Is the Seven of Cups a Yes or a No?
Seven cups float in a cloud, each holding something different and one holding a shrouded figure. The answer is no for now: the question is being asked from fantasy or from too many open doors, and nothing becomes real until one cup is picked up. The card is about choosing, not getting. On the card: Seven cups float in clouds, each containing different symbols representing various temptations and choices: jewels, a castle, a laurel wreath, a dragon, a head, a snake, and a shrouded figure.
Why is the Seven of Cups a No?
The verdict comes from the picture. The seven cups stands for multiple choices: overwhelming options. The castle stands for power and achievement: worldly success option. The jewels stands for material wealth: riches and luxury.
Seven of Cups in love questions

Not until a choice is made. Seven of Cups has no timeline; the clouds stay until you reach into one.
