Four of Pentacles

The Fool journeys now to the Four of Pentacles, and vulnerability makes The Fool hold on tightly to what is his. This may make him secure as he suffers no losses, yet he cannot grow, so he enters a time of being static. He opts for security and safety and pushes away any chance for movement. His control may make him feel confident, but it is a sign of insecurity. Risks are avoided, and he closes himself off from others who may tempt or push for change.

Here we may find security but also no change, so we can find ourselves stuck with the status quo as we opt for balance and avoid risk.

A need within us for security can make us stubborn and unyielding, and we can create barriers between ourselves and others and hold on to what we have, financial or otherwise. We hold on to what we have so we cannot lose it or have it challenged; we either cannot afford to lose anything or fear doing so, and we try as best we can to not tip the balance, just in case ...

There is security, yet we can be overly cautious and be stuck with little to no progress as new ideas fail to flow, leaving us with no new insights. If you’re wishing for change, none will be found right now.

Changes are seen as risks and avoided, which can be a good thing or equally a bad thing. Change is seen as a threat, and we can find that we avoid change at all costs in whatever area of our lives we find to be static, which is causing cobwebs to form. Money, love, and all manner of things are being viewed cautiously and held onto either due to poverty, real or imagined, or a fear of it, or greed.

Security is stationary, and you're stuck between gain and loss. Look at why.

I just got a reading done by Pam. The reading was very accurate and gave me a lot of insight into my situation. I'm very grateful for her intuitive abilities and would definitely get another reading from her in the future.

My book arrived this week. Yes!
The Universal Waite Tarot deck shows Pamela Coleman Smith’s artwork recoloured by Mary Hanson Roberts. The line-art is clean with non-blurry lines and beautifully coloured, of course.

I am house-sitting for my son for two weeks so decided to also buy the ebook from Amazon Kindle. I’ll leave the hardcopy at home so it doesn’t weigh-down my suitcase. It’s a 427 page book, so very thick!
I’ve only read the introduction and The Fool so far. What I like so far, is the way the Fool’s meaning is described in detail, referring to colour, symbols, and zodiac and astrological associations. All important details for me to remember and learn. There is a lot to learn, to enjoy and to gradually remember. I say gradually, as it’s not about memorising but savouring the details. This is not a book with keywords, although there is a “In a nutshell” summation at the end of each long description for the card. The long description (often three pages in length) is followed by two shorter ones (less than one page long) for upright and reversed meanings. In these shorter sections, keywords are in bold-type. It’s far easier to remember them when they’re given in a story-like context rather than as a separate list to memorise.

I can see myself using this book as my primary resource for years!
This began as sharing a photo and ended up as a short review for those who have not yet bought Pam’s book.

My advice is to not hesitate.
