The Two of Cups tarot card is a very positive relationship card in the deck. When you pull this card in a reading, it stands for harmony, togetherness, and working as a team to build a strong partnership. The Two of Cups tells you to look for connections in your life, especially those that are one-on-one.
The Two of Cups is the flow of love and connection between two people. It’s a positive card for relationships and matters of the heart and is also associated with decisions about relationships.
The decision is not really about deciding between two different relationships but rather about making a deeper commitment to an existing one.
Decide which question are you asking: “What can I get from this relationship?” or “What can I give to this relationship?”
You can create deep relationships and partnerships based on shared values, compassion, and unconditional love. Your heart is open and ready to receive the energy of love and connection that comes from the Two of Cups. The image of exchanged cups shows us that the emotions of two people, involved in a partnership, will be intertwined.
These relationships will grow and develop into something that is deeply satisfying and rewarding in the long run. But you have to do the work. The Two of Cups is a partnership. You have a shared respect and appreciation for one another, and together you understand each other.
When the Two of Cups card appears in a Tarot reading, it’s possible to begin new partnerships, perhaps in business, love or friendship. This card advises that you pledge yourself to this friendship and put your heart on the line. You have nothing to lose and everything to gain. Life is a relationship game.
Both of you are focused on building a positive relationship that will create a win – win situation for both parties. You see eye to eye and respect what can be brought to the table from each other.
In a Yes or No question in a reading, the Two of Cups is a YES!
