Complete Book of Tarot: Card 6, the near future, was the Four of Pentacles, showing someone holding tightly to money and resources. Perhaps in the near future he would need to be saving his money for the purpose indicated by card 1.

Reversed Cards: When the Four of Pentacles shows up in the blocked aspect, it might be safe to say that you are allowing your paranoia to get the better of you. There is a miserly element to this card even in its upright position, but here in the blocked aspect you have allowed your fear to become ruler of your domain. Nothing good can come of that. There is no doubt that being prudent at times shows wisdom. But living such a short life as a miser will only bring you misery and heartache. Blocking the flow of your resources will stagnate and poison you mentally, spiritually, and physically.
