Three of Cups
Creation in the feeling life
The card
The Three of Cups is the culmination and fruit of the emotional energy between two beings. Like Le Petit Trianon, it is a reflection of love made manifest in the world. The cups build upon a moment of connection. It represents the interplay of creation with appreciation, protection, nurturing, and all outcomes of partnership.
This card can represent new love or the fierce protectiveness of a mother for her child. It is a tangible, visible, and dramatic force.
