Four of Pentacles

Gripping what you have.

Arcana: Minor Arcana
Suit: Pentacles
Element: Earth

Preservation
Control
Holding tight

Upright

The urge to protect stability is strong. Saving and restraint are a strength, but grip too hard and you block the space for anything to come in. Check whether fear of loss is postponing an opportunity.

Reversed

Beginning to loosen the grip — or the opposite, losing control and leaking. Separate what to protect from what to let go.

Advice

Protect, but do not lock. What does not circulate does not grow.
