5. Four Tarot suits (Tarot deck): Represent four different aspects of life: wands (action and initiative), cups (emotions and love), swords (mind and intellect), and pentacles (wealth and health).
6. Four great rivers of Eden (Bible): According to the Bible, four rivers flow from Eden: Pishon, Gihon, Tigris, and Euphrates.
7. Four fundamental elements (Greek philosophy): Famous Greek philosophers like Empedocles claimed the world consists of four elements: earth, water, air, and fire.

A day and a year are divided into four parts, resembling 4-beat cycles.
1. Day:
• Morning: The start of the day, awakening of nature and people.
• Daytime: Period of activity, the most productive time of the day.
• Evening: Transitional period to rest, time to finish daily tasks.
• Night: Period of rest and recovery.
2. Seasons of the year:
• Spring: Period of awakening and renewal, nature comes alive.
• Summer: Warmth and peak activity of nature, height of fertility.
• Autumn: Transition to calmness, time of harvest.
• Winter: Period of rest and restoration of nature.
An interesting idea is to draw an analogy between parts of the day, seasons of the year, and four gods from various mythologies:
1. Morning — Spring — Perun (Slavic mythology):
Perun is the thunder god, symbolizing beginnings and power, like the spring awakening and morning when everything starts to come alive and gain strength.
