The Nine Of Pentacles Tarot Card Meaning

The Nine of Pentacles is a card of sacrifice and discipline as a means to getting what you want.

When this card is revealing in your reading you are in good hands. The Nine of Pentacles shows that unlike others, you have learned from your own mistakes and you are working on moving forward in your life. Right now is an excellent time to be making plans to complete goals, rather than to be starting on something new. Take the time now to reap what you have sown and to watch the positive materialize.

Often we mere mortals will finish a task and then move on to the next without a thought of consequences. This is not a time that you want to do that because the Nine of Pentacles usually represents positive rewards coming your way. As you may know 3 is a magic number. It is the number of the divine; a blessed digit. With the Nine it is the manifestation of 3, threefold (3x3=9) and it shows an array of good fortune for you.

The culmination of your heard work has come to a head and it is time to celebrate! It is also a great time for family, coming together, and planning events. You may want to celebrate with others or even show off your hard work a little bit. You never know, you may have some information to be sharing with people soon as well since this is a good card for fertility and family! Much good energy comes from this card and now is the time to dwell upon the possibilities that are being created and assert your focus into the positive areas of your life. Do not dwell in the past when the present has so much to offer!

The Nine of Pentacles in Love

Focus on the contacts that you have already made when looking for love. When the Nine of Pentacles is present, it is likely that love is around the corner and that sparks are already flying. Whether in a relationship or not, connections at this time or strong and there are great opportunities for growth and positive natural change in romance. The Nine of Pentacles is a vibrant card with astounding energy. Now is the time to cultivate relationships of all kinds and bring them to fruition within the direction that you are hoping for. If you find that you are feeling down or left out in love, often all you need to do is to look around. Sometimes when things are dark, it’s easy to focus on the negative and ignore what you already have. Don’t downplay your emotions at this time. Speak up and act out in order to get what you want.

The Nine of Pentacles in Health

The Nine of Pentacles brings good news for health, especially if you have been working on a health concern (like losing weight, controlling blood pressure, etc.) or concerned about a need for healing (such as recovering from surgery or after an injury). The Nine of Pentacles is a strong card for the strength of mind and body and says that now there are energies that are helping you along. The time is right for increased stamina and you may want to use this to your advantage. Continue working on your positive efforts and you will see rewards!

The Nine of Pentacles in Work and Wealth

The man on the Nine of Pentacles card is tending his garden and noticing what is growing forth from whence he planted. There are pleasant feelings surrounding the card denoted by the yellow background and the thriving plant before him. Like the man on the card, this is a good time for you regarding both career and money. With money specifically, the card often accompanies a windfall of sorts, again from an investment, or simply finding money that you had forgotten that you had. It’s not money from nowhere and is usually associated with your earning of the funds in some way. Now would be a good time to go through your portfolio… or even your couch cushions… to find unexpected strains of income. Concerning work, the Nine of Pentacles tells you that you are doing a number of things right. First, you seem to have been working hard in your job or career and when this card is present it is likely that someone with power or status has taken notice of your efforts. It is a reminder card that you are on the right track for job development. Continue moving forward and that attention will be considered in some way that rewards you.

The Nine Of Pentacles in the Reversed Position

Reversed Nine of Pentacles in a reading

When the Nine of Pentacles is revealed in the reversed position the news is not all bad. There is still good news to be had for you… if only you are willing to work for it. Unfortunately, those that don’t heed the warning of the Nine of Pentacles in the reversed position end up missing out on a missed opportunity in their life that they will likely kick themselves about later. Typically when the card comes up it is telling you that there are chances that you are missing by not being active enough or initiating the proper channels to get what you want. For example, in love… if you are looking for love then you are either looking in the wrong place or not taking a direct enough action to catch the eye of someone special. In work, there is likely to be an opportunity for advancement but you need to shine! Be mindful of chances around you right now and fight the urge to be lazy right now. Your window of opportunity won’t be there forever!

The Lovers Tarot Card Meaning

Seeing the Lovers in your reading is a favorable sign.

Often interpreted as romantic love referring to marriage or sexuality, it is also much more than this. The card being present represents the hand of the divine reaching down and blessing you in your life at this time. Now is a time of fruitful change and one in which you are encouraged to act. Changes that come up in your life at this time are usually for the better and bring with them good fortune, harmony, and a time of peace in your life.

The Lovers card represents love and affection at it’s highest point. The two figures on the card offer themselves naked to the higher being in the sky often referred to as God. Thy symbolism of growth and sexuality in the card leads the viewer to understand that the love that the card is depicting is not first love or the beginning stages of love. It is more pronounced and mature and often references marriage between the two on the card.

The Lovers card is one of the cards in the tarot that greatly depends on the other cards surrounding it. It’s important to view the location and the placement of the card in order for the true meaning for you personally to be understood. If drawn in a one card reading – like in the case that you are looking for inspiration for your day or wondering what energies are around you right now then it is truly a great card. It says that your day is going to be one of attention and uncharacteristically positive. Today is a good day to make choices, take risks, and be carefree. If in a more complex reading the Lovers card also heralds good news regarding communication and personal values. If you are seeking the answer to a specific dilemma rest assured that you are in the right and that you can trust your own opinions to be received in a positive light.

The Lovers in Love

The Lovers card is a grand card indicating relationship bonds and the affection of those around you. Often it will denote that you are in or headed towards a lasting relationship worth developing and committing to. Other areas of life are affected by this card as well. It confirms positive inclinations of the heart by telling you that you can trust the path you are on should continue moving forward. If you are looking for love and the Lovers card appears congratulations! This is a favorable omen about a relationship beginning. Most of the time the Lovers card appears when a relationship will be starting with someone that you already know and are already close or intimate with. It can indicate that a friend is actually interested in something more or that a lover is looking for a more serious arrangement.

