Five of Cups : Card of the Day

Something might upset you.
If you were already happy about something in advance or thought the matter was settled, then today will disappoint you. 

If only some trifle is “broken off”, then take it with humor. 

If you are disappointed in a really serious matter, then 
accept your defeat with honor and do not hide it in front of others. 

The more honest and sincere you behave, the sooner you can find new ground under your feet.

Love
Five of Cups
(Reversed)
Love
Tough breakup, but not final care. 
In the event of a break, there is a lot to lose for both sides.
Emotional sadism, exiting blackmail, multiple exits and returns.

The five of cups is undoubtedly a negative card as it can indicate a relationship that has ended or that has begun the process of breaking up and ending.

However, the card also indicates that not everything is lost, that there is still a part or there are elements to save it.

The important thing is to focus on these things and not stay anchored in what has been lost, the mistakes, in the past events that have led to this crisis.

If the relationship is insurmountable, the five of cups tells you that even if you cannot see it and understand it like that now, this is surely the best for you, only with enough time and with the arrival of new relationships you will be able to see it.

You become very unhappy, there is always a resentment feeling going on inside you. You are always disappointed with the results you are getting from all the aspects of your life. Your loved ones leave you.

But then again instead of moving ahead with your life, you are just choosing to get drowned in wallow of your self-pity. Out of all the things in the world you choose to be stuck with your discouraging and demotivating environment.


Five of Cups : Career

Career
Leaving the business (to someone else).

Gains are equal to losses. 
Leaving work.
An attempt to restore the irreparable. 
Low profits, no development.

The five of the cup indicates that there may be delays in all plans, even some type of loss, be it part of the salary, working hours, a promotion that was going to arrive and it is canceled.

In a very literal sense, it can mean that your work is giving you more losses than gains. It would also be appropriate to consider a job change, starting something else, another more profitable but above all more satisfying activity on your emotional level.

When you are receiving Five Of Cups in your worklife then one of the most important thing that you would have to face is forgiving others as well as yourself. If you have been cheated or some of your close ones have deceived you then it is the right time to forgive them.

Similarly, if you are self-analyzing for where you went wrong then you must stop taking pity on yourself and then start learning from your mistakes. Your wisdom is something that will help you stay positive even in a negative environment. You must be able to reflect all the circumstances from your experience and learn from them.


Five of Cups : Money

The card is not so negative since as we saw, it points more to the emotional than to the financial, however you may be regretting a past where things were better.

You must focus on the now, without pushing too much, as this sometimes produces the opposite effect. Letting it flow, doing the right thing, and having a healthy, optimistic outlook may be the right position.

You are not as badly off as you think in the economic aspect, although you must take care of your money, try to save, not make unnecessary expenses, avoid that “the milk spills” because it is a time when you do not lack but you do not have too much.

You would face loss in your business and all your investments or savings would just die down.

Now is the right time to encourage and motivate yourself by grabbing all the opportunities that come your way. By changing your mindset you would be able to know how to be on the open the relaxing side of your life, how to be relieved from all the stressful points and memories those have grounded you.
