The Ten of Pentacles Tarot Card Meaning

The Ten of Pentacles is a card that shows a happiness that is a long time coming.

Often it will refer to retirement, planning for the future, or even lasting love. It can show immediate situations turning out well, but usually it focuses on what is in store for the long run. It can be a very difficult card in a reading because often when readings are done people are asking about current situations in love, work, health, or finances. The card itself though indicates that in the end, all will be well. You may not be in the best place currently. Your current relationship isn’t definitely going to be perfect. You may go through three or four more jobs until you find the right one for you. We know it sounds daunting, however keep in mind that currently… you, where you are now… you are doing what you are supposed to be doing. You are making choices that are good for you at this time that are getting you to a better road.

If you want to know more, say about specific “now” questions, then you definitely need to take the other cards into account in your reading. If you are asking about love for example, this card combined with another strong card about your current partner can show that there is a definite possibility for a future regarding love. Then again, if you are asking about when your finances will get better and you see the Ace of Coins reversed and other negative money cards then it can tell you that while you may not be winning the lotto any time soon, the choices that you are making for finances right now are ones that are going to pan out for you in the end.

The Ten of Pentacles is one of the more complicated cards in the deck because it requires that you have faith in yourself even if the outcome in the reading at the current problem is showing significant hurdles that you are going to have to overcome. You are responsible for you and your actions built upon future actions and lead to new choices for you on your path. The Ten of Pentacles card itself is indicative of a good outcome, but you must follow the rules. This is true of all tarot cards. If a card tells you that you are going to have a baby because you are working on having one presently but then a month later change your mind and thus your path and take a drastic step to prevent pregnancy, then that decision is on you. You can’t blame the cards and say it didn’t happen like it said it would.

With the Ten of Pentacles you need to work through any current issues that you have and realize that even through tough times, allows for the completion of a cycle and for a new one to begin. Life is constantly changing and be ready for the obstacles AND the celebrations ahead for you. You are building your future now, how it turns out is up to you. At least the Ten of Pentacles shows that someone up there is watching out for you and the Universe is rooting for you all the way! Go you!

The Ten of Pentacles in Love

It’s a 50/50 tossup when it comes to love and the Ten of Pentacles is present. As stated, the card needs to be read with the other conjoining cards to give you a clear answer on whether or not you are with your one true love or if your ex is going to be miserable without you. Without looking at anything else though, the Ten of Pentacles does indicate that you are on a path of growth and exploration in love and it is definitely possible that bad or good, that you at least DO have someone out there that is for you.

The Ten of Pentacles in Health

The Ten of Pentacles focuses on the future and in this regard, it’s a good sign for health. Since the card fixates on the long term, later in life, and the proverbial ‘golden years’ it’s a good sign that you are going to be around to see them. Often the card is read to represent those years later in life surrounded by grandchildren, in a home that you have built over time, and focusing on the wealth that you have accumulated in your world over time. With all of this in mind, it’s a good sign for vitality and strength. Even if you are sick now or worried about someone who is it’s a great card for healing. Now is the time to take a step back in your own life and ensure that you are doing all you can to remain on this path. You seem to be in a good place now and even health issues current are likely to heal. You want to pay special attention to the areas in your life where your health goals are not being met and what you can do to supplement them.

The Ten of Pentacles in Work and Wealth

When you see the Ten of Pentacles in work or financial readings it’s a sign that you need to stop your spending and you need to turn your mindset to savings. Planning is a key element to the later years and it may even be a good time to think about your retirement – 401K, lifelong purchases, or security that will last you during hard times. A good omen of the Ten of Pentacles is that overall it is a card of abundance. It states that you have the tools to create wealth in your life, but you have to understand their worth and how to use them. Consider ways in which you are able to save, able to provide sustained security, and how you can grow what you have now rather than seeking on what you can get in the future. There literally is no time like the present!

When the Ten of Pentacles is reversed it takes the focus from the long term to the now. Often a card of careful planning when it is flipped over it indicates rash behaviors, desperate times, and taking risks that you cannot afford. You may be feeling like you have nothing to lose right now (or in the recent past) and careless decisions will only cause you to go further down the rabbit hole. You need to stop and carefully assess your situation. Even if you feel that you are alright currently financially and everything is fine the reversed position states clearly that you are not prepared for the future. Concentrate your efforts on stability and longevity and avoid taking needless risks in love or money at this time. It’s an excellent time to get back to the basics and center your focus back to your base needs before branching out and exploring options.