In a relationship reading if you see the Lovers card combined with the Tower, the Magician or the Devil card it tells you that you must be wary in a relationship – usually love or close friendship – and that something is being hidden from you. With these combinations but the Devil card specifically in your reading, it is always best to seek a further explanation by asking for clarification from the deck and drawing another random card. This is because the Devil card and the Love card are actually closely related to card mythology. When you see these two together it can indicate an unhealthy obsession or unrequited love that should be avoided.

The Lovers As Feelings

This is a card which means the person you have asked about feels that you are his soul mate. The lovers is about that special person that you connect with. This is about passionate nights together, but also it is about choice. The choice to be together on a psychic level and also about how two people can be for each other. When the lovers appear as feelings it is about being full of emotion and that you both will be together in the end. I like to think of this as Romo and Juliet in terms of that love connection. This is about wanting sex with you, wanting love with you and just wanting you all around. The star sign with this card is Gemini which makes me feel there is a balance here, the history of the lovers card is about “love” in my view. That deep sensual love and lust that we feel in the beginning of a relationship. 

The Lovers Tarot Card Yes or No

The Lovers tarot card for “Yes or No” readings is about the connection between love and hate, in my experience. Reading tarot for 30 years I believe it is not as clear as you might think when it comes to yes or no. I know that seems a bit sharp. In my view, this card is a reminder that sometimes we can block off or ghost at the drop of a hat, but if we love ourselves enough to take a step back and just wonder why has this happened. This card in love yes or no is a “Maybe” as it is a choice card, just like the seven of cups in my view. The lover's tarot card acts as a "moral reminder" of how important it is to be kind, show compassion and be understanding - even when it isn't easy. Learning to trust your intuition and act with integrity will get you the results you desire in any situation, especially when it comes to matters of the heart - so remember to listen to what your heart tells you.

The Lovers As Action/Advice

The Lovers card tells us to choose love and move forward with our own decisions, no matter how weird or crazy they might be. It calls for a complete bridge of two souls merging together in real strength across the rainbow. To use this connection wisely is to think positively, act lovingly, and do what your heart tells you is right. For love radiates not only as an emotion but through our actions too: Love itself can be seen like a verb or power we direct towards ourselves and others alike!

The Lovers As Past

When I see the lover's tarot card in the past position, I personally see this as bridging our hearts and souls together as one. I love this when it pops up in the past position. This can be past love or marriage partners. In the past, if you pull the lovers then I believe the union has already taken place. I do feel this is a great card for love in the future if you are single and the past has not treated you too well.

The lover's card in the past reminds me very much of Adam and Eve, in that there has been this amazing connection between you both - you are here because there has been a Union between two people - who are in LOVE. If you are currently alone or on your own and you draw the Lovers for the past it can mean that an everlasting love has entered your life. 

I also believe that we have Temptations no matter what happens in our lives: temptations of how we go about a love affair or temptations to end a situation that we don't feel serves us anymore. so, I do feel that this card equals that love is likely to flourish and the fact that it appeared in your past means that love has happened between you and somebody else. I'm also going to say that nobody's actually perfect in life we all have our ups and downs. few are looking at finding out if somebody still wants to be with you and you draw the Lovers for the past.

The Lovers Tarot Card As Reconciliation

Standing together in my card the two lovers can get over any storm. The message if you are asking for love reconciliation from this tarot card is that love will happen again. Previously, the man and women were married by the Hierophant on the fools journey. Whenever I draw this card in my readings, I believe that love wins though all the rubbish that life throws at us. The lovers is about choice as I have said before but also decision. If this card pops up in a reversal for reconciliation then it is probably a no I am afraid. 

The Lovers As A Person

It can mean that a person is thinking of you allot, and as this card is ruled by Venus then this could be connected to a Taurus. There is a focus on following your heart if this comes up as a person. I do think there should be some level here of giving a choice in love. And, I believe this is a good card if you want marriage from this person so this is the choice of marrying someone or not. The card is also deemed related to Gemini - so to me, this is about the fact that this person can be up and down about you. Sometimes you in there minds and at times you don’t. To me, this is all about crazy or things that will pass, and good decisions will be needed going forward in this relationship. 

The Lovers in Health

The Lovers isn’t a common card for health readings, but if it does come up it is usually less about your personal health and more a reassurance that you have support at this time. Other times in health readings the Lovers card will indicate a health problem with a body part that has two parts to it – kidneys, lungs, arms, eyes and there being an issue with both. The Lovers is also indicative of all things revolving around the heart, metaphysically speaking. It will appear in times of grief or loss, but usually as a hopeful card showing that things will be better. When dealing with a loss.

The Lovers Work and Wealth

Attraction isn’t always between two people. The Lovers card represents attraction in finances and money as well. Think of the ‘Law of Attraction’ and apply it to your work or financial situation. Now is a good time for you to branch out and make something happen for yourself. If you have been thinking about a job change then now is the time to do it. When dealing with a delicate work or financial time, rest assured that there is assistance coming your way that is going to lighten your load. The Lovers card can also refer to the coming together of forces, such as in a business proposition, starting a company, or even when seeking a loan. It is an excellent time for you to be seeking out these opportunities.

Reversed Lovers in a reading

Even in the reversed position the Lovers card still represents attraction, coming together, and completion. However, when turned flip-side the coming together that the card speaks of is for all of the wrong reasons. In a relationship setting it refers to people being sexual but not connecting in other areas or can represent a marriage that is lacking substance. The two are not seeing eye to eye to eye concerning long-term goals. The reversed Lovers also gives an air of materialism, making rash monetary decisions, and being irresponsible in other areas of your life. Consider focusing on avenues that make you feel whole rather than those that merely make you joyous.
