Eight of Cups
Eight of Cups signals the need to move on and let go of a situation that no longer serves you. Upright, it points to dissatisfaction, an overdue change, and the start of a journey or realization. Reversed, it warns that things may be headed in an undesirable direction, leaving you ill at ease, caught between difficult choices, or clinging in denial. The card emphasizes honest appraisal and the possibility of leaving what is hopeless while acknowledging the discomfort of transitional periods.

Visual Description
A cloaked figure in a green hooded garment strides along a shoreline, holding a simple wooden staff and looking toward the right. Eight cups, rendered in black-and-white polka-dot patterns and varying heights, stand clustered on the sand in the foreground. A muted gray-blue sea and sky form the background, and the figure's skirt and cloak are caught as if by a breeze.
