Knight of Cups
A cup held out like an offering, carried at a dreamer's pace.
The imagery
A knight in armor and a fish-patterned tunic rides a white horse slowly toward a stream, holding a cup outstretched. Wings decorate the helmet and heels, recalling Hermes as a messenger. Unlike the charging knights of other suits, this one moves gently, carrying feeling and invitation rather than force.

romance · idealism · charm · following the heart · invitation
This Knight may be a romantic, idealistic person arriving with an invitation, or your own heart urging you toward something beautiful. Follow your feelings with grace, and let yourself make a heartfelt gesture. Creativity and romance flourish when you lead with sincerity. Just make sure the dream has some ground beneath it.
Reversed
moodiness · unrealistic expectations · emotional manipulation · disappointment
Charm may be covering moodiness, or idealism is setting you up for disappointment. You or someone close might promise more than can be delivered emotionally. Notice whether feelings are being expressed honestly or used to persuade. Romance should feel like an offering, not a performance.
In love
Romantic proposals, sweet declarations, and being swept up in feeling. Enjoy it while watching for consistency.
In work
Pursue work that feels meaningful and creative. An appealing offer may arrive; check the details carefully.
