Meaning
In this Seven of Cups, we observe a water nymph making a solemn offering to a masculine sea statue, possibly representing Neptune, the god of the sea. The nymph’s devotion and dedication to the act are evident, as she appears fully immersed in the moment. However, there is a sense of detachment from reality, as it remains unclear whether the sculpture is a tangible presence or a product of her imagination. This card symbolizes the power of illusions, dreams, and fantasies. It serves as a reminder to exercise discernment and clarity when faced with numerous choices and possibilities. While it encourages exploration and imagination, it also urges caution against becoming lost in unrealistic aspirations or being led astray by deceptive appearances. The Seven of Cups invites us to align our desires with reality and make conscious, grounded decisions that serve our highest good.
