“Overcoming creative blockages.”
Page of Cups (Reversed) | Tarot Card
When the Page of Cups appears reversed in a tarot reading, it often signifies a period where your creativity feels blocked or stifled.
Even the greatest artists experience lulls in their creative brilliance. If you've been feeling a lack of motivation to express yourself, it's time to shift the energy. When creativity is blocked, it is often because you are thinking too much about perfection. Creativity is messy, especially if it’s any good. Express the imperfect more and analyze less. This will get your creative juices flowing again. Once your creativity becomes unleashed it will gain momentum.
Do you strive for perfection instead of excellence?
The Page of Cups tarot card represents the inner-child who thrives on creativity. It encourages you to reconnect with the wonder and curiosity you had as a child. Creative expression is unique to each person, and the Page of Cups invites you to let loose and create something beautiful. This sensitive poet of the tarot follows his heart and enjoys playful, imp-like pranks.
If you're holding back your creativity because you don't consider yourself an artist, remember that everyone has creative energy. Just like the Page of Cups, who dresses in pink and blue, representing love, harmony, communication, and depth. He is a master at communicating his feelings through creativity and gives voice to emotions that are often difficult to express.
The Page of Cups carries his pet fish, representing depth, creative wisdom, and luck. Water lilies on his tunic symbolize that he flourishes in the realm of emotions. He is very sensitive, but he doesn't let that stop him from having fun.
When the Page of Cups appears in a tarot reading, it's a call to reconnect with your creative inner-child. Don't let your inner critic hold you back; instead, let your creativity be a channel for your emotions. Children trust in the magic of creating without worrying about perfection, and you can too. So go ahead and paint that picture, make a craft, or simply play! Let your creativity keep you occupied and free from fear.
In summary, the Page of Cups is a reminder to embrace your creative energy, follow your heart, and express yourself in ways that bring joy and playfulness into your life.
The Page of Cups reversed asks you to release any pressure you feel about being productive.
Creativity flows when you are in tune with your depth. Neglected feelings have the potential to hijack an entire project until they are finally felt and transmuted into your work.
Creativity needs to flow naturally, much like the water depicted on the card. Accept where you are and go with the flow. The Page of Cups upright or reversed asks you to lighten up and remember what you enjoy about the task at hand. Open your heart center and stop overthinking. Literalism and nitpicking are creative buzz-kills. Inject fun into what you are doing and watch your creativity flow.
