So next in my series of evaluating the meaning of tarot cards instead of focusing on Peter Answers, after previously evaluating the Ace of Cups I turn to the Two of Cups.
The Two of cups is all about connection, truce and attraction.
What is interesting about the Two of Cups is that to really understand it, all one needs to do is to peer at the image on the card. It is of a woman and a man gazing lovingly into each others eyes, preparing to share their cups (emotions). This is the very essence of romantic beauty and sexual attraction. There is am amazing amount of energy between them. The Two of Cups shows power and beauty that is forged when two people come together. If you are a lover, then the Two of Cups is the card you want to see in your spread. In fact, the Two of Cups is basically the minor arcana equivalent of the Lovers card.
In addition to the obvious romance, this card carries a deeper meaning as well. Whenever two forces of any kind come together there is the potential for bonding, whether it is two people, two groups, two ideas, whatever. When reading, the Two of Cups informs you to look for connections in your life of any kind, mostly one on one connections. When you see the Two you know you are not supposed to be alone or apart with anything. It’s all about those connections. Have you had a spat with someone? Reach out to them and get back together. Are you struggling between two choices? Figure it out and seek to reconcile them.
One thing to keep in mind is that while the Two of Cups is usually welcome in a reading, it can sound a warning. Remember, there is a lot of energy in Two. All it takes is to stand next to two people in love to know that. Hence the term, “Two is company, three is a crowd.” Ensure that their natural tendancy to pair off does not create discord in your own life.
If you are looking for love, go to a love fortune teller and hope for the Two of Cups!


I used to read the tarot. I haven’t even looked at them in over 20 years. Maybe I should get a reading, there’s a lot going on in my life right now
