king of cups reversed as advice... what am I supposed to do with this??

ok so I asked my deck what I should do about a situation with a friend who's been really cold lately. pulled the king of cups reversed as advice and I genuinely don't know what to do with that

like... is it telling me I'M the one being emotionally unavailable? or that the other person is? or that I should not be ruled by my feelings here?

I've looked up like 6 different interpretations and they all say something slightly different lol. some say "don't let emotions cloud your judgment" and others say "check your emotional walls" and I'm just more confused now

has anyone gotten king of cups reversed as advice and actually figured out what it was trying to tell you?

Oh this one is so rich and I can see why it's confusing! The King of Cups reversed as advice is actually asking you to look at emotional balance - yours AND the dynamic between you.

The cards whisper: where is the water overflowing? Are you flooding the situation with worry, overthinking every interaction? Or have you been suppressing how hurt you actually are?

The advice isn't to DO something - it's to get honest about the emotional undercurrents first. Trust your inner knowing here. What feels true when you sit quietly with it?

ugh I hate when interpretations contradict each other!! so unhelpful

I got king of cups reversed once in an advice spot and I ended up journaling about it and realized I had been acting really passive aggressive about the whole thing instead of just saying what I meant. not saying that's ur situation but that's where it led me

the advice position is SO tricky bc it can mean like... be more like this card OR avoid being this card's shadow side

for king of cups reversed specifically I always read it as a nudge to not let emotions go underground. like have the actual conversation instead of letting things fester?? just my take

ok update - I reached out to my friend and we actually talked. turns out we both had been holding stuff back and just assuming the worst about each other. the card makes SO much more sense now lol

thanks everyone, sometimes you just need to sit with the discomfort for a bit before the meaning clicks

omg just found this thread googling the exact same thing lol

got king of cups reversed as advice last week about a situation with my sister and I was so confused. the "check your emotional walls" interpretation is what finally clicked for me tho

I realized I'd been holding back from saying how I actually felt because I didn't want to make things worse. but the card was basically telling me to stop being so emotionally guarded and just... talk to her

we had a conversation and it went way better than I expected. so glad I found this thread, the comments here really helped me think it through differently

coming back to this bc someone dm'd me asking how things turned out - me and my friend are actually closer now than before all this happened lol. funny how a confusing card ended up being the push we needed
