Four of Pentacles, Hidden Realm Tarot

Caring - not to fix or change anything, but because we want and maybe even feel a pressing need/calling to!

'Mama bear' comes to mind, though it's a badger on the card ,:)

"protective by nature and even more so now that she has something so precious to care for."

How much do we have the courage to care - how much does the recipient have the courage and capacity to receive?
Do we have the courage to give even if the latter is unknown or feel uncertain?
Do have the strength to be protective without slipping into becoming overprotective?
(trying to control, manage, prevent and create dependence)

Can we give without needing anything back?
Without 'strings attached' or hidden requirements of 'returns'?
Or will we sit in bitterness or resentment thinking 'after all I offered...' because we didn't get something in particular back in a couple of days, weeks, months?

A time to practice authentic caring, no matter how uncomfortable it feels (reversed)!
(and probably a time for the recipient to practice receiving this kind of unconditional and maybe intimate support/attention, hence the likelihood of us feeling/sensing a double discomfort/uncertainty/awkwardness/resistance ><))

All is right, #growth and #expansion is in the air!
