Four of Cups
The card depicts Loki resting against a tree with four drinking horns tipped in a puddle, suggesting withdrawal, contentment, and deliberate contemplation. The empty horns and his closed eyes emphasize taking a break, evaluating your position, and overcoming distractions. Reversed, the card encourages movement and renewal: find something new, stretch, get moving, seek inspiration, and reconnect with your surroundings. The presence of a stallion and the eight-legged Sleipnir hints at astonishing origins or unexpected events, while the Bind Rune reminds you to rest and enjoy life.

Loki rests up against a tree. He folds his arms behind his neck, and his eyes are closed. Four drinking horns appear before him in a puddle of water. They are on their side and seem to be empty.

Visual Description
A tattooed man with small horns rests against the roots of a large tree, eyes closed and hands behind his head as if in contemplation. Two horses — one adult and one foal — stand quietly in the misty background beneath a canopy of branches. Several drinking horns lie by a still pool in the foreground, and a horn-shaped emblem bearing the number 4 appears at the top of the image; faint glowing symbols hover near the tree.
