Four of Cups Tarot Card Description
The card shows the image of a person sitting under a tree. His hands are crossed which depicts that he is in deep thought, contemplating things and also meditating. He is so occupied by his thoughts that he does not see a hand offering him a cup. There are three cups kept right in front of him which he fails to see. They are considered as opportunities open in front of him.
This card foretells that you have endless opportunities flowing in front of you but you are saying no to them for the time being and turning them down. It might be that you do not like the offer or you already have too much on the plate to deal with.
You should think and analyse to include or take up things which are important. Whether new or old opportunities, do not hesitate from declining if it is not important. At times, when this card appears, you do not fully decline the offer or accept it instead you wait for a sign to get clarity whether to take the opportunity or not. You consider analysing the opportunity from all aspects.
It can also showcase that your life is going usual and boring, with nothing happening out of the box. You might be feeling demotivated and pathetic. You need to go deep internally and evaluate your life to understand your situation. Re-establish yourself and find out purpose and direction in life. Now could be the time to exclude yourself from any kind of distraction and listen to your own voice.
You have shut yourself because of the rejection before. Thus your closed arms show have cut yourself from the surrounding. Such a failure can be experienced in love too. Due to this, you may miss out on some excellent opportunities.
