Okay, so, a while back, I got really into this whole Tarot thing. It was more out of curiosity than anything else, you know? I mean, who wouldn’t want a sneak peek into what the future might hold? Anyway, I stumbled upon this card, the Nine of Cups reversed, and I got stuck. See, I was trying to do a simple “yes or no” reading, and this card just threw me for a loop.
Digging into the Meaning
I started pulling cards like crazy, hoping for a straight answer, but it wasn’t that easy. I pulled the Nine of Cups, but it was upside down, which apparently changes the whole game. So, I did what any normal person would do – I hit the internet. I read all these articles and watched videos about what this card means when it’s reversed. Some sources were saying it’s a maybe, others were hinting at a no, and a few were just super vague, talking about unmet expectations and stuff.
- Read about the card: I spent hours reading different interpretations. Some were positive, others not so much.
- Compared notes: I looked at multiple sources to see if there was any kind of consensus. There wasn’t.
- Considered the context: I tried to figure out if the meaning changed based on the question I was asking, which only made things more complicated.
Trying It Out
After all that research, I decided to try the Nine of Cups reversed yes or no reading out on a bunch of different questions. I asked about my job, my relationships, even whether I should get that new phone I was eyeing. You name it, I asked it. I shuffled, I drew, I flipped – the whole nine yards. The results? Well, they were all over the place. Some questions got a “yes” vibe, others a “no,” and some were just straight-up confusing.

The Realization
I kept a little notebook where I recorded all my questions, the draws, and what I thought the cards were trying to tell me. And that’s when it hit me. It was not about getting a direct yes or no. Tarot is not some magic eight-ball. The Nine of Cups reversed, or any card for that matter, was more like a little nudge in one direction or another. It made me think about my situations differently, consider aspects I had not thought of before. I remember asking, “Should I take that new job?” and getting this card. Instead of a clear answer, it got me thinking about whether I was chasing the job for the right reasons or just for the sake of change.
So, yeah, that’s my story with the Nine of Cups reversed and trying to get a “yes or no” answer out of it. It was a mess at first, but it turned out to be a pretty cool journey. I learned that sometimes, the answers aren’t just black and white, and that’s okay. It’s all about the journey, the reflection, and growing from what you learn along the way. And honestly, that’s way more valuable than a simple yes or no.
