Knight of Cups

Titles: Lord of the Waves and the Waters; The King of the Hosts of the Sea; King of Nymphs or Undines
Element: Fire of Water
Astrology: 20° Aquarius - 20° Pisces (♒ ♓ ♓ = 7 of Swords, 8 of Cups, 9 of Cups)
Time: 9 February - 10 March
Symbols/Colours:

he is clothed in black armour furnished with bright wings which, together with the leaping attitude of his white charger, indicates that he represents the most active aspect of Water;
in his right hand he bears a cup from which issues a crab, the cardinal sign of Water, for aggressiveness;
his totem is the peacock, for one of the stigmata of water in its most active form is brilliance;
there is here also some reference to the phenomena of fluorescence.

Personality:

the characteristics of the person signified by this card are nevertheless mostly passive;
he is graceful, dilettante, with the qualties of Venus, or a weak Jupiter;
he is amiable in a passive way;
he is quick to respond to attraction, and easily becomes enthusiastic under such stimulus; but he is not very enduring;
he is exceedingly sensitive to external influence, but with no material depth in his character;
when the card is ill dignified, he is sensual, idle and untruthful;
yet with all this he possesses an innocence and purity which are the essence of his nature. But he is, on the whole, so superficial that it is hard to reach this depth. "His name is writ in water."
