Queen of Pentacles

In our today's blog entry I will talk about a card of the Pentacles minor arcana - namely: The Queen of Pentacles.
As we live our worldly lives - we begin to understand how much being independent is important. It's not only about a stable income but also about the nurturing the ones we love and our household. Finding the balance between the necessity of earning money and looking after ourselves and the loved ones often proves to be very tricky but it's achievable through certain mindset.
This mindset is the belief that we are always abundant and secure to create a peaceful life for ourselves and the ones we provide for. It's about being resourceful and practical in achieving it.
The Queen of Pentacles works on the energy of request. It asks you in finding resources within you or around you to bring the critical situation towards the state of stability.

It's reversed meaning reveals how much consumed you have become in a pursuit of money. It's a request given to you. To re-balance your life and trying to come back to the natural state of prosperity that you can give both to yourself and the loved ones.
Making choices is very important at times when it seems you cannot handle and tackle the situation given by yourself.
The reversed meaning is also about a certain stance towards others. At times it's important to make people understand that they need to be made accountable for what they do and although we try to look after them and use this motherly energy to protect them against their own mistakes - it's not necessarily the best solution. We should encourage them to learn from their own mistakes and experiences
Queen of the Pentacles is an invitation to find the refuge in balance and prosperity. The natural and practical wisdom which keeps us grounded and balanced in this earthly realm we live. Let's make the best of it.
