Not being satisfied with what you have; letting the offered cup pass without even seeing it.
Four of Cups upright
Not being satisfied with what you have; letting the offered cup pass without even seeing it. Cups belong to water: feelings, relationships and intuition. A Cups card asks what you feel, not what you think.
Four of Cups reversed
The boredom lifts; you finally notice the hand reaching out and take what it offers.
A reversed card is not automatically bad news. It can mean the upright meaning is weaker, turned inward, or flipped; the cards around it tell you which.
In love and relationships
Dissatisfaction in the relationship; not seeing what's already there, or turning down a hand that's held out.
Work and money
Boredom at work; even when offers come in, nothing sparks your interest.
Advice
Being bored with what you have doesn't make it worthless. The source of the boredom may not be outside you. If you're bored of the same thing a second time, the problem isn't the thing.
Is Four of Cups yes or no?
No. This card leans toward no, or not like this: what you are asking about runs into the obstacle the card describes.
Astrological correspondence
