Four of Cups

Dish: Four-Fruit Soup, Grass Jelly, Green Bean Soup

On a light green table, a large bowl of Fujian Four-Fruit Soup sits in the center, the sweet syrup reflecting the colors of several ingredients—red beans, taro balls, and jelly interlacing. On the side are three bowls of toppings: black grass jelly, white grass jelly, and green bean soup. A hand reaches into the frame, palm out, making a clear gesture of refusal. These toppings are like things already possessed in life; the person is no longer satisfied but isn't ready to accept new feelings or opportunities.

UPRIGHT

Gift, indifference, complacency, good environment, stagnation.

REVERSED

Stagnation ends, turning from emotion to action, embracing opportunities, returning to the group.
