Four of Scarabs

The Four of Scarabs presents a man sitting outside the city walls, hoarding his golden scarabs tightly in his arms and guarding a fourth scarab on the wall above his head. While jealously guarding his material possessions, he has made himself immobile – he cannot stand up without dropping his scarabs. Further, he cannot leave or the fourth scarab will be unguarded.

Themes

The theme of the Four of Scarabs card is greed. Be warned: materialism and over-possessiveness can lead to immobility and isolation.
