Mythology

Jason’s uncle tries to delay the inevitable day when he will have to return the kingdom to Jason by sending him on a heroic quest to prove his worthiness.

Representation of the Card in a Reading

In a reading, the Ace represents the inception of an idea. In the Two cards, developmental work is done, and in the Three cards, the fruits are reaped. The Four card represents the beginning of a new phase, laying the foundation and paving the way for the process. Consequently, the individual may feel restlessness and a sense of delay. While the Ace is initial and innocent, the Four represents an initiation with past memories. To evolve, one must undergo a process, change something within themselves, and deal with the obstructive factor. In this card, the obstruction is the desire to achieve a goal without appreciating the journey.
