Card Story

In the Seven of Cups, a man stands before seven cups filled with various gifts. Some cups  bear desirable gifts such as jewels and a wreath of victory. But others hold gifts that are not  gifts at all; instead, they are curses, such as the snake or dragon. The clouds and the cups  symbolise the man’s wishes and dreams, and the different gifts inside suggest that you need  to be careful what you wish for as not everything is as it seems. Choices need to be made, but  in doing so, you must go beyond illusion and allure, and instead focus on what’s right for you.
