The distinctive feature of the Nine of Cups is its extreme degree of manifestation.
.
Moreover, due to the intensity of its manifestation, the Nine of Cups often triggers the manifestation of the One or the Five of Cups. Just like lightning in the sky provokes a clap of thunder and a fire. Although one accompanies the other – these are different events and cards.
.
With regard to memories, the Nine of Cups resembles a certain, often illusory, ideal of perception.
.
For instance, certain lines from A.S. Pushkin's poem "I remember a wonderful moment …" 234 234 "To Kern" A.S. Pushkin . I remember a wonderful moment: Before me you appeared, Like a vision, fleeting, momentary, Like a genius of the purest beauty. . In the languor of hopeless melancholy, In the anxieties of noisy bustle, That voice rang out so tenderly, And I dreamed of your lovely face. . The years flew quickly. The storm's rebellious blast Scattered the dreams of former times, And I forgot your gentle voice, And the features of your heavenly face. . In wilderness, in gloomy isolation, My days dragged quietly, No god, no inspiration, No tears, no life, no love. . Then to my soul an awakening came: And there again your face appeared, Like a vision, fleeting, momentary, Like a genius of the purest beauty. . And my heart beats with a rapture new, And for him they arose again And deity, and inspiration, And life, and tears, and love. .
vividly illustrate the Nine of Cups.

The wife goes off on a business trip. The husband and cat stay at home.
Day One:
The cat goes up to its feed bowl:
– Yuuuuuuuck… buckwheat…
It snorts and refuses to eat.
Comes up the day next:
– Yuck-yuck-yuck… yesterday's buckwheat…
Jerks its tail indignantly and leaves.
On the third day:
– Yum! Buckwheat!!!
And quickly devours everything without a trace.

"Tens", according to the Kabbalah, are transformation, metamorphosis, transition to a new state.
Cups (Hearts) are emotions, feelings, memories.
So, the Ten of Cups is a transformation, metamorphosis, transition to a new state of feelings, emotions, memories.
For example, this corresponds to expressions such as "to be reborn", "to become a different person", "spiritual rebirth".

"… small and insignificant" – the thing is, the human consciousness and sense organs don't distinguish between the Absolute Kabbalistic Zero and closely related manifestations. Although these two are by no means the same, this guide also examines practical aspects and examples of the "zero" card.
