What is Knight of Cups advising?

An offer made from the heart. Romance, an invitation, a creative proposal.

Follow what moves you. Grace and idealism in action, and the card genuinely means action: the Knight is moving, which distinguishes him from the Page's feeling that has not gone anywhere yet.

As a person he is warm, attentive and demonstrative. What he offers is real at the moment he offers it, and the tradition is careful to put it that way rather than more warmly.

Moodiness, unrealistic promises, somebody in love with being in love.

The last is the most precise. What is being enjoyed is the feeling rather than the person, and the person is interchangeable in a way that becomes apparent later.

Also read for feeling that never becomes action: the intention announced repeatedly and never enacted. Reversed, the horse stops and only the declaration remains.

Upright: romance, invitation, idealism, following the heart, charm

Reversed: moodiness, empty promises, unrealistic, inaction

• Where is my idealism useful, and where is it a way of avoiding specifics?
