The meaning of the cards will depend on what kind of reading you are doing and the question you asked the deck. This is a guide covering the general meanings of the cards and how they relate to each other.

Common 2-card spreads

Whilst it’s great to know who these two cards interact with each other, it’s important to note that the meaning will depend on the context of your spread

The most common 2 card spreads I recommend to newer readers are:

  • The 2 card cross (otherwise known as “The Fool’s Journey”)
  • The 2 card “Yes or No”

“The Fool’s Journey”

Setup: The two card cross is where you place two cards face up, one placed vertically and with one laying horizontally over

Interpretation: The 2 cards represent a “situation” and a “challenge”. The first card will describe the situation you are in with the second horizontal card being the “challenge” crossing you (literally crossing you in this case!)

Reading: Using the overviews in this guide is a great way to start. First, look at the meanings of the 2 cards, and see how they might relate either as your “situation” or “challenge”. Once you have that you can look at the general overview for how the two cards interact with each other.

The benefit of this spread is that it can give clarity when you’re feeling uncertain or anxious. Once you have clarity of thought, and a strong idea of what your challenge is you can find solutions to help your situation

The 2 card “Yes or No”

Setup: The 2 card “Yes or No” is where you place two cards face up side by side, whilst asking your deck a “yes or no” question.

Interpretation: Each card in a tarot deck has a “yes” or a “no” meaning. Look at the meanings of each card, and you will have your answer.

The benefit of this is you get a stronger yes or no compared to a single card draw. You may find you often get a mix of “yes or no”, and this is fine. It simply means there is doubt, or things are not yet clear.

Yes or No meaning

Things are a bit tricky for this combination, as 7 Of Wands and 4 Of Cups mean different things. The cards are unsure about your question, or the answer to the question has not yet been decided.

The “Yes” and “No” meanings can differ from reader to reader. The meanings here are based on what I believe are the generally accepted definitions.

What does 7 Of Wands mean?

The 7 of Wands Tarot card signifies self-defense and protection against competition in all aspects of life, including health, finances and relationships. In terms of health, the card encourages us to look after ourselves and keep our bodies and minds safe from illness, stress and conflict. This can mean a focus on eating well, exercising regularly, taking effective supplements and getting regular check-ups. It can also mean keeping an eye out for our mental health, monitoring our own and others’ stress levels, and guarding our emotions and beliefs.

In terms of finances, the 7 of Wands Tarot card encourages us to be proactive in protecting our money and our financial future. This can mean setting and sticking to a budget, ensuring we have enough savings and investments, identifying areas of wasteful spending and taking steps to protect our credit. This can also mean making sure our insurance policies are up to date and our retirement plans are on track. Additionally, the 7 of Wands can encourage us to take a proactive role in protecting our jobs and careers, as well as our businesses if we are self-employed.

The 7 of Wands Tarot card can also serve as a reminder for us to be vigilant in our personal relationships, to ensure that we are being treated fairly and with respect. If a situation is competitive, then the card can encourage us to speak up for ourselves and advocate for our own rights and needs. This can also mean taking a step back from toxic relationships and unhelpful behavior by others. Ultimately, the 7 of Wands Tarot card encourages us to use our power to protect ourselves and our rights, so we are able to make the most out of our health, finances and relationships.

What does 4 Of Cups mean?

Health

When it comes to health, the 4 of Cups tarot card indicates a period of stagnation and unfulfillment. You may feel unmotivated to take care of your health, whether it be through physical activity, getting enough rest, or following a healthy diet. You may be in routine and find it difficult to make any changes, even if those changes would bring positive results. Alternatively, you might be dealing with a health issue that is not completely resolved and can’t seem to make any progress towards a full recovery. On a more positive note, the 4 of Cups can also indicate surprise gifts such as a surprise health check-up or an unexpected breakthrough.

Finances

When it comes to finances, the 4 of Cups tarot card indicates stagnation, unfulfillment, and a lack of motivation. You may be feeling frustrated that your financial situation is not improving and find it difficult to come up with new ideas to make a change. Alternatively, your financial situation may be stable but you’re unfulfilled with your current financial situation and are unsure how to move forward. You may be feeling complacent and unwilling to take a risk to make a potential gain. On the other hand, the 4 of Cups can also indicate surprise gifts of financial windfalls or unexpected bonuses.

Relationships

When it comes to relationships, the 4 of Cups tarot card indicates a period of boredom and feeling unfulfilled. You may be struggling with a relationship that is stuck in a routine or stuck in a rut. You may be feeling disconnected from your partner and struggling to spark up the flame of romance or passion in your relationship. Alternatively, you may be having difficulty expressing yourself and conveying your emotions to your partner. On a more positive note, the 4 of Cups can also indicate surprise gifts such as a spontaneous romantic gesture or an unexpected gift.

Conclusion

Understanding how the meaning of a reading changes once you start involving more than one card can be tricky. This will come with time and practice, however I hope this guide on what your cards might be telling you when you draw 7 Of Wands and 4 Of Cups has helped you.
