten of Cups can also appear when you are envisioning what a love connection indicates for you. Rather than creating connections with other people, you are concentrating your awareness inward so you can get certainty around what you want from a connection. You may look at your current relationships and review how these relationships arrange with your passions. Let go of any that no longer give you happiness, and welcome in new connections in adjustment with your Highest Good.
The reversed Ten of Cups can show an unbalance of personal preferences. You are not living by your values, nor are you being authentic to yourself. Bring your center back to what really makes you happy even if it varies from what others expect.
Finally, the reversed Ten of Cups may imply that you are ignoring your family while you proceed more material purposes such as improving your career or earning more money.
