Eight of Cups

Keywords

On a moonlit night, a man in red clothing leaves with a staff, abandoning the eight cups he painstakingly built. The densely distributed swamps around symbolize stagnant emotions. He leaves because he discovers a flaw in the cup he built. Thus, to find a perfect cup, he abandons the eight already-built cups behind him. He could have taken the eight cups to look for the defective one, but he doesn’t do so. He wears red clothes and shoes, symbolizing his action power. It can be seen from the picture that the central theme of this card is abandonment. The absence of one among the eight cups symbolizes that there are always imperfections in all things. Those who are not satisfied with this will continue to pursue. It represents a certain spirit of sacrifice.
