Visual Description
A minimalist, gold line-art design sits on a pale pink background. At the top the word "KNIGHT" is printed and at the bottom the words "OF PENTACLES" appear. In the center a geometric pentacle (a five-pointed star inside a circle) is framed by overlapping circular motifs, a small crescent moon at the pentacle's heart, and ornamental dots, rays and diamond shapes extending above and below. There is no human figure; the card emphasizes symbolic, symmetrical decoration and delicate, jewel-like details.
