Seven of Cups
The Seven of Cups warns against excessive indulgence and deceptive illusions that distract from real issues. A phantom serpent offers tempting desires, but its transparency reveals the inherent deception in its promises. While sensual pleasures may provide temporary escape from harsh realities, prolonged dwelling in fantasies makes us more vulnerable to real problems that won't disappear through mere avoidance.
Keywords
The Deceptive Serpent
A phantom serpent, deceptively vivid against this ominous veil, sways above the central cup, quietly offering everything the heart could desire. But its transparency contradicts the inherent falseness characteristic of this creature's speech. Simply an enticing illusion without any substance, whose purpose is to disarm the discerning mind.
Warning Against Excessive Indulgence
The Seven warns against becoming overly absorbed in something: often a person abuses sensual pleasures not for their own sake, but only to distract from pressing matters. By allowing ourselves to be deceived, we become deaf to our problems.
Escape from Reality
This is a way of shielding ourselves from a harsh, hostile world. However, staying too long in our fantasies makes us more vulnerable to very real problems: they won't go away if we simply ignore them.
Visual Description
A dark, twisted tree stands against a background of green and red swirling patterns. Red, ribbon-like branches or streams curl down and pool into seven circular basins on the ground, each basin holding a small chalice or cup. White outlines of leaves drift across the scene and a stylized question-mark shape hovers above one of the pools. At the bottom of the card the title reads "SEVEN of CHALICES" in hand-drawn lettering.
