Four of Pentacles
The Four of Pentacles represents finding your way through complex situations and obstacles, much like Theseus following Ariadne's thread out of the labyrinth after defeating the Minotaur. This card symbolizes guidance, perseverance, and the journey through difficult circumstances toward freedom and resolution. It suggests that even in the most confusing or dangerous situations, there is always a path forward if you follow the right guidance. The bloodied state of Theseus indicates that victory and escape often come at a cost, requiring sacrifice and determination.

Visual Description
A bare‑backed man in a short tunic walks away down a narrow stone passage between tall masonry walls, seen from behind. He carries a rolled scroll in his right hand and has a strap and sheathed weapon slung across his back. In the foreground lies a severed bull’s head with blood pooled around it and a human hand nearby on the ground. The scene is set within a decorative gold border and the title 'PENTACLES' appears at the top of the card.
