Interpretation of the Card

The man on the card is leaning against a tree, looking bored. He has his eyes closed tightly, arms crossed over his chest, adopting a defensive posture. Three cups are placed in front of him, symbolizing his past experiences. He silently stares at them, indicating that he is trapped in the past and cannot escape. A cup reaching out from the clouds symbolizes a new opportunity. However, this passive and retreating man refuses this chance. Life seems to have no interest for him anymore. He shows complete indifference and coldness towards everything.

Upward Career

In the upright position, the Four of Cups in career indicates a strong sense of imbalance. For general office workers, this card represents stagnation in interpersonal relationships or a temporary pause in current business, which can be seen as occupational burnout. For those running their own companies or personal studios, it suggests that they are overthinking and overcomplicating things, but the actual development is not as expected, leading to great dissatisfaction or frustration.

Reversed Career

In the reversed position, the Four of Cups in career indicates that one has lost control of already stagnant matters and is trying to end them. It is similar to a case currently being promoted that has encountered some problems, forcing one to stop and think of a new path or to pursue a new opportunity.
