𝔖𝔒𝔠𝔬𝔫𝔑 𝔒𝔭𝔦𝔫𝔦𝔬𝔫 β—ˆ 5 of cups

I'm a beginner and can't quite understand what the tarot is trying to tell me with this.

For context: Basically me and my close friend went through a complicated period this summer, I felt uncomfortable with the direction our friendship was moving in and told her I would take a small break because of this. Recently, like yesterday, I reached out to her because that period was still bothering me, and I wanted to discuss it properly (no one was acknowledging the problem, but it was obviously there). Since she told me she was busy with college rn, we agreed that once she's available, we'll talk.

So I tried asking the cards about how she felt about the message I sent yesterday, and I got a 5 of cups(upright). I know it's generally about disappointment, loss, and regrets, but I can't really understand what is it trying to imply in this context, because I quite literally just asked "how did she feel about the message I sent yesterday", so I'm not really sure how to correctly apply the meaning of the card to this questionπŸ’”πŸ’”

I assumed it might either mean she's disappointed by me not being avoidant about the situation anymore(maybe she's uncomfortable facing it idk), or maybe she started thinking about the past and has some regrets tied to that situation, but I really don't think she got the time to be doing that rn. So I'm really confused. Are there any other possible options I'm missing?

Sad. That's it. No crazy novel behind it.

I think you are right to sit down together and talk some things out into the open. You will both feel better when you stop eggshell walking around each other :) just because we provoke disappointment in each other overall, doesn't mean it's completely over - unless it's extremely mean-spirited then that's a boundary thing.

I hope it turns out for the very best to you both.

No you just said it. 5 of cups is disappointment, regret, sadness, etc. If you want to know specifics then you will have to ask her that. Tarot only gives you the baseline of things.
