How to Read the Fours | Tarot Cards Video Lecture | Tarot Reading: Read Tarot Cards to know all the Answers - Professional Skills

hello
this is Ellen Goldberg and I welcome you
to a tarot moment with the school of
Oracle's in this segment we're going to
take a brief overview of the fours of
each of the suits of the Minor Arcana
the fours belong to the Saphira on the
tree of life called has said and has
said means mercy it's the first Saphira
to receive the energy after it leaves
the tops of her neural triangle or the
Godhead and so this is when the tree
bursts in two color acids mercy it's
ruled by Jupiter so it's incredibly
beneficent gifts without regard to the
merit or the deserving nosov the
recipient it just gives gratuitously in
the same way that the world the kabbala
say was given and is constantly created
ritu --it ously as a gift from the
divine the name of the number four is
order this is not Kabbalistic these are
things that are more Pythagorean but we
know the number four Foursquare is a
very common idiom in English for law and
order being really a straight and solid
person and certainly a square or cube is
a very solid item the name of the number
four is order and order is something
that every four is going to show us
something solid about the suit or at
least how to achieve that solidness the
four of Wands is called the Lord of
perfected work something has been
accomplished here and you see that
people are celebrating they're rushing
out having a wonderful time and the
whole background shows that it is
infused with spirit there's a ritual
going on too so sometimes this card is
associated with the wedding
marriage but certainly it is completion
perfected work Venus in Aries and Venus
is the Empress in Aries is the Emperor
and they are a wedded pair but it also
lets us know that you cannot perfect
your work or complete your work without
love tact and gentleness when this card
is on the higher polarity it is
completion rest after labor celebration
of a higher truth in form which is what
a ritual is and tangible achievements
turn this cart around and you notice
that the lovely bower becomes a hurdle
so it's filled with obstacles it's a
cart of delays obstacles things that
don't go very well
self-centeredness and using egoistic
self-centered means to accomplish what
you want the four of cups the lord of
blended pleasure associated with the
moon in cancer emotions are the hardest
things to keep orderly and so this card
is really rather more advice than a
picture of something that is actually
ordered and stable already you see a
person sitting gazing discontentedly at
three cups on the ground and yet if he
would only turn his eyes upwards he
would see that a hand very much like the
hand in the ace of cups is offering the
cup of grace there is so much yearning
here the moon is at home in cancer and
it feels so much yearns for so much
yearning when it's turned towards
earthly pursuits earthly things to have
more money a better body the best
relationship whatever it is is not
necessarily going to bring you
contentment
but yearning when it's turn toward
spirit when it's yearn towards your own
ascension on the tree ascension in your
spiritual practice whatever that
practice may be that then becomes the
fuel that takes you upwards turn your
eyes in a different direction on a
higher polarity this card is that there
is a spiritual blessing close at hand
look for it don't miss it on a lower
polarity someone has missed the point
and as a result they feel disappointed
numb bored the four of swords Lord of
rest after strife Jupiter in Libra
Jupiter good fortune and Libra balance
what a lovely thing for the suit that
deals with the mind here we see a person
in repose many people think that it
maybe is a tomb but it's really not it's
a person in deep spiritual repose and
it's the repose of the entire mind
sometimes this card is called not just
rest from strife but rest in and through
strife if you notice in the upper corner
there's a stained glass window and if
you look carefully at it you'll see that
it is Christ giving someone a blessing
these pictures that you see in stained
glass windows in the cars always have
meanings they always tell us something
about the card this card is a blessing
in the higher polarity it represents
peace truth peace even in the midst of
strife convalescence and recovery from
sickness and solitude that is good for a
person and the lower polarity it's
enforced isolation no recovery from
illness at this time and finding so much
strife internally
that the outer events of life weigh on
you too heavily the four of Pentacles
is the Lord of earthly power it's the
Sun in Capricorn Capricorn is the sign
that rules the part in astrology of work
in your place in the world and this man
has earthly power
remember the Lord names are excellent
meanings for the cards this person holds
the pentacle as if it were a ship's
wheel he has total control over his
process this is a powerful man his feet
are firmly planted on the Pentacles when
you receive this card in a higher
polarity it is work power really knowing
how to manage the affairs on planet
earth on the lower polarity it may be
avarice of power misusing power too much
materiality just overdoing it and
wanting to control all people and things
on behalf of the skull of Oracle's it's
been a pleasure to be with you bye for
now
