Four of Cups

house, family, routine

Four cups set out neatly, two above and two below, form a solid structure. In the Spanish deck this is the card of the house and the family atmosphere. It speaks of stability, a home that runs well and household matters like renovations, moving or family business. Its less friendly side is routine, that point where everything is fine but the spark is missing.

In love

A steady, comfortable relationship, maybe too comfortable. Suggest something new to shake up the routine. If you're single, someone from your close circle could surprise you.

Career and money

A secure job without much happening. A good time for spending on the house, like furniture or repairs, as long as you run the numbers before you start.

Health

You're fine, though a bit flat from the routine. Change a small habit at home, like when you go to bed or what you eat.

Reversed

Trouble at home, family arguments, a move that gets complicated or the feeling that you're not comfortable in your own house.

As a person

A homebody who's close to family and values stability. A relative, a neighbor or the person you share your home with.
