“He has a form of the Crux ansata for his sceptre and a
globe in his left hand. He is a crowned monarch —
commanding, stately, seated on a throne, the arms of
which are fronted by rams’ heads. He is executive and
realization, the power of this world, here clothed with
the highest of natural attributes… Hereof is the lordship
of thought rather than of the animal world.” – Arthur
Edward Waite from The Pictorial Key to the Tarot

Number 4 Carries the energy
of the Masculine attributes:
Opening the point of support to a place of foundation, equanimity and force in a balanced state
The number 4 in the Tarot signifies practicality, hard work, anddetermination. It can sometimes point to delays in a course ofevents, but these are usually just temporary and can be workedthrough. The challenge with many fours can be a tendency towork towards goals that are perhaps not in one’s best long-terminterests. While you may eventually get what you want; thereis a good chance it won’t be how you want it.
Fours are all about the space and time needed for something togrow. If you plant a seed, for example, you have to tend to itand wait for the right time for it to blossom. No amount ofresistance or pushing etc. can make this process faster.
Four embodies a need for patience, wisdom and knowingexactly what you are working to manifest. Hard work anddiligence are important qualities of the 4.
