Seven of Pentacles

Discontent

Description of the Illustration: A large evergreen stands set apart in a snow-covered forest at night. Someone has clearly been decorating the tree for the winter celebrations, as more than half has been decorated with lit candles, fruit, nuts, small wrapped presents, gold coins, and red roses; however, the bottom third of the tree is completely bare. In addition to the other decorations, seven pentacles adorn the tree. At the top of the tree in place of a star we find the planet Saturn, and at the base of the tree the old Holly King stares at his alarmingly empty bag of presents, depressed at his lack of resources to finish his goal of decorating the tree. A lone bull stands in the distance, shaking his great head sorrowfully at the King’s plight. A green sphere (Netzach) peeks over the bottom center edge of the card.
