Water Damage

The Five of Cups illustrates three cups having spilled their contents onto the ground and is a sign of many things – loss, remorse, hope – but it can also indicate something more immediate: water damage. Have you checked your pipes lately? Water damage can sneak up on you when you least expect it, so it’s key that you check your plumbing and homeowner’s insurance policy. A water damage insurance plan can give you amazing peace of mind and affordable repair.

There are a number of factors that can cause water damage, including leaking roofs, damaged pipes or broken gutters. Here are some tips on how you can prevent water damage. Time is of the essence: water damage builds up over time so act fast when you spot it. Water damage isn’t always obvious, so look in ignored or neglected places such as basements, crawl spaces or behind your fridge. Lastly, think about where you store important personal documents and paperwork to protect yourself in case the unexpected strikes.

Five of Cups

The Fool Tarot Card

The Five of Cups represents loss, regret and the importance of new hope. A young man stares down in despair at three cups of wine, completely oblivious to the two that remain upright. It implies that you're more concerned with what you've lost than with what you still have. Someone may have disappointed or disappointed you. Alternatively, you may have done something you have come to regret and are unable to go forward.

You must have the courage to shift your attention away from the things that have gone wrong in your life and focus on the positive things that remain.

This card is often a sign or omen for something dark or challenging that is on the horizon. It is linked to your emotions, just like the rest of its suit, and it comes with a warning of regret, loss, and disappointment. Expect a life setback, most likely an emotional one. While this may be emotional, and it may be a project or aim in which you have a strong emotional attachment, you will be disappointed. In certain cases, it may also allude to previous occurrences that continue to bring regret or sorrow. The only answer is to be optimistic; this, too, will pass, and you will soon be able to go on.

We are often trained in our culture to conceal our "bad" feelings. We are only permitted to vent our anger, sorrow, and grief in the privacy of our own houses. This creates a sense of guilt surrounding these emotions, leading us to suppress or conceal them even in private. We lose out on a lot of what goes on around us when we retreat into our own caves to vent our sorrow (or wish it would just go away). In moments of grief and sadness, we often feel as though we are marooned on an island, cut off from connection. But this is an isolation of our own creation when we repression. our negative emotions. This is what the Five of Cups represents and the energy it carries.

Remember to Look on the Bright Side

This card also represents not being able to see the positives that remain after loss. The man's gaze is fixed on the ground in front of him, where the three cups have spilled, and he is in sorrowful contemplation. However, immediately behind him, two cups remain upright and full. The sadness he is experiencing over his loss has blinded him to the two cups that are still full. Often when disaster strikes we find it very difficult to look on the bright side. If you have drawn this card, it is critical you don't forget this important lesson. Just as the phoenix rises from the ashes, you too can find healing, growth and spiritual renewal from reflecting on the good that remains.


While the Five of Cups may indicate any type of loss, this card usually pertains to emotional loss. This may imply the end of a relationship, the loss of a friend, or the loss of a lover. Of course, although death may be a part of this loss, it is more frequently a case of sorrow caused by more traditional methods. A divorce, a separation, or just not being permitted to see that person for whatever reason are all possibilities. Do not dismiss the possibility of losing anything more tangible, such as a vehicle, job, or house; if you have a personal, emotional attachment to these items, you will still experience an emotional loss when they are taken away.

The mourning process is an unavoidable part of the grieving process for everyone who has experienced a loss, therefore it's no wonder that the Five of Cups symbolises both sorrow and loss. The Five Stages of Grief have been shown to be a step-by-step process: denial/isolation, anger, bargaining, sadness, and finally acceptance. This card may indicate that you need to embrace the mourning process and start going through the phases.

Finally, this card represents remorse. When someone loses something essential to them, they often express regret for not doing anything while they still had it. For example, they will wish they had spent more time with a loved one who has gone away. This feeling is regret, and it lasts far longer than we expect. This card indicates that you may be regretting something, and that it is time to confront it and move on.

Try asking yourself these questions when you draw the Five of Cups in your readings. What have I recently lost or watched fade away? Am I accepting this loss? Have I gone through the grieving process? How would I respond if I lost someone important to me? Is there something I wished I would have said? Would I have any regrets? Is there anything I can do to prevent that regret?

Take time to reflect on what stage of the grieving process you are in and remember the importance of finding a glimmer or hope in whatever loss you are currently experiencing.
