Properties of 4 of Cups

 

Alternate Names: Luxury

 

Keywords / Additional Meanings:

Contrarieties. Reversed: Presentiment.

 

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.

Divinatory 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.
