Reversed Ace of Cups as Feelings

When the Ace of Cups is reversed, it means that this person is feeling sad and alone right now. They may be having a temporary loss of faith. They are unsure where things are going to go from here. This could be stemming from an argument or a breakup. They are feeling vulnerable right now. 

They may also be experiencing emotional blockage. Something is blocking them from being able to give and receive true love. This could be from past baggage and previous bad experiences. It could stem from their childhood. It could just be insecurity, or even a profound lack of self love. We can’t give what we don’t have. Whatever it is, their heart is not open right now. 

For singles and those in new relationships, the Ace of Cups reversed is a sign of feeling sad and vulnerable. This person is experiencing emotional blockage.

They are not ready. They are sad and worried and not present in the now. This is not how you want to start a new relationship.

Your ex has to be open to love in order to give and receive it.
