A penny earned is a penny saved
If this is the promise of retirement, forget about it. Work hard all your life and save and then you can do what? Something is a amiss in this Ten of Pentacles.

ReplyDeleteGotta love the cards.
You gave me this deck and I have had it out several times but it is really challenging me this week. And what is with that chained eagle? Limiting thoughts? You can go this far and no more? Those coins are like cheese in a rattrap. He is really trying to entice someone or something.
DeleteA great card to remind us stuff and wealth don't always equal contentment.
ReplyDeleteIt does not. I think that is what the pouch at his waist indicates. Like the Fool and her knapsack.
