PAMUYA
Being new to tarot I wanted to take the time to explore each card and hear all the different interpretations, and opinions on the cards. Each of us has our own special insights and experiences which we can share and help each other grow in our knowledge of tarot. At this time I read from the Rider/Waite/Smith deck, it would be very interesting to hear from you that work from other decks as well.
Please feel free to join me. I have started with the Minor Arcana, and worked my way through the different suits. I have decided not to write up the Major Arcana, these posts are not drawing much interest.
So here goes the last suit of the minor Arcana, the suit of Pentacles!
Ace of Pentacles
“I recognize the opportunity to materialize my ideas” Greer
When I look into the Ace of Pentacles I see a hand coming from a cloud offering a pentacle, not a promise of fortune but a change, a sign that things are within your reach. This can be a sign of good fortune, an unexpected inheritance, or a gift of a wedding ring, a proposal of marriage. Love is something that must be grown and taken care of.
This is a suit that tells us that work needs to be done, not a time to dream but a time to get your hands dirty. Slow and steady will win the race, let your common sense guide you to success.
Aces are energy, power cards, and new beginnings. This energy is static; you must take action, take advantage of it. When reversed this energy can become a compulsion. An example as in pentacles “greed or gambling. “
In the back ground of this card there is an arch way(portal) that leads to the distant mountains. Letting us know that we can still fulfill our spiritual peace while working for our material needs.
Direct: New job, gift, proposal, love offered, material gain, pleasure.
Reversed: No or delayed money/love, greed, prosperity without happiness, fool’s gold, withholding favors, fear of loss, job that failed.
