Ten of Cups

Family under a rainbow - emotional completion.

The Ten of Cups tarot card, Rider–Waite–Smith deck
Rider–Waite–Smith deck, 1909 - public domain

Ten of Cups upright

A couple raise their arms toward a rainbow of ten cups; two children dance below. Domestic harmony rendered as iconography.

Hold the long view. The Ten of Cups isn't the daily state - it's the season worth pointing toward when the daily gets hard.

Ten of Cups reversed

Reversed, the picture and the reality don't match. A family or relationship that looks settled from outside but isn't.
