39-Four of Primordialism – Upright Mage Deck

Your Chosen Card – Four of Primordialism Upright Mage Deck

When upright, the Four of Cups suggests that you are going through a period of discontent, apathy, stagnation, and dissatisfaction. The pleasures of life just don’t seem to perk you up. You may feel unfulfilled, as if something essential were missing from your life. Perhaps you are suffering from depression or wallowing in self-pity. You feel stuck in a rut as you focus on the glass being half empty. You need to confront your imaginary vexations and find a way to motivate yourself to move forward. Are you focusing on the cloud rather than its silver lining? Take advantage of the gifts and opportunities that surround you. This card’s association with the Moon suggests that you may need to wait until the proper moment in the cyclic to achieve your goal. The phases of the Moon are a reminder that ‘to every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven’ (Eccleisates 3, KJV).

Keywords Upright: Ennui, reflection, blended pleasure, anticipation, presage, premonition, novelty, new instruction, fresh possibilities, new goals, the need to wait for a desired outcome to manifest.

Timing: 20 Cancer–30 Cancer. Tropical, 12 July–21 July. Sidereal, 6 August–17 August.
Astrology: The emotional and inconstant Moon (dignified) in the third decan of watery Cancer, realm of the Waite King/Thoth Prince of Wands (Air of Earth) and the Chariot (Cancer). The Moon is linked to the High Priestess.
Number Symbolism: 4 – structure, stability, order, logic, foundation, manifestation.

Rider Waite: A young man is seated under a tree and contemplates three cups set on the grass before him; an arm issuing from a cloud offers him another cup. His expression notwithstanding is one of discontent with his environment. Divinatory Meanings: Weariness, disgust, aversion, imaginary vexations, as if the wine of this world had caused satiety only; another wine, as if a fairy gift, is now offered the wastrel, but he sees no consolation therein; also a card of blended pleasure; (R) novelty, presage, new instruction, new relations, presentiment.

Development for Beginners: Step 8: After you have become satisfied with the results of your visualization exercises, return to normal brain wave levels by repeating the following words to yourself 3-5 times, ‘I feel better at the alpha level. I am more in tune with my psychic abilities. I am in control of the images in my mind’s eye. Now, I am returning to normal brain wave levels, and as I do so, I feel no discomfort.’
