![]() The Eight of Cups can also refer to negative mental states and increased depression or psychiatric breaks. Do what you can to get in a better place mentally about your health so that you can be in a better place for healing physically. If you are feeling that you don’t trust those around you, get a second opinion. Take time to focus on the positive in your life and the reasons that you want to be healthy. Work on finding out all you can about what is going on with you as education is the best defense. Often with this card there will be a sense of dwelling on the negative which is unhealthy in itself. That doesn’t mean to stop following doctor’s orders, but rather… you need to be more compliant and find the desire to get better. It is important right now to break routines and buck the system. There can be a sense of increased worry or anxiety over health which will continue to exacerbate the problem. Not always but usually, the Eight of Cups will come up when there is a known health issue that is especially trying such as a cold that has turned into pneumonia, mental illnesses taking a turn for the worse, or any other health that continues to wane. The Eight of Cups in health means it is now is a time to focus on your healing. You appear to still be moving and healing from a past relationship and you have a bit more work before you are in the right place to start something new. In the case that you are looking for love the card refers to a place for you now that is not one that is truly ready to be in a relationship. There are cases when the relationship can be salvaged but it usually indicates a need to start from scratch or that there will be a break up and then time will pass before any hope can be had for the future. What has happened in the relationship is something that usually won’t be bounced back from. The stagnation of the card shows that there is no real way to rekindle the fire of the relationship or that the well is poisoned. That doesn’t mean that nothing can be saved, but typically it will reflect a very bad place. In fact, it’s a pretty negative card for a relationship reading of any kind being that it shows a lack of positive energy in your current relationship if you are with someone. In this case, unlike many other cup cards, it isn’t all good. Since the Eight of Cups is in the cups suit, it is often referring to relationships. That can be a lot and later when you look back on this time you will know that you did all that you could. ![]() Little help is that now while you are still feeling the effects emotionally but with the card coming up now it also appears that you are doing what is best for yourself (or that you will). The path you are heading from, even though it did not end well – you will gain knowledge from this strife and grief. With the Eight of Cups, there is a spiritual sense to the card and the search you could be heading on is one of wisdom, but not wisdom alone. It is sort of like the beginning of the Hermit’s journey where he heads to solitude to seek out wisdom and understanding. The Eight of Cups vibrates the same goals and lessons of the Hermit card. Our lives are not stagnant things and while the energy around you may be turning sour, it is up to you to save yourself from that around which is unhealthy or holding you back. In the end you cannot change the past and you must accept what is in the present. It is obvious when this card comes up that you have tried your best and you have taken the steps to make the right choices for you. This is something that you need not fight as really, where else are you going to go? Now is the time to seek the higher road for your own health and sanity. This card represents less of holding on to the past as it is a fear of moving forward. There is darkness to the card that in turn will usually represent aspects of your life right now. The card usually comes up during a time of loss and often this is revolving around a relationship of some kind. The issue in your life is not an easy one at this time. It is interesting to note that while the blue representing spirituality or emotional issues is still present, the colors are darker. Often, especially because this is a cups card, it is exceptionally difficult to go through this card because at one time the pools that were around you were wondrous, creative, and positive energies that have now died down. This is not healthy emotions in your life and you need to do what is best for you. The sand around you right now is stagnant like that which the person in the card walks through. The card symbolism represents that you are moving on by your own accord. On the Rider Waite deck, a man walks through stagnated water and is leaving the cups behind him. The Eight of Cups can be a very hard card to have in a reading.įrom the looks of the card itself, you can get the feeling of loss.
