The Ace of Pentacles shows a pedestal of stacked stones that sit in the midst of a lush green field of grass and weeds. An ornate, curlicued gold pentacle sits in a circle of twining vines with little white flowers, and this circle is atop the pedestal, stuck in a red clay pot of purple flowers. Little white flowers are in the surrounding grass, and there is a dark patch (a lake?) off to the side and behind the pedestal. Butterflies and mushrooms are around the stone pedestal. An iron gate encircles the...garden? and a woman dressed in a long dark gown stands at the open door of the gate. She looks back at the pedestal and pentacle. Trees grown within and without the gate. Ten birds are flying in the sky in an upward formation.
Is that a lake or just a depression in the grass? Does it make a difference?
What's up with the flowers?
Why is the woman standing and looking at the pentacle? Why does she seem to be leaving the gated area?
What is the significance of the mushrooms? Mushrooms grown in abundance where there is lots of moisture (lots of moisture leads to lusher grass).
This stone pedestal is the only one that is made of separate stones stacked atop each other; the others are pedestals hewn out of one large piece of rock. Stacking stones is indicative of the physical labor aspect of the pentacles?
