[Body]
Alright, let’s talk about this… this “four of cups” thing, you know? Like, what’s the deal with them feelings, huh? It’s like this card, right? Got a fella sittin’ there, lookin’ all mopey. And cups, yeah, cups all around him. But he ain’t happy. Not one bit.
So, what’s it mean when you pull this card? Well, I reckon it’s like this: that person you’re askin’ about? They ain’t feelin’ it. Plain and simple. Maybe they think you ain’t listenin’ to ’em. Like when you’re talkin’ to your young’uns and they’re starin’ off into space? Yeah, kinda like that. Or maybe they think you just don’t care. Like you’re offerin’ ’em somethin’, a nice cup of tea, maybe, but they just turn their nose up at it. They ain’t interested, see?
This here card, it’s all about bein’ shut off. Like they built a wall around their heart, you know? Maybe they got too much goin’ on, too much on their plate. They just can’t handle no more feelin’s, no more connections. It’s like they’re sayin’, “No thanks, I’m full up.” They might be settin’ boundaries, like, “Stay away, I need my space.” Or maybe they’re just plain disinterested. Like, they couldn’t care less if you showed up with a whole wagon full of them cups.
It’s like that time ol’ Martha down the road, she wouldn’t talk to nobody after her prize-winning pig ran off. She was just sittin’ there, starin’ out the window, wouldn’t even look at you. That’s kinda what this four of cups feelin’ is like. A whole lotta “leave me be” goin’ on.
- They might be thinkin’ too much, too. You know, overthinkin’ everything. Like, “Should I do this? Should I do that?” And they get so caught up in their own head, they can’t see what’s right in front of ’em.
- And sometimes, this card means they’re just plain unhappy. They got a good life, maybe, but they’re always lookin’ for somethin’ more, somethin’ better. They can’t appreciate what they got, always chasin’ after somethin’ they ain’t got. It’s like that fella in the card, starin’ at them cups, but still lookin’ glum.
So, what do you do if you pull this card? Well, first off, you gotta figure out what’s goin’ on. Is it you? Are you not listenin’? Are you not payin’ attention? Or is it them? Are they just bein’ stubborn? Are they goin’ through somethin’ tough? Sometimes, you just gotta give ’em space. Let ’em work through their feelin’s. Don’t push ’em, don’t nag ’em. Just let ’em be.
But if it’s you, well, then you gotta fix it. You gotta listen better, you gotta show ’em you care. You gotta offer ’em somethin’ real, somethin’ they can hold onto. Not just empty words, but somethin’ that shows you’re there for ’em.
This four of cups card, it ain’t a bad card, not really. It’s just a warnin’. A warnin’ to pay attention. A warnin’ to be present. A warnin’ to make sure you’re connectin’ with the people you care about. Because if you don’t, well, they might just turn away, like that fella in the card, and you’ll be left standin’ there with a whole lotta empty cups.
And it ain’t just about romantic feelin’s neither, mind you. It can be about any kind of relationship. Friends, family, even your work buddies. If you ain’t connectin’ with them, if you ain’t showin’ them you care, well, they might just drift away. It’s like tendin’ a garden, you gotta water them plants, you gotta give ’em sunshine, or they’ll wither and die. Same goes for relationships.
So next time you see this four of cups card, don’t just brush it off. Take a good long look at it. And ask yourself, “Who ain’t listenin’? Who ain’t carin’? And what can I do to fix it?” Because at the end of the day, that’s all that matters. Connectin’ with the people you love, and makin’ sure they know you’re there for ’em. That’s the real treasure, not all them fancy cups.
Now, I ain’t no fancy tarot reader or nothin’. Just an ol’ woman who’s seen a thing or two. But I reckon this card is tellin’ you somethin’ important. Don’t ignore it. Listen to your gut, and do what you gotta do to make things right.
