Seven of Cups

A silhouetted figure faces a cloud-castle in which seven cups hover, each holding a different vision — a face, a snake, jewels, a laurel, a dragon, a tower, a sheeted ghost — the Seven of Cups is the hour of too many dreams. Possibility has become its own trap. The choice is real; the cups are not all what they appear. Discernment is the spell that breaks the glamour.

Clarity returning — the illusion dissolves, or the opposite: a decision finally made, sometimes impulsively, because the dreaming has exhausted you. Check whether you are choosing from vision or from fatigue.
