Abundance and Sharing Wealth

This is about sharing your wealth, and there is a lot of wealth. Whether it’s emotional or spiritual wealth, you have it in abundance and are more than willing to share. It’s about inheritance, financial stability, and charity. There is a lot of family legacy in this card. It’s not always money that gets graciously passed on.

Patterns in Life

Pentacles are generally about patterns in your life. The Ten of Pentacles is usually a pattern you didn’t design and indicates being unable or unwilling to separate the opinions and needs of others from those that are truly yours. You can’t see the tree for the forest, I suppose. It’s good to be part of the forest. Even arguments need to come from a place of love. This isn’t about separating ourselves from other people or dismissing them or their opinions. It’s about being among people without basing your emotional health or well-being on them. That’s a load that they don’t need to carry, although it seems like a lot of people want to these days.

Ten of Pentacles Inverted

Imagining the card upside down, you can see all of those pentacles falling away. If the pentacles represent money, relationships, and security, you can see what this means pretty clearly. Loss is here. Loneliness is here. Financial stress—even devastation.
