Knight of Pentacles


Work and goals create a special kind of set up which can be an outlet for us to shape a plan or strategy to use the first and reach the latter.
Knight of Pentacles reminds us getting there not by the means of speed but by the means of hard work, routine, perseverance, even some a hint of obstinacy. If you are a person who can plan naturally and know the best course of action then it will be easier to achieve the goals using those tools.
Being meticulous and planning even tiniest details can enhance achieving what we yearn for.
It ia also accepting responsibility without any grudges or complaints. After all this is what you have signed for. It may not be exciting but definitely something that can work.
This  card encourages you to steer away from daydreaming - instead creating a plan that will work.
You may also feel stuck in a position that you don't necessarily like. There is not much to do here but just endure. You may also be stuck in a rut a little bit - maybe a bit of fresh air can help - metaphorically speaking - let yourself open to new ways or trying something new.
There is a warning here - you may have become a perfectionist to the point of being increasingly critical towards others, especially in your work environment. Be careful not too hurt other people's feelings - they put a lot of work into what they do. Try to notice that and respect that.

Page of Pentacles

Our life path is all about manifestations.
We tend to meander from one to the other - planing to use those we have reached to steer us to the next one.
Manifestations can be varied in nature. We can receive gifts of material nature from the Universe. It can be related to our accumulated wealth, career, anything to do with material status and finally our health condition.
We may be dismaed by the potential outcome but in the course of things what really matters is the inspiration, the way we can induce and drive our energy towards achieving certain goals - in other words - it's us who are resonsible for the shape and the contents of the manifestation.
Page of Pentacles is a premise of something quite successful - it encourages us to spread the wings and open ourselves to something we give shape.
On the other hand - we might have all the useful tools and we are on a brink of intiiating something new but we seem not to be entirely ready to open this chapter. It may be the awareness of being not entirely practical or we simply need to step down for a while in order to find more ways to embellish our vision - to see everything as clearly as possible.
The final point is learning from our past mistakes. Things that we have already experienced - teach us the best - because we know that these were meant for us - to use them in building our strength and wisdom.

Ten of Pentacles


When we are at the stage of achieving the goal we have strived for and tried to reach for quite a while, we often ask ourselves all sorts of questions:
- What is out there to be achieved?
- Can I achieve anything more?
- Is that what we have achieved is enough?
- Are the resources I have gained, an excuse to splurge?
There is probably less to worry if we are actually asking ourselves those questions. Problems starts when in our self-righteousness we are set in a mind position where questioning yourself is not an option - especially one issue.
The issue, I mean, is the wealth being a trap. We have forgotten that wealth should be thought of as a byproduct of abundance rather than the actual goal. We forgot about this as we knew what are financial setbacks means, what are the periods without a proper income and financial instability. We mistake our feeling of self-worth with an actual feeling of balance. And all this is surrounded by the fact that there is wealth to be achieved.
There are always some sort of drawbacks that are yet to be revealed. Our marriage or relationship ceased to be a true partnership, our bussines might not be on the right track, our job security might be at risk. All these problems can stem from the fact that we are not with ourselves. We might also lose the feeling of being reassured what is our actual goal in life, which very easily can be turned into certain sort of monetization. Our heart's yearning take a back seat here. Money is becoming the goal itself.
We lose the connection with ourselves, being deluded by an idea of success while the real success is being not only in balance with ourselves but understanding the reasons behind our behavioural patterns. This is obviously quite a big challenge when we take the path of just plodding along.

Nine of Pentacles


The time has come to reap the fruit of your hard work. Can you really feel it and believe it? I sense that it's not the case. Why so?
In the world of myth where there is a permanent lack of things and resources we rarely believe in things like harvesting what we have nurtured and worked on very hard. The idea of the process and development is quite often broken by the fact that we are assured everywhere that we are "not there yet"
But how about taking a bit different stance?
You deserved success, you have built quite a strong foundation of your work? Time to acknowledge it and feel this accomplishment as your own work.
By smart steps we can create our own financial independence. Abundance that is like a well - it helps us to look after ourselves in a sustainable way. And the first and most important step towards it is starting to feel you are in harmony with the world around you. The mindful resonance with your surrounding and the decision that is being made by choosing what not only suits you but feeds you is important.
There are lots of obstacles in the course of this action. First and foremost - your sense of value and self-worth. Investing in yourself starting with things you would normally take as treats - clothes, good food, can be a good guide.
You may also be working very hard but not let yourself feel the effect of it. The gratitude for that what we have achieved can be directed towards those who helped us but also towards the oneself.
Our needs can also be misguided. Do we really need all what we pursue? What in us begs to buy those things?
Ponder for a moment...
