Two cards

The Moon Tarot Card Meaning

The Moon is a very emotional and intuitive card.

Often it has to do with one’s mental state indicating sleep disturbances due to nightmares, waking terrors, or emotional negativity. It calls to light your deepest and darkest desires. When the Moon is present it is a time to be aware of how your physical health is being affected by your mental health. It can also represent being very aware to almost a hyper vigilant state, being over sensitive, and madness. Remember that fits of madness also often lend themselves to time of genius inspiration and if you are feeling exceptionally out of sorts that all of your pent up energy can be used for the greater good of your life. When you see the Moon know that right now things are not entirely okay in your life, but that is alright. Everything cannot always be perfect. The key to our own perfection lies in accepting our imperfections.

Remember that right now you are not alone. You may be in a seemingly hopeless situation and struck by panic, anxiety, or fear about an outcome. The goddess Isis rules over the Moon card and she is a mother and a guide. Having loss of hope does not mean that all is lost. Allow the mother energies of the moon to guide you and seek her guidance before making decisions. This can be done by prayer, seeking counsel professionally, or asking for support when needed.

All of the symbology of the card speaks a lot about the contemplation and meditative states in your life right now. A full moon looks down over a river with two dogs. The face of the Moon has been widely interpreted to be that she is frowning, judging, or in some way unhappy. The river and all water for that matter when it comes to tarot, is a spiritual indicator. The water is moving at an increased speed, just as your thoughts likely are right now. Usually it will represent some sort of quandary in your life where you are continuously running thoughts through your head and there is no silence. You need to allow your mind to wander at this time to get to the root of your problem.

Ponder whether you are making healthy choices for yourself at this time and pay close attention to mental exhaustion. You are likely to find that you have been driving those around you a little crazy with erratic behavior or being flaky. It is likely that you are going through something deep right now but be sure not to alienate those around you that truly love and care for you. Try to avoid asking questions of others intentions right now and work on accepting things for face value. While it is possible that someone around you is being deceptive, the Moon says that the truth will come out and your own suspicion will do nothing more than make the problem worse.

The Moon in Love

When you see the Moon in your love reading it is often a time of emotional turmoil. In dating and romance it is a time of bickering and deception. The Moon often tells you to ask questions in your relationship or to look for areas in which you are being duped. If you find that you are being swept off of your feet right now, it may be a good time to hold back and try to slow things down. During this time developing new relationships or furthering a current relationship too quickly will often burn out.

You want to watch what you say in relationships of all kind at this time. It is a time where miscommunications can run rampant and you may find that you regret opening up too much or saying something that you shouldn’t have. Be mindful of feelings and try not to offend. In the case of a new relationship it’s the Moon is a good reminder that you only get one chance to make a first impression. The energy behind the Moon is strong and wild. Like the tides you may feel that emotionally you are being pulled in many directions and unable to settle down. Realize that all things come in due time and that right now you are on a natural cycle. Wait for things to calm down in your love life before making a decision.

The Moon in Health

Often the Moon can indicate issues with mental health. For people that are diagnosed with mental issues such as depression, bipolar, or the like, the Moon is a reminder to keep taking your medication. Often lunar energies will interfere with one’s own mental state. Now is a time to take stock of the areas that are causing you undue emotional or spiritual pressure. Take a step back from these areas and allow things to calm down. Any disorder that is exacerbated by stress can flare up at this time. It’s especially important to be diligent about taking care of your own needs before extending yourself to others at this time. If you find that there are people around you that are more trouble than they are worth, creating needless drama, or generally having an unhealthy effect on you need to be cut away at this time. You have to take care of yourself before you can care for anyone else.

The Moon in Work and Wealth

Be frugal and keep your wallet close to your right now. Often the Moon will represent someone trying to swindle you or holding back on facts just so that you will make an uninformed decision. With the Moon present you have to be on your guard because you never know who or what is lurking in the night. This period of time is not going to last forever, but right now it is better safe than sorry.

In some rare exceptions the Moon will indicate a crazy idea that is too good to pass up. Often the card will reflect being over cautious or fearful in a situation. Because it is rare but can happen you may want to try to meet halfway. Do not be overzealous in your spending or investing in this time but be mindful that there is also a stroke of genius around you at this time. Pay close attention to what your instincts tell you rather than those around you. Even friends or family that mean well in their advice at this time can be misled. Be a leader, not a follower. Make your own decisions free of the guidance of others.

If you are one who is looking for work at this time, it may not be the best time for new ventures. You will have to be exceptionally mindful of the jobs that you apply for or interview with to make sure that you are entering into a good business contract. Do not be misguided in your search for work and be sure that you are seeking employment in areas that are going to make you truly happy. You don’t need another dead-end job at this time; you need to be seeking a career.

