King of Cups
Staying calm with your feelings.
What King of Cups can mean for your day
In tradition, a king sits on a throne floating on a rough sea, steady and at ease. He feels things but isn't swept away. Today, stay kind and steady when others get stirred up.
Try: When things get heated, keep your voice calm.
Where it sits in the deck

Cups: feelings, love and friendship. In tradition, the suit of Water.
Court cards are people, or a side of you. Page: the beginner, curious and keen. Knight: the doer, all action. Queen: the one who understands it from the inside. King: the one who's in charge of it.
