The Knight Cards In Tarot

KNIGHT OF CUPS

Knight of Cups

Regardless of their sex, the Knight of Cups is naturally alluring and oozing with charms. He doesn’t have to be in love with anyone else- just with love itself. His emotions serve as his map for direction in life. The knight is more emotional than logical.

When they need to come up with an important decision, they would always go for their heart’s content. As the saying goes, the heart wants what it wants. Decisions could be made on a whim. As long as there is a feeling of warmth, love, and need.

The Knight of Cups is usually a premonition. This is a message that something or someone is about to arrive that will fill an emotional void. It is an enticing invitation that will bring you to greater heights.

Aside from physical manifestations, it could also symbolize much-needed wisdom. Something to see you through during the darkest days of your life.

KNIGHT OF PENTACLES

This Knight works in a very planned and systematic way. His visions are nothing out of the ordinary, nor his techniques original in any aspect. But he makes it a point that everything he does will lead only to success.

This could get you in trouble because you are not really thinking or considering the consequences of your actions. Haste makes waste.

His long-term success is what will suffer the most if he doesn’t learn to reign in his emotions. Without any laid-out plans or backup solutions to obstacles he will encounter, his journey will be a never-ending battle of wits.

The Knight of Wands must learn to control his aggression. Other people may be offering sound advice and valuable input. But you’re just too stubborn to listen.

Usually, the Knight of Wands appears when you plan to change careers, residence, or any other living arrangements. When deciding, make sure you review all your options and arrive at the best one. That way, you’ll have no regrets. No matter what the outcome.