Reversed Moon in a reading

The Moon card in the reversed position will indicate secrets coming to light, stability in mental health being restored, and show an enlightenment happening on your path. It can also indicate that you are in a need for rest. The Moon has chaotic energy that can be harnessed but in the reversed position with all of the symbolism of the card has no place. The need for introspection, meditation, and quiet is still there but there is no outlet for it. You may find that you are being run ragged and that while you need a break there is not the time or a way to break free and get much needed time to yourself. Chaos is ruling your life and eventually, if you keep at this same pace in your life you will crash and burn. Take charge of what avenues that you can and strengthen your resolve to finish with commitments at this time. Do not take on more until you are able to find time for yourself.

The Ace of Pentacles Tarot Card Meaning

The Ace of Pentacles is filled with grounding and solid energy.

Around the Ace of any card is the unadulterated source of the power of the suit. With the pentacles, the energy is that of the earth and grounded energy. It can indicate that you are in an area in your life right now that you need a grounding focus in your life. With the card in your reading, you can be sure that there are creative energies around you that will aid you with material or earthly gains. The Pentacles is a great card regarding issues such as health and finances usually but can indicate troubles in other areas. Because the energy is quite strong with the Ace card, it can be a time of intense energies that are hard to manage or focus on.

Humans are innately tied to the Earth as we live within it, walk upon it, take our food and water from it, and depend on it for sustenance. Often it is something that is taken for granted and not reflected upon. Take a moment and see all of the ways in which the flows of the Earthly energies affect you. The times in which you feel grounded and those in which you are almost pulled down and sluggish even have a different relation to the Earth.

With the Ace of Pentacles card, the pentacle is being handed by an invisible hand. It’s almost as it is a reminder that this is a gift that is given to you and as one part of four Aces that make a whole. With the Ace of Pentacles, the gift is that of solid intelligence holding you firmly in place. It can be a strong motivator or a hindrance and you must pay special attention as to how you use the energy.

You must remember when seeing the Ace of anything in your reading that the energy is coming to you or around you in its pure form. As an intuitive and aware human being, it is up to you to be responsible for directing the energy accordingly. You can use the other cards in your reading to take a clue of what direction to use the energy with as well. For example, if you see multiple Ace cards in your readings, know that this is an important time for you in your life. The cards can also be compounded and in the case of the Ace of Pentacles, if you see a plethora of other pentacle cards then you will understand that the focus of your reading (and perhaps the focal points of issues in your life) is grounding and earthy issues.

A word of warning regarding this card is that there can be too much of a great thing. The steadfast footing that you are experiencing or have built-in aspects of your life can help to ensure a successful step towards your future but it can also plant you in place.

Too much Earthy energy can cause your life to become unbalanced. A person for example that is too entrenched in the earth (like when you have a lot of pentacles cards in your reading) can also indicate a person that is stuck in the mud. Earth can squelch out fiery motivation or passion and cause air and water energies to stagnate.  You must be careful to balance out the energies in your life and to not allow one area to overpower the other. You will know right away when the card comes up if this is an issue or a well-wishing for you in your reading and you must act on it accordingly.

The Ace of Pentacles is also a card of results. Often the Ace of Pentacles will come up in a reading when you need to be reminded of your own roots and to firmly plant yourself back on your path in order to see your result realized as you desire. Even though it is a beginning card in the story as all Aces are, it is also a good card to remind yourself what you are ultimately attaining. Like a house that is built out of design and action, the Ace of Pentacles tells you to focus on what you want the end result to be. It is the finished house made of all of the other elements. This may be a good time to set down a schedule, to keep you on track, and build the foundation as well. The beginning is the end is the beginning. You are building your path one brick at a time.

Ace of Pentacles in Love

The Ace of Pentacles in love can be a good sign regarding stability in a relationship showing that where you are now is where you need to be.

It also is a representation of healthy independence within the relationship as you have room for your own goals and there is a sense of security within the boundaries of you and your partner for you to be yourself. The Ace of Pentacles sort of sets the stage for the next act of your relationship and it is an excellent sign for moving forward.

In regards to new love, the Ace of Pentacles will indicate good tidings coming your way in love. Usually, it is indicative of a stable and grounding relationship headed your way, one in which you can build from as an addition rather than a distraction to your life. It may be a good time to focus on the workplace, as the relationship will usually stem from work, school, or some area of finance in some way.

