Four of Pentacles

Four of Pentacles

Power, security, and control

I hold what is mine. Nothing in, nothing out. Stability at any price.

"Mine." The Four of Pentacles is about possession and control. It offers stability, but often at the cost of stagnation. Do not turn your fortress into a prison.

Introduction

The Four of Pentacles is preservation of energy and resources. Its meaning is double edged: reliability and financial success on one side, stinginess, stagnation, and fear of risk on the other. This is the moment you say enough and build a fence around what you have.

SavingSecuritySelfishnessOwnership

Love and relationships

Jealousy and possessiveness. You belong to me. A partner as property or a guarantee of stability. A marriage of convenience or a very conservative union.

Career and work

Holding your position. Reluctance to share power or information. A steady paycheck in a bureaucratic structure.

Money and finances

Capital grows. Savings and deposits. Buying real estate. Fear of spending.

Spiritual path

Closed to new experience. Attachment to dogma. Spiritual constipation: hoarding knowledge without use.

Conclusion

The Four of Pentacles is a warning. Stability is good, but life is a current. Do not become a stagnant pond. Own things, but do not let things own you.

I am safe. I receive and release the gifts of the universe with ease and gratitude.
