Card 1
Ace of Cups
Description
A hand from a cloud holds an overflowing cup. Five streams pour from the brim. A dove descends. The Ace of Cups is the heart opening before you know what to do with it. Feeling, before it has a name.

Upright Meanings
Something opens in you. New feelings, new connection, a creative pull you didn't ask for. The Ace of Cups says feel it before you analyze it. Compassion runs both directions now. Toward someone else, toward yourself. Take the cup. It's offered, not earned.
Reversed Meanings
Two reads. Either the feelings are dammed up and you're refusing to let them out, or the love you're looking for needs to land on yourself first. Repressed isn't gone. What you won't say still moves under the surface.
Numerology
1 (The Origin: the starting point, the seed, opportunity)
