The Four of Cups from the Light Seer’s Tarot

Your Tarot Mentor for January 2026:
The Four of Cups

Theme: Underwhelmed

Advice/Action: Jumpstart your joy motor

How it might show up generally:
A compliment from an unexpected source, struggling with detachment, wanting excitement

In relationships: An invitation from someone who isn’t your usual type, trying to love the one you’re with

In work/career: A job offer outside of your usual field, boredom leads to asking superiors for new duties

This card is a tricky one, because it isn’t a bad card. It suggests that there are excellent reasons right in front of you to feel really good. However, it implies that you may not recognize all of the awesome-ness available to you. Intellectually, you may know that you have blessings, but in your heart, you’re not satisfied. It feels like it’s not enough because it’s not exactly what you wanted the way you wanted it. Instead of wallowing in discontent, though, you can use it. Maybe you aren’t feeling connected because you aren’t doing all you can to connect. Or you aren’t fully committing to something that isn’t appearing as you imagined it should. There’s likely something on offer that isn’t exactly what you hoped for but try it anyway. You may find it’s even better than what you were expecting.
