Known also as the Lord of Love, and represented by Venus in Cancer, the Two of Cups represents happy relationships and deep emotional connection. Venus is the Goddess of Love and Cancer represents deep familial connections and kindred spirits.
This card represents union that is uncomplicated and fulfilling. It is a coming home, recognising the twin soul of the other that completes you. There is an emotional openness to you now that invites the perfect soul into your sphere - you attract to you what you are.
A welcome sight when the question relates to romantic relationships, the Two of Cups brings commitment of the heart, an important union and not a fling, and this union is surrounded by kindness, understanding and delight. This is a case of feeling emotional euphoria such as you may have not felt before. It is beholding and recognising the beloved and is a spiritual experience.
This card can also bring reconciliation where there have been misunderstandings in close relationships - the cups depicted in the card are full to overflowing, and this underlines a willingness for forgiveness and understanding leading to ongoing contentment.
Traditionally this card is the Cinderella and Prince Charming moment. Before the glass slipper is lost and all the confusion that comes with the trying on of shoes and jealousies from step sisters and so on, it is the moment when her eyes meet his and they both know that there is no one else in the entirety of the Universe who will do. It is perfect recognition of the missing half of one's heart and it is a priceless moment.
Considering how many people would dearly wish to see this card, especially those who have been searching for their perfect mate forever and a day, this card turns up surprisingly infrequently, and so I am so happy to present it to you today.
And if, by chance, the blossoming of romantic love does not relate to you, then it still predicts an opening of the heart, a meeting of minds, and true and lasting friendship that overcomes barriers and fulfills you on the deepest levels.
A time to keep you heart open - your experiences may surprise you.
