  • apathy
  • boredom
  • missed offer
  • inward gaze

Under a tree, staring at three cups — blind to the fourth being offered. The Four of Cups is discontent's trance: bored of what you have, uninterested in what arrives. Look up.

Reversed

  • waking up
  • acceptance
  • renewed interest

The eyelids lift. Interest returning, an offer finally accepted, or gratitude creeping back in. The trance breaks when you admit you were trancing.