The Queen of Pentacles

 
 
 

The Queen of Pentacles Tarot Card Meaning

The Queen of Pentacles represents all things fertile, abundant, green, and wise.

Whenever you are going through a phase in which your finances or your home life are not what they should be, you should call upon the energies of the Queen of Pentacles to assist you. Now, if the Queen is appearing in your reading, you will experience a level of abundant support like no other time in your life. Here all of the hard work that you have invested, tilling and sowing your metaphorical fields, is paying off and you will get what you deserve. This is something to consider throughout your life, the more work you put in the more likely you are to get something wonderful in return should you choose to allow yourself.

The image of the Queen of Pentacles in the Rider Waite deck depicts a queen who is comfortably relaxing on her throne with carved heads of goat adorning the arms, behind her there is the abundance of ripe fruit and cupid is at her back. All of these symbols represent abundance in their varying forms. The goat is representative of the harvest of milk to make cheese, the fruit is representative of the abundance of the harvest and the cupid is representative of love in its most enriched period of life. The Queen is surrounded by green fields and there is a rabbit of fertility sitting at her side nearby.

Above her hangs a vine of red roses symbolizing the power she has over her desires. She remains quietly contemplating a pentacle that she holds in her lap. This card is most commonly represented by a woman with black hair and eyes. You are a dependable person, resourceful and you have good instincts and some would say that you are a natural leader. This card is representative of mother and of the provider. You are a channel for practical information.

The Queen of Pentacles is a woman generous with her gifts. She is a rich and noble soul who is compassionate and charitable, for she has more than she could ever want or need. The cycle of abundance is one that perpetuates itself. You give more to receive more. This may be difficult for you to consider if you are going through a phase of poverty, where you fear where your next meal is going to come from or you are drowning in bills – or both! But the Queen of Pentacles tells you that it is possible to be free of your shackles if you would only allow yourself to give in order to receive. If you do not have money, then give of your time, of your effort. The more that you give, the more you are telling the Universe you have and so you will only attract more and more.

The Queen is masterful in building new worlds for herself by nurturing all of the creative centers in life. She is a talented person who is family oriented, of course, being that she is the Queen of the Home and Hearth. She has the wise sense of business around her and is not afraid of hard work, much like the Knight of Pentacles. The benefits of hard work consistently bear fruit. She sometimes can be non-responsive at times, despite her charitable nature as can you, but over all she is capable of being very happy at work or at home. She has a greatness of spirit that is unquenchable.

The Queen of Pentacles in Love

When the Queen of Pentacles appears for you in a reading of love or relationships, you should expect now is a good time to get yourself into a very solid and good, as well as healthy relationship. You have put your time and effort into improving yourself now, and you are feeling comfortable, confident and ready to really put yourself out there. If you are already in a relationship, then this is a time that is going to be very fruitful for you. Do not be surprised if there is a pregnancy or birth of a child, or a time of new events that bring you and your partner great joy. If you are searching for love, know that now is the time for you to be picky, to find the person that exemplifies who you are. Do not waste time on those that you know are not available emotionally or physically because the Queen will allow you to find a long lasting mate.

The Queen of Pentacles in Health

The Queen of Pentacles is representative of the home and the hearth, therefore, if you are feeling health concerns of the spirit, in which you find yourself depressed consistently, and then you must take some time improving the conditions of your home. Clean up the areas that haven’t been cleaned for a while, rearrange even. If you are the type who keeps a good house, then do a house cleansing. The new energy of your home will help you develop a new sense of joy in the mind.

The Queen of Pentacles in Work and Wealth

Now is the time for you to be blessed with a financial abundance that you never thought possible. Even more so than what the Knight of Pentacles has to offer, the Queen tells you that whatever you want will be. All you have to do is remember that it is possible. Your thoughts create your life, pick the good ones.

The queen of pentacles Reversed

Reversed Meaning - Queen Of Pentacles

You must accept the fact at this time that you require nurturing relationships in life and get rid of those that are not otherwise you are going to go through a phase where you won’t be able to trust anyone and that is counterproductive to where you need to be right now in your life. When the Queen of Pentacles reversed presents itself, it means that you have the potential to have all that you desire, and getting caught up in the neglectful laziness of those surrounding you will get you nowhere. You will only become nervous and confused. The reversed position of this card points out that right now you are already in the cycle of being mistrustful of others and so you must nip the cycle in the bud before it gets any worse. Trust that you know what to do, and focus all of your energies on the beautiful, healthy energies of the Queen.