Ace of Pentacles in Health

Regarding health, the Ace of Pentacles is one of the best cards to see. Often indicative of excellent health it is a great card about health and wellness in general. It can be a sign that health is going to be taking a turn for the better in regards to illnesses that already exist.

It can also be a good time to consider finding a stable position within a job. The card doesn’t say to switch jobs, but it can tell you to take a new opportunity to arise.

You will come to a point in your relationship where you rekindle the reason why you fell in love in the love in the first place. Giving your relationship a fresh new chance could allow you and your partner to feel more security and stability with each other. This sense of security is a vital foundation for a solid relationship.

The Ace Of Pentacles in the Reversed Position

With the Ace of Pentacles shows that the energy of the Earth is around you, however, it is much more indicative of the negative aspects of the energy such as laziness, sluggishness, or a lack of motivation. When this card comes up in the reversed position it is a good sign that you need to work on balancing the energies in your life to bring out the good of the Ace of Pentacles. Consider ways in which you are being too stubborn or lacking flexibility and do your best to change them.

The Ace of Pentacles Reversed - Love and Romance

When it comes to love and romance, the Ace of Pentacles reversed can mean that your actions and decisions can do harm to your relationship. Often this serves as a warning to evaluate your actions by asking yourself, “Are you giving too much and not getting enough in return?” This could indicate an imbalance in your relationship, where one is always giving and the other is always taking; thereby creating insecurity and instability. It would be helpful if you figure out what things stand between you and your partner - greed, dishonesty, jealousy, self-centeredness. All these could be putting your relationship on shaky ground. 

If you are single, the Reversed Ace of Pentacles could be telling you to be careful not to miss out on opportunities to start a romantic relationship in the future. You might be holding back because of past heartbreaks and anxiety, making you feel vulnerable and afraid to open your heart to love again. 

If you are currently dating, the Ace of Pentacles reversed is a reminder to get to know the person better. Spend more time and give the budding relationship more attention in order for it to grow and progress.

The Ace of Pentacles Reversed - Family and Home

Having the Ace of Pentacles in the reversed position for family usually means that things in your life are not going as smoothly as should be. This card can mean several things in terms of family life. For married couples, it can mean that you may have spent so much time with your career that you don’t spend much time with your spouse anymore. 

Financial issues could also cause arguments and misunderstandings among family members. You may have focused too much on achieving financial stability that you have neglected your family.  In terms of family finance, the reversed Ace of Pentacles serves as a warning to be careful about your expenditures.

The Ace of Pentacles Reversed - Work and Finances

Although it does not certainly signify financial doom, the reversed Ace of Pentacles serves as a warning to take serious consideration before overspending or putting large sums of money in a risky investment. 

Your loans may be declined, investment returns may not be great, and financial losses may be at hand. Take heart, though. Although money is vital for survival, it is not everything. It will not help if you start comparing yourself to others, especially when it comes to material possessions and financial stability. This should be a time for you to start saving and planning for a better future. Don’t spend more than what you have; find ways to live within your means.

In terms of work, the Ace of Pentacles in the reversed position is not a very good sign of good luck. The pay rise, bonus, or promotion you may be expecting are very likely to fall through. It may also mean that you are about to lose a job, or may not get the job you have always wanted. It would not be wise to make any financial commitments amidst this uncertainty. 

The Ace of Pentacles Reversed - Health and Wellness

The reversed Ace of Pentacles can serve as a warning that you are not looking after your health very well. You could be overstressing yourself at work or are doing unhealthy habits that can yield negative consequences in the future. You may have started a healthy living plan, but failed to stick to the routine. Your health may be suffering and you are not doing anything to help yourself get back in your best shape. If you continue to neglect your wellbeing, you will constantly feel exhausted and run down. 

This could also signify that there might be setbacks in your recovery from a current illness. Overall, this card gives you precautions to give importance to your health - physically, mentally, and emotionally. Work on achieving the right balance, practice mindfulness, exercise, and eat the right diet. 

The Ace of Pentacles Reversed - Personal Spirituality

In the aspect of personal spirituality, The Ace of Pentacles in reversed position indicates that something is stopping you from achieving your goals. You may not feel confident enough to even try. However, you must not let your anxiety psyche you out before you have even made your first step. 

I’m afraid that negative thoughts are the main factors that stop you from attaining your dreams. In order to accomplish great things, you must conquer your own insecurities and believe in your personal worth. Believe that you are worthy of happiness, abundance, and stability. This card encourages you to try.

This card could also signify that you are not giving importance to your spiritual growth as much as you do for material things. You may be putting off your spirituality because you are too focused on acquiring wealth. Remember that these things are not the only source of happiness; real happiness springs from within you.
