Is Nine of Cups a yes or a no?

The answer

Yes — plainly, and about as close to a guarantee as this suit gives.

What argues for it

It is close to what you actually asked for. Not a compromise dressed up as one.

Reversed

It would satisfy most of what you wanted, which is more than most things manage.

When it moves

Close, arriving on the strength of what you've already built. Nothing new is required of you first.

What to do about it

Enjoy this. What you've been working toward has actually arrived, and there's no need to immediately discount it or brace for it to be taken back.

Reversed

Check whether the satisfaction you're describing is real or whether you're performing it for whoever's watching.
