Four of Pentacles

The image · A figure clutches one coin to his chest, balances one on his head and stands on two.

Upright

  • security
  • saving
  • control
  • holding on

You're guarding what you have: money, position, security. Stability is good — but holding on this tight, can your hands catch anything new?

Reversed

  • greed
  • letting go
  • loosening finances

Reversed, you're loosening your grip, willing to spend and share; or spending is getting out of hand.

Love

In love, a strong need for security, possessiveness; reversed, a little more trust, a little less control.

Work

At work, steady and conservative; reversed, some investment is needed for new growth.

Yes or no?

Upright · Not yet clearHolding on is good, but gripping too tight means missing out.

Reversed · Not yet clearYou're learning to let go — decide what to release.

Yes / No is only this card's leaning — the decision is yours.

How they feel

They want to hold on to you securely — maybe a little possessively.

As advice

Look at what you're gripping hardest, and loosen your hold a little.

Ask yourself

Is what you're holding tightest protecting you — or trapping you?
