Reversed
Moods controlling choices. Find your centre again.
Reversed, the King of Cups shows moods controlling choices, or feelings suppressed until they burst out. Someone may be emotionally manipulative or cold. Find your centre again, and speak honestly rather than letting feelings leak out sideways.
