We study the dynamics in the neighborhood of fixed points in a 4D symplectic map by means of the color and rotation method. We compare the results with the corresponding cases encountered in galactic type potentials and we find that they are in good agreement. The fact that the 4D phase space close to fixed points is similar to the 4D representations of the surfaces of section close to periodic orbits, indicates an archetypical 4D pattern for each kind of (in)stability, not only in 3D autonomous Hamiltonian systems with galactic type potentials but for a larger class of dynamical systems. This pattern is successfully visualized with the method we use in the paper.
