Five of cups was a big journey for me, from wallowing in a soup of sadness all the time to now, after years of introspection, trying and doing my best to focus on more positive thoughts throughout every day. It's such a hard journey, and sometimes you do just have to be sad! I like your interpretation, it comes with no guilt ❤
Try changing your focus. This always pops up for me when I'm seeing the bad in everything..make a list of 20 things your grateful for and then write down 3 possitive things that happen each day for 21 days. Hope this helps 🙏🤗 I actually just got this card today. Time to work on myself again. Trying to be positive in a negative world is exhausting lol
I love your calming voice and your wisdom resonates deep in my soul. I’m glad I found your channel 🤍 I asked my deck about what I should do regarding the stress with my 9-5 and I pulled this reversed.... time to move on and let go.
Your videos and explanations have helped me so much already, I just starting doing Tarot a few weeks ago and I already see the alterations in my life for the better. Thank you a million times.
By rule of thumb (depending on the other cards in a spread) I find that the more onerous minor arcana upright (3 swords, 5 cups, 5 pentacles etc.) are nullified or positive when reversed, and vice-versa - (10 cups, 6 wands, 10 pentacles etc.) are bad news upside down. That's how I always do it, as well as clarifying any court card with an additional card as a pointer.
@@ContemporaryTarot You are spot on, here! I always tell my clients not to fear all reversals because some of them can be good! Funny side note: I’ve pulled a single card for myself daily for the past 2 years, and the only two cards I have never pulled are the 6 of Wands and the 10 of Pentacles, lol!
I LOVE your channel. Thank you so much for all of these helpful meanings! I am curious, in a single card reading, I asked "is the man who left me seeing anyone?" And this came up. How would I interpret this?
Thank you! Per: Getting the 5 of Cups regarding "is the man who left me seeing anyone?"...I would say my interpretation would be a big old NO, he's certainly NOT! : )
Contemporary Tarot Contemporary Tarot Excellent, thank you for the reply! I recently got into tarot and find it so fascinating. Your videos are perfect for understanding the explanations, thanks again!
I have recently got this card knowing my partner was trying to see someone else last year as well as being quite cruel me or not helping me with our children incredibly self absorbed
I asked what would be the best career for me to take and this card came by? Does this mean i would deal well in a career that deals with grief ? Like a counselor or therapist?
Disappointment, grief, crying over spilled milk . Recognition of losing something of significance and understand u will never get it back. Crying over spilled milk, inability to appreciate what remains. Feel the feels. Look at what has been lost and accept it. That there is no getting it back. Eventually u will be able to move on. Take the time to just be sad.
Carlos: I don’t know your particular situation but have some general thoughts to consider in relation to the Five of Cups. First, first, FIRST…if stuck in sadness, grief, loss, I advise therapy if you are able to access it. This isn’t just a random, boilerplate response. If one is dealing with long term sadness, grief, or loss, a good professional therapeutic relationship can be a life reclaiming process. I am a huge fan of the therapeutic process. Now, questions. Digging into the card, look at the image, there are three spilled cups but behind the person in grief are two upright, intact cups. These are questions and thoughts for you to explore. I’m not asking but merely prompting with thoughts to explore. Do you keep getting this card in your tarot practice or is this what you experience in your life, the quality you perceive as you move through your days? What plenty are you not seeing? Community is nearby. Why are you alone? Are you choosing to remain alone or is another community needed? Perhaps design a reading to give you insight into action to take. This is why I am such a fan of the “Best Course of Action” position. Perhaps lay the Five of Cups upright at the top of your reading and then proceed with a spread addressing its presence in your life. Possible positions: What is my greatest strength at this time? What is my biggest challenge? What do I need to see? Why do I truly feel stuck in this? (Demand honesty from yourself) Be gentle with yourself. This card illuminates loss occurring but good remaining in your life. All my good thoughts to you.
I did a reading on trustedtarot.com. Don't know how accurate it is, but I got this card in the future position. I've honestly been fearing the loss of a loved one, so now I'm completely terrified. :(
Oh boy. This is why i dislike "future/outcome" positions! No one can know the future, only trends or possibilities. I would focus on the aspects of working through anticipatory grief, a step one needs to work through when someone in our lives is experiencing potential end-of-life struggles OR is just going through a difficult time and you have understandable empathy. Please note the upright cups behind the figure and the intact home in the background. Feel the feels but also know all is not lost.
Do you mean that if we don't feel the feels (acknowledge and experience the emotions that spontaneously arise in us), they will eventually fade? I think you are asking something here but I am not clear what.
(Reversed) “It’s time to find what feeds your soul and to move forward.” ❤ Thank you for your wisdom, Madeline. You’re one of my great teachers.

Terrific!
@@ContemporaryTarot Are you going to do a piece about the old question: Is it bad luck to do your own tarot card readings? That would be a real plus.
When I start filming again, I will certainly tackle this (short answer: No! Not bad luck at all!!)

WaterBaluga well wishes to you 💜 I am interested to know how the 5 of cups turned out in the end. I am having similar feelings / experiences
why feel the feels? what the psychological and/ or physiological mechanism for needing to feel the feels in order to...?
My verbal shorthand, I think!
Do you mean that if we don't feel the feels (acknowledge and experience the emotions that spontaneously arise in us), they will eventually fade? I think you are asking something here but I am not clear what.
❤️
Hi Madeline I just want to say I fucking love you!
Why thank you, Rob!
I love you!
