Pentacles · Minor Arcana
A man and woman beneath an archway which gives entrance to a house and domain.
Three generations meet in an archway: an old man with two dogs, a couple, a child. Ten pentacles arrange themselves in the Tree of Life. This is what builds slowly — the long chain of care passed forward.
