This card can push us into career ventures that make us feel lonely when we would truly desire to be a part of a team, or close the doors we thought were open right in front of our face so we can see the actual value of living in the moment and acting on impulse. Five of Cups can be supportive of career moves that are rigid, unemotional and too strict for one's heart, and show our lack of motivation or interest in the job that needs to get done. Opportunities don’t exactly come knocking with cups empty and our path unclear. Although it leaves little room for hopeful encounters and joyous energies, this card reminds us that we must live in the moment and take steps that are necessary for our own happiness, even if this means giving up on important emotional contacts with other people. Not only does it require solitude, but it also shows that what was done left consequences that must be accepted just as they are, pointing out to the importance of reality and personal boundaries of both people involved. Romance isn’t exactly promising with the Five of Cups in its way, for this card represents guilt, separation and wrongfully determined responsibilities between two people. To overcome obstacles and reminders it sends our way, we need to find forgiveness and love for our inner child in order to heal. This card requires us to grow up in a way, see that our only true connection is much wider and more profound than that with any one specific person, and its impact is never easy. The loss of contact with other people is expected here, for the flow of inner feelings needs to be regenerated so we can heal instead of relying on any outer figures or emotional exchanges for personal growth.
It is an emotional phase that comes after great disappointments, when we are faced with the responsibility we have towards our heart to listen to it instead of listening to anyone else. Five of Cups is, in a way, a depressive card, carrying negative emotions, separation, lack of forgiveness, guilt and judgment, as well as all those dark feelings that throw us into the hole of self-questioning or self-resentment.
