Symbolism
Here everything is certainly more pleasant. But look at how the material ivy envelops our Santissima. Her head is covered with white roses – which show all-encompassing love and happiness. And the purse is torn and a coin is about to fall out of it. This is the purse of a peasant-worker. But she is content with this. In this arcana there is money that we can accumulate, but we fall into spending, but we accumulate toward a goal in any case, for the possibility of qualitative transition. The 8 on the purse shows that the process is systematic and as is customary with Waite – 'conveyor-like'.
Card's Message
A person in a period of accumulating funds that they earn. But parts of the money go somewhere. Relationships – People are together in a position of accumulation, preparing financial energy that will lead to changes. Career – Simply may show that a person works and earns. The main goal is not career but money. Money – Money that is collected, accumulated.
Visual Description
A green-tinted skull with ornate decorative markings fills the center of the card, framed by cascading dark hair and a wreath of tightly coiled white roses. Thick green vines and leaves weave around the skull and across the card edges, partially obscuring a red pouch held by skeletal hands at the bottom center; the pouch bears the faint figure of an 8. The card border shows the word "PENTACLES" at the bottom and the number 8 printed near the left and right margins. The overall palette is deep greens and muted reds, and the scene is densely overgrown with plant life.
