Eight of Cups

A figure in a red cloak walks away from stacked cups. They carry a staff. A moon rises. The path leads toward mountains.

When it lands upright

You are walking away from eight full cups. This is not loss—this is choice. Something in you knows you don't belong at this table anymore.

Reversed · the shadow

You're thinking about leaving but not leaving. Or you're regretting the cups you left behind. The path is still open if you turn around.
