Four of Cups
The Four of Visions represents dissatisfaction, cynicism, and an inability to appreciate life's simple wonders. It warns against letting negativity and routine blind you to the magic that surrounds you daily. True happiness comes from recognizing and cherishing small moments rather than waiting for grand revelations. The card encourages opening your eyes to the miracles already present in your life.

Meaning
A young man sits on the shore of a forest pond. He is dissatisfied, sullen, and shows no interest in life. He ventured into the forest because he grew tired of his daily routine, but even in this magical place, he remains bored. He could be anywhere—on a city street or in a barren desert—but his vision is clouded by his own melancholy. Wonders surround him, but his cynicism and negative attitude toward life prevent him from noticing them. Even the kingfisher in its sparkling magnificence cannot dispel his gloom. He himself doesn't know what he wants.
Personal Reflection
Have you forgotten where you left your happiness? Perhaps you were expecting to win the lottery or have a crucial revelation that would awaken your enthusiasm. The truth is that lasting happiness consists of small moments. You need only open your eyes to the wonders that surround you.
Brief Meaning
Dissatisfaction. Cynicism. Melancholy and boredom. Ungrateful attitude toward life.
If You Look Closely
This young man ignores the rare forest inhabitants, such as the kingfisher bird, the cyclamen flower, the herb paris (also known as true lover's knot), and the broad-leaved helleborine, and even the brimstone butterfly on his knee.
