Four of Cups

Four of Cups

Upright Meaning

Weariness, disgust, aversion, imaginary vexations, as if the wine of this world had caused satiety only; another wine, as if a fairy gift, is now offered the wastrel, but he sees no consolation therein. This is also a card of blended pleasure.

Reversed Meaning

Novelty, presage, new instruction, new relations.

Description

A young man is seated under a tree and contemplates three cups set on the grass before him; an arm issuing from a cloud offers him another cup. His expression notwithstanding is one of discontent with his environment.

In Yes or No Reading

The Four of Cups is a card of stubbornness and refusal. If you're looking for simple Yes or No guidance and receive the Four of Cups, the answer is NO. Wait for a more opportune moment (or a more attractive offer).
