4 of Pentacles Tarot Card: Today’s fortunes may be tomorrow’s clutter
Our things give us security. We like to hold onto things. Our minds tell us that things are important because they have served us well in the past. But how important are these things, really? The 4 of Pentacles within us tell us that everything we ever had is crucial to our well being In the past, these things enriched us, so we believe we will lose that enrichment if we let go. But how rational is that? That which we got from these things is now a part of us, and it cannot be taken away. Do the things itself still hold that power for us?
The things of the past have a way of becoming clutter in the future. If we cling to tightly and refuse to let go, there is less space for the new things we now need. So let go of what served you, but you have received and absorbed its benefit. Make room for the new. To declutter your physical space is to declutter your mind, for once you are no longer obsessing over what you have, you are much more free to accept new ideas. The 4 of Pentacles within you doesn’t like to feel crowded, so declutter and give it it’s space. — Jim Larsen
