Ace of Cups Tarot Card Meanings

We see a hand coming out of the clouds and resting in its palm is a golden cup or chalice. The cup has a dove above it and is over flowing with water, which cascades down in five fountains into calm waters with lilies and flowers on its surface.

The element of water is associated with emotions and as such the cup would seem to be over-flowing with emotions. Around the cup we see drops of water falling, like tears, but tears can also be of joy, not just sadness, and furthermore the stillness and calmness of the water below seems to speak of positive emotions.

Doves are associated with peace and the dove in this image is diving into the cup. It is as if the water in the cup is a promise of the happiness and love to come, represented by depth and vastness of the ocean below.

This cup being handed down from the heavens appears to be a gift, a blessing, a boon and it would appear to suggest the promise of something new in the emotional realms.
