Card 38 • cups

Three of Cups

Brief Description

The Three of Horns celebrates communal joy, gratitude, and shared abundance. It depicts three smiling figures raising drinking horns over a long table laden with meats, fruits, and vegetables, symbolizing harvest, hospitality, and a windfall of good fortune. Distinctive details—the armor, winged helm, braids, furs, and Thor's Hammer tattoos and necklace—suggest strength, protection, and ancestral ties, while four runes arching above them imply blessing or fate. Upright, the card encourages celebration, connection, and grateful reception of good fortune; reversed, it warns of dissatisfaction, withdrawal, failure to connect, or overindulgence.

Visual Description

Three figures stand shoulder to shoulder, smiling and raising drinking horns together above a bounty-laden table. A woman in a winged helmet, a youth between them, and a fur-clad man form a triumphant trio against a cloudy sky. The foreground shows a woven basket of fruit, roasted fowl, fish and platters of food. Above them a curved horn-like emblem displays the numeral 3 and faint rune-like markings glow in the sky.
