Four of Cupsfor Sagittarius
"Contemplation isn't the question. What you do next is."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
After the joyful party of the three of cups, the four of cups is about living in the past and refusing to move onto a new adventure. This card is about boredom and apathy, but fear not! Boredom is a kind of rest that can lead to new ideas!
Your past is holding you back from seeing the obvious path ahead (e.g stop thinking about how great your ex is, because there's a new person on the horizon if you would look up to see them). Perhaps you are feeling restless at your job or with your relationship, pay attention to that energy as it can motivate you to take a big (and scary) step to make a change!
You are unwilling to take action and it's making you miserable. You are obsessing about something (maybe a past love, maybe a future you thought you were heading toward)-- and it's keeping you stuck. Practice letting your thoughts flow instead of holding onto them so tightly

Four of Cups for Sagittarius
The Seeker
Sagittarius is a Fire mutable sign ruled by Jupiter, whose natural subject is meaning, travel, belief, the long view, higher study. Cups are the water suit, so the Four of Cups sits in Cancer. Cancer and Sagittarius are quincunx, two signs with nothing in common: no shared element, mode, or polarity. This card will not slot neatly into how Sagittarius already operates. What it wants is this: say the feeling to the person it is about. It has to be done deliberately or it will not happen. Sagittarius is mutable: it adapts, and this card is in the middle, where adapting can quietly become avoiding. The card asks for feeling where the sign is built to do something about it instead. Upright, the structure is holding. Holding is not the same as being right.
