Card Description

A young man sits under a tree with crossed arms, staring at three cups on the ground before him. A fourth cup is offered by a hand emerging from a cloud, but he does not see it. His posture suggests withdrawal and dissatisfaction.

Four of Cups Reversed

Emerging from apathy, seeing new possibilities, accepting what is being offered, or realizing that gratitude is the antidote to discontentment.

Four of Cups in Love

In love, the Four of Cups suggests boredom, emotional withdrawal, or taking a partner for granted. Are you looking past what is right in front of you? Something good may be waiting if you lift your eyes.

Four of Cups in Career

Professional dissatisfaction or boredom. You may be feeling uninspired by opportunities that others would envy. Before rejecting what is offered, make sure you are not idealizing what you do not have.

Four of Cups in Spirituality

Meditation and contemplation are called for, but be mindful of the line between reflection and withdrawal. Sometimes the divine is reaching out, and you need to notice.

The Card's Advice

Look up. Something is being offered to you that you have not noticed yet.
