Upright

New Feelings, Intuition, Spirituality, Love, Emotional Awakening

A dove drops a wafer into the cup, from which five streams of water pour down, symbolizing the opening of emotional and spiritual fountains. Upright represents a new love, a deep emotional connection, or the budding of a spiritual awakening. The heart opens wide to love, intuition becomes exceptionally sharp, and it is a rich time to feel and express love.

Reversed
