The Four of Pentacles is the card guiding us through the week of
November 18 to 24 2019.

Security and stability are very important at this time, as well as boundaries.

Check your finances.
Do you have debts? Can you handle it?

How reliable is your income?

Do you have enough savings to support you through rainy days?

Pay of some of your debts if you can.

Cut expenses where possible.

Increment your savings.

If you invest your money, favour low to moderate risk .

Christmas is around the corner and you may be tempted to buy extravagant gifts or be more generous than usual.
Balance your book first, so that you will know how much you can afford to spend.

An other aspect of the Four of Pentacles is physical and material security.

Check your home and your car and take care of any maintenance work required, including possible improvement to the security system.

Last, but not least, the peculiar position of the guy in the card of the deck I am using, reminds me of a spider.
After consulting my trusted copy of Animal Speak by Ted Andrews, a few concepts grab my attention.

1)The difficulty and importance to keep balance while we shift from one chapter of our lives to another.

2) The necessity to value both the spiritual and the material.

Reading between the lines, I get the suggestion to walk carefully and with focus.

This is important to me, since it has been a week since I fell walking my dog. The city has yet to clean up the roads or sidewalks in my area and I have found walking very stressful ever since. Today, a fresh coat of snow hides the ice below.
My dog still needs her walks, but I need to be very careful.

Have a great week!

Hi everyone.

This week we have the eight of Pentacles guiding us through November 11 to 17 2019.

As I look at the card I notice the dog, which to me suggests trust, loyalty and domesticity.

The squirrel also gets my attention, reminding me of its habit to prepare for Winter by storing nuts well ahead of time.

I see the guy working in the rain to put a roof over the animals and the coins.

This week keep up the good effort at work or school.
Your industry is paying off. Persevere and you will be able to relax soon enough.

Be prudent with your spending.
Save toward big ticket items, or put money aside for rainy days.

Protect those you love and give a helping hand to those in need.

Should you be the one on the receiving end, accept the help gracefully. Be grateful and pay it forward when you can.

Take care of home and business.
Pay attention to details, keep up with regular maintenance and upgrades.

If you are feeling tired because you have worked long and hard on a project, don’t lose your motivation, you are almost there.

For those who are looking for a job, or studying or training for one, put out your best effort. Show your work ethic and any talent or experience you may bring to the table.
