I. Meaning of the Four of Cups Gilded Tarot

On the Four of Cups Gilded Tarot, we can see a dreamy young man leaning against a tree. Even though there are three tempting glasses of wine next to him, he ignores them anyway. He fantasizes about something better; he is awarded an even better one. The squirrel in the tree and the mouse in the grass pay more attention to the gift than to the young man who receives it. Romantic ideas in his head can cause him to miss out on opportunities he will probably regret later. This card reflects the negative side of The Emperor Gilded Tarot, the character of the card numbered IV of the Major Arcana. The desire for order and stability can lead to an unreal search for perfection, leading to a tendency to disregard reality.
