It's time to make a big decision.

So many options are before you. How will you ever choose? When the Seven of Cups card appears in a tarot reading, it is guaranteed that A LOT of opportunities are available for you. A decision must be made, and it should be made soon, but not too soon. There is a delicate balance between picking something because of its dazzling allure or the projections of dreamy expectations of fantasies, and thinking about the real-world facts and possible consequences of the choice.
Don't be seduced by wishful thinking! It’s wonderful to dream about potential, but if you spend too much time with your head in the clouds fantasizing and not enough time doing things in the real world, opportunities WILL slip by, and I would hate that for you! Let this card prompt you try to see opportunities, situations, and people for what they really and truly are, rather than what you wish they could be. Make your decisions accordingly.

Seven of Cups Upright Meaning
“Everything will be SO much better when XYZ happens.” Does that sound familiar? It’s very easy to get caught up in the fantasy of how everything will be so wonderful and perfect and a dream come true when the one thing that is just out of reach happens. When you get that dream job title, when you look exactly as you wish to, when you meet the perfect person. I totally get it, and it's good to dream—but this is a warning that you are hinging a bit too much on your fantasy, and it's preventing you from seeing what’s actually here in front of you.
There is SO much more that you can actually do right now instead of waiting for your fantasy to come true. The grass is always greener in your imagination, and not everything is as you hoped for once you actually get it. If you're going to be really real, then get real: Nothing is actually perfect, and everything has pros and cons. Real magic requires real work in both the physical and the astral plane. What’s one practical step you can take today to start making your dreams a reality?? It feels good to do the real work!
Seven of Cups Reversed Meaning
Ding, ding! This is your cosmic wakeup call! It’s beyond time for you to stop sleepwalking through life, rather than taking a proactive role and consciously choosing what you desire to do next. Let’s get grounded in reality, bb. It’s imperative that you do some soul-searching, think long-term, and start making better decisions for yourself.
This is about living up to your OWN expectations, not anyone else’s ideals of what they think you should do. If you feel stuck and completely paralyzed as to which path to take, which choice to make, simply narrow down your options, my darling! It’s just as valuable to know what you DON'T want as to do. Eliminate the obvious nos and work from there. See? It’s not so difficult after all.
