What does Nine of Cups mean upright?

Contentment, wishes granted and pleasure taken without apology. This is the deck's wish card — satisfaction that has arrived and is simply yours to enjoy. Savour it and let it be enough for now. The Nine of Cups says you are allowed to be happy with what you have.

What does Nine of Cups mean reversed?

Satisfaction that doesn't satisfy, or a wish granted that turns out hollow. You may have got exactly what you asked for and found it was the wrong thing. Look at what you actually wanted underneath. Pleasure is not the same as fulfilment.
