The Four of Cups represents a period of introspection, withdrawal, and contemplation. It often signifies a time when the querent is dissatisfied with their current circumstances and feels disconnected from the world around them. The figure in the card is sitting with crossed arms, appearing uninterested in the cups being offered to him. He may be feeling bored or apathetic, or he may be so focused on his own inner world that he fails to see the opportunities that are being presented to him. In a sense, the Four of Cups can be seen as a warning against becoming too wrapped up in one's own thoughts and emotions, as this can lead to a lack of engagement with the outside world.
