Cards combination description

Low arcan Seven of Swords and low arcan Two of Pentacles and low arcan Four of Pentacles combination - may be a careful or savvy investor, taking care to hold onto what you have to make it last.

Card 1 - Seven of Swords

In the Seven of Swords card, there is a man that is seen running away sneakily from a camp of some sort, while carrying five swords in his hands. Behind him, two other swords are on standing on the ground. From this image, we can deduce that the Seven of Swords is about stealth, getting away with something, deception or betrayal.  The expression on the man s face shows quite a bit of confidence, and he seems to be sure of his success on this mission of stealing the swords. Unfortunately for him though, on the left there seems to be a group of soldiers who have discovered the theft and one soldier is actually raising a flag or a weapon as if to signal his pursuit.

Associations:

Similar or supporting cards:
Strength and Temperance (the diplomatic aspect of such) the caution of the Four of Pentacles, in a positive aspect.

Opposing or contradictory cards:
nbsp; To some degree, The Chariot and The Emperor indicate a more forthright or open approach. 

Seven of Swords combinations
Due to the nature of the Seven of Swords it comes in very useful for highlighting those areas that require a softly-softly approach. In simple lines, pay particular attention to what precedes and follows to see what needs to be handled with care and what the outcome would be.

Card 2 - Two of Pentacles

The Two of Pentacles card depicts a man who is dancing as he is juggling two large coins. The pentacles are surrounded by the infinity sign that denotes that the person can handle all the issues the come his way and he can manage his life with grace. In the background, you will notice that there are two ships that are riding the giant waves, and they reinforce the balancing act that the man has to face - he is in rough and choppy waters, but manages to stay afloat. The Two of Pentacles depicts the usual ups and downs that occur in one s life. Despite all the chaos that surrounds him, the man lives a very carefree life as he dances, and handles all that comes to him with joy.

Associations:

Similar or supporting cards:
Temperance (maintaining balance) The Magician (dexterity and skill) Seven of Cups (can also show multiples)

Opposing or contradictory cards:
 Two of Swords (deadlock)

Two of Pentacles combinations
In combinations look to the surrounding cards to see what is being balanced or multiplied. If followed by a negative card, such as Ten of Swords, Death, Five of Cups, etc, balance will be lost and effort to no avail.

Card 3 - Four of Pentacles

This card depicts a man who is sitting on a stool, who is holding onto two pentacles in a very defensive and tight posture. It s almost as if he is hoarding them out of fear of loss. One pentacle is balanced precariously on his head, while another one is tightly clutched between his own hands, and there are two of them which are securely placed underneath his feet. He is making sure that there is absolutely no one touching his coins. At the same time, he is also unable to move because he is holding the coins so tightly. In other words, he is restrained from acting because he is holding too tight to his possessions. To some, money does not always bring freedom.

Associations:

Similar or supporting cards:
Two of Swords (stalemate) Hanging Man (non-movement) The Hermit (prudent) Temperance (moderation)  

Opposing or contradictory cards:
Six of Pentacles (sharing) The Fool (carefree)

Four of Pentacles combinations
Check surrounding cards to find the context of what creates the reason of the Four, but as a root card (start of a chain) check to see what follows to release it or the progression. As always, there are many possibilities…
