Four of Cups
The Four of Cups depicts a figure absorbed in inward reflection, symbolizing evaluation and missed opportunities. It warns that being too caught up in your own thoughts can cause you to ignore new offers and chances being presented.

Meaning
A woman sits in meditation underneath a tree. In front of her stand three cups, symbolizing passed opportunities. A gentle hand offers her another cup, yet she does not open her eyes to this new chance. The Four of Cups suggests that you are being offered opportunities but are missing them because you are too caught up inside your own head. Although it is good to be introspective and pursue inner wisdom, you may miss out on things if you don't look up. This is a reminder to open your heart and mind, saying yes to opportunities laying out in front of you.
Visual Description
A faceless figure with long blonde hair sits cross-legged against the trunk of a large tree, wearing a purple striped top and pants. Three ornate purple cups sit on the grass in front of the figure while a fourth cup is extended toward them on the right by a disembodied hand. A river or body of water lies behind the tree and the sky is washed in pink and purple tones of sunset. Wisps of smoke or mist curl around the figure and the tree, and at the bottom of the card the title reads "FOUR OF CUPS."
