Another meaning is that you are eager to leave before the time to leave, instead of facing this state and pursuing it with courage. The eight handstands of the Holy Grail can be a lack of self-confidence or inner strength, which makes you give up a state that is actually worth investing in. It can also be described that when difficulties come, or when you need sincere commitment, you want to escape. So when this card is turned upside down, you should listen carefully to your inner voice, not your irrational fear.
When this card stands upside down, it usually represents little emotional power. Either you lack the courage to commit to a situation that can meet your needs, or you are afraid to leave a situation that can't meet you at all. This may mean that your thinking, mind and past emotional patterns are confused.
It's time to calm down. Before you act, you should go back to your upright position and think deeply about your inner needs. It is important that when you set out, you can be sure that you will take action instead of repeating the same mistake.
