Hello guys,

 

how would you describe 8oC person?

 

-someone who is far away from a seeker

-someone who is dissatisfied, restless and he walks away....a wanderer

-mysterious person with a lot of hidden things inside

-elusive, irrepressible, beyond seeker´s control

 

....what do you think?How is your idea of 8oC guy?

I think an 8 of Cups person might be the type to walk away when they've had enough of a person or a situation; but at least they'll put their affairs in order first- they won't leave you in the lurch.  I think they might also be the kind of person who would put their spiritual quests above everything else.

I'm confused - are you asking in the title of this thread how someone who is the Eight of Cups sees you, or how someone sees you as being the Eight of Cups.  To add to my confusion, your post doesn't mention either of these questions.  Rather, you ask "how would you describe 8oC person?".  These are three very different things.  (Of course, I am often easily confused, so maybe I'm just missing the point.)

 

As far as how to describe a person represented by this card, both you and Night Shade could be accurate, but I'd need to know something about the situation to determine which one makes more sense in terms of the Eight of Cups in question.  If you indeed meant to ask how the Eight of Cups sees someone as a person, or how someone sees you as being the Eight of Cups, again I would need some background. 

 

Let's just examine the question of how to describe an Eight of Cups person.

 

For example, you may be in a previously close and intense relationship with someone whose energy is now focused elsewhere.  Their level of engagement with their partner may have lessened. They are still loving and kind, but increasingly distant.  They may be Eight of Cups.  Night Shade's interpretation makes sense.

 

On the other hand, if the person in question has never fully engaged with their partner and has always been distant and preoccupied with other concerns, perhaps your description is more accurate.  They may also be the Eight of Cups.  No Tarot card is one-size-fits-all. 

 

If cards always meant the same things every time they were pulled, reading Tarot would be mechanical, like assembling a piece of furniture from a set of instructions.  Instead, it's an art, like building furniture from raw wood and vision.

 

It is important to be clear about what you are asking the cards, and it is important to read for that specific question.  Do you want to know how an Eight of Cups in your life sees you, how you might be seen as an Eight of Cups, or how to see someone else as an Eight of Cups?

I think they can be seen as someone quite withdrawn, not the greatest person you want to spend time with. They might be in their own thoughts and dreams or trying to move to a positive place for themselves. It seems a bit negative that it's not a person you really want to be around (or they might be a lot of hard work) but give them time, they will come through this and be in a more positive place.

 

So if you are this person, you are probably on an emotional and internal journey (maybe a external journey) of moving away from difficult times. It takes time but keep pushing ahead to a positive new place / cycle. If this is someone you know, give them patience, this is a person in emotional transition :)

On its own, I would lean towards your second meaning. I might even go a little further, depending on the relationship between the "someone" and the "you."  If this was, for example, a potential romantic interest, there are two ways it could go: "He's not particularly interested in what you have to offer," (i.e. you're the cups) or "He sees you as someone who isn't interested in what he has to offer," (i.e., he's the cups).

 

The context of the surrounding cards would guide me as to which of those made more sense, as well as my conversations with the querent.

Dear Oumee[/member] - As I reread my previous comment, I fear that I sound critical in the following parts:

Please know that was not my intent and I apologize.  Further, everyone else seems to understand what you meant so the fault is clearly mine!

Hello guys,

 

Grandma[/member] , no worries my dear. I do not consider your contribution as an offensive one or rude or impolite, whatever, there is no bad blood involved from my side :)

Maybe I should express my ideas, thoughts in more understandable way :)

 

Catspur[/member] DanielJUK[/member] Night Shade[/member] thank you so much for your insights. You brought light into my query regarding this card, thank you so much.

Someone who turns their back and walks away from situations that are not fulfilling.

This is the person who is totally disillusioned and pissed off, and after realising that everything that glitters is not gold of the 7 of cups then the people they meet at this time they will treat with the same ample amount of effrontery.  They have gone to find themselves spiritually, and this we do when we are alone and broken. 

However, they will be back to get those cups by the shoreline when they have faced themselves and got to know the moon.  The 9 of cups see's them contented and fat (not with gluttony) but with love, experience and wisdom, which free's up their mature soul for true love of the family in the 10 of cups.

I took the question to be what an 8 of Cups person would be seen as---or could be seen as. My answer in that case would be that they could be seen as one Cup short of a party. They're considering whether or not he'd be a fun date and the decision would be that they might not be much fun. Or that they're primarily interested in getting good and plowed before the date is over.

 

It could also mean they're too obviously looking for someone to settle down with. They don't want to form friendships, they're just intent on a romantic partner. You probably know the kind---they're kind of desperate and grasping?

 

Or they're still pining after an old love. All the new prospects seem to be lacking something in comparison.
