Four of Cups

[Dstar]

I've always seen the man in the 4 of cups as missing, or ignoring the cup from the clouds. But in the spirit of the discussion I looked again to see if there might be another intended meaning, and I wondered if he is supposed to be dreaming, or thinking about that 4th cup. His eyes seem shut and he's sat under a tree, could he be resting to think or dream?

the four

hes trying to ignore the cup, he doesent see it, or the cups before him distract him from the cloud cup. perhaps what he needs is a cup to magically appear before him, to jar him out of the stagnation imposed by the aftermath of the three

Does anyone have an earlier, clearer version? It looks as if the boy has his left eye on the cup, his right eye cast downward, and skulking.

When I was in the rooms, an old addage went around; "Don't have one foot in the past, one in the future, while p!$$!ng on the present..."
