The defining feature of the Seven of Cups – getting rid of "unnecessary" emotional baggage.

.

The Seven of Cups (getting rid of "wrong" emotions) is closely related to a reversed Ten of Cups (regret, remorse, "negative" transformation of feelings). Often, in fact, they are mutually interconnected. Therefore, it's easy to confuse a Seven of Cups with a reversed Ten of Cups.

But these are different cards. Both in terms of sign as well as numerical value. To distinguish between them, you should always look at the sign of the card.

Regret, remorse, guilt, shame are, first and foremost, a "reversed", "negative" numerical value. And only after that does the actual cause of the psychic transformation (that is, the Ten) follow.
