Description
Two cups, filled to the brim, receive drops that ripple their surfaces. The cups are rough hewn, but they blend together smoothly as the couple holding them toast their life together. It makes for a scene of calm against a background of the unsettled emotions of the past.
Symbolism
The merging of the cups indicates the joining of two separate lives in a lifelong commitment. The area of merged liquid symbolizes the new relationship as a whole derived from two separates. The use of male and female hands indicates the differences that a couple brings to their union, which enrich each and complete each other's lives.
Card Meaning
Are you ready to join, to make two into one? Sometimes this card does indeed indicate a relationship of love, but often the relationship is a friendship or business acquaintance that figures prominently in the time to come. Focusing on a common goal or value is often the clearest path to a strong union of divergent individuals.
