Oh yes. You read that right. Cards. Let’s make this more interesting. It is time to understand better the relationships between cards. My thinking is to do two cards instead of one. The first card is the situation, significant event. The second card is clarification, reason, cause. Actually, it maybe easier with two cards than with just one.
Four of Pentacles Reversed, Queen of Swords
Four of Pentacles Reversed is interesting because what I get from it is very different than how others describe it. So M, you will have to let me know if you think it means something in particular. Four of Pentacles shows a wealthy man holding on to his fortune tightly. He surrounds himself with thick walls for protection. But those walls also separate him from the world outside. And the world outside is a bright and cheerful place. He doesn’t see that. He doesn’t see that his world is within is quite gray. In reversed I think it is of a letting go of the tight control of one’s fortune. Being less of a miser.
Queen of Swords is a woman that values logic over emotion. She has been through enough to know what is needed to be done. And she is ready to go to war to make things right if she has to. She represents transformation. A better day ahead after the storms.
This pair may indicate a need to spend money. It may feel uneasy letting go. But it will actually pave the way for a better future. This is a logical decision to move beyond what’s even more stressful. Maybe even going against one’s nature.
I actually started this reading earlier, but couldn’t finish before heading out to a Christmas gathering.
