Description of the Card
This is the story of the Little Red Hen. The hen planted the seeds, hoed the ground, weeded the garden, tended it, watered it, and then … waited for it. This card is about hard work and waiting for that work to become something tangible. It’s exhausting and annoying for those who are impatient. It’s fulfilling and enchanting for those who can pace themselves. It reminds me of the Amanda Palmer song “In My Mind.” She sings about waiting until she’s older so she’ll carefully look after things. Now she’s so busy that she can’t look at anything. But she’s sure she’ll look when she is older.
Seven of Pentacles Inverted
Not really the card of procrastination, but close. More the card for the Little Red Hen’s buddies. They didn’t want to help with any of the work but really wanted some of the reward. When this card comes up, people need to think about the long term instead of the short term.
