The Two of Cups is the card meaning true love. This Tarot card predicts nothing but positive interactions. When you receive the Two of Cups, you can bet that intimate relationships are on your mind or will be of interest to you in the near future. Your knight in shining armor is heading your way.
It is often said by experienced readers that the Two of Cups is the card of soul mates. Even if you do not believe in such a thing as true love, the Two of Cups still predicts good relationships and understanding between two people. Therefore, if you’re hoping to find love, you should pray for a Two of Cups!
If you feel like the Two of Cups card does not predict soul mates, then it can represent best friends who are about to play a major part in your life. These friends will be a positive influence and want nothing more than to work in unity with you.
Very rarely does the Two of Cups Tarot card represent work. When it appears in work placed capacity, the Two of Cups may predict that you’ll meet the love of your life during work hours.
Finally, although the Two of Cups is not a card that most readers associate with pregnancy, in many cases, I feel that it can be a pregnancy card. In fact, I often interpret the Two of Cups as a card that symbolizes twins!
Two of Cups Love Tarot Meaning
The Two of Cups is pretty straight forward for love Tarot readings - it is one of my Tarot cards that indicate love. If it pops up in the future or outcome position, this can mean that your partnership will go the extra mile and possibly last a very long time.
The Two of Cups predicts, for the most part, that your relationship is solid. The only time the Two of Cups is not good for love readings is when it appears in a ‘negative’ or ‘challenges’ Tarot spread position. If this is the case for you, it can mean that you stay with your partner out of pity. Or, it can mean the opposite; they stand by you because they don’t want your feelings to get hurt.
