On the card

Cups represent emotions, love, and feelings. The two of cups is about a connection that already feels steady, coming into a new age of emotional connection and balance.

The feelings are mutual, you are on the same page and you are making prolonged eye contact. In love and romance this is a steamy card about connecting with another person on a deep level, but it can be a partnership outside of the romantic

Reversed

Something is off balance in a key relationship. Some ruptures can be healed, but pay attention as this card is a sign that a breakup or ending might be what's needed in the long term.

Cups are the suit of Water: feeling and attachment. A Cups card is always, underneath, about what you feel and who you are attached to.

NumberTwo

The numbers tell a story inside each suit, from a seed at the Ace to the full expression at Ten. Two is the first other: the thing meets a second thing and has to negotiate.

The Initiator

Cups are the water suit, so the Two of Cups sits in Cancer. Cancer squares Aries, so the card asks for the move Aries is least fluent in: say the feeling to the person it is about. The friction is the content, not an obstacle to it. Upright, the second thing has actually arrived and the negotiation between them is live.

When reading about money through an Aries lens, the Two of Cups says that you feel like money is the thing you need to move forward, a problem to solve immediately (or spend away), and something that only matters if it is stopping you from doing the next thing. This has either made you resourceful enough to start with nothing and build fast, or left you broke from betting on yourself before you were ready. You have not looked at your full financial picture all at once, and the not-looking costs more than the looking would. The Aries blind spot in it is the feeling that nothing you do makes any difference, that you are not the center of the story.

In practice that can look like spending on someone you love. Whatever form it takes, it is becoming a two person situation.
