The Miser

This is a card about your relationship to your possessions, time, and money. This man has his pentacles, and no one’s taking them from him, no way, no how. A beautiful city beckons him from the background, but he is too dedicated to his earthly things to move.

Questioning Your Attachment

It’s good to be prudent with resources, but are you hoarding at your own expense? Does your attachment to your earthly goods prevent you from engaging in the experiences that make life great? It’s time to ask yourself why you are being so tightfisted. Maybe you’ve always been privileged, or maybe you know what scarcity feels like and you are terrified to go back. The only people who say money doesn’t matter are people who’ve always had it, right?

Dynamic Holding You Back

Regardless of the reason, this dynamic is holding you back. Your money and your things are meant to serve you, not hold you down. The Four of Pentacles may be a suggestion to loosen your hold and enjoy your life. If you are capable, use your resources to help others enjoy their lives as well.
