The Ace of Cups represents the beginning of love, fertility and creativity. It is a card to inspire confidence and happiness. When it turns up a reading of an everyday nature it can indicate represent the beginning of a project in which a great deal of loving energy is invested; or sometimes it can reveal conception - the beginning of a new life. But at a spiritual level the Ace of Cups is even more important. The chalice depicted on most versions of this card is taken to be the Holy Grail, or in pagan terms, the Cauldron of Kerridwyn - source of inspiration and granter of wishes and dreams. (Angel Paths)
