The Eight of Cups is a card used in Latin-suited playing cards, which include tarot decks. It is part of what tarot card readers call the "Minor Arcana".
This card indicates changes in emotional attachments, departures, and breaking of links with the past. This card usually carries the meaning of disillusionment and abandonment of things which have not been emotionally fulfilling. It features a man wearing a red cloak with a staff walking on rocky terrain, as if walking away from the viewer, eight cups stacked on the ground, with the moon in the sky.
