Ace of Pentacles

Images from the Laughing Eye Weeping Eye tarot, the Rider-Waite Smith tarot, and the Colorful Tears tarot

The Ace of Pentacles begins a more stable period–or the seeking out of one.

Here, the first earthen star seed appears, letting you know a garden will soon follow. 

Pentacles are the suit of everything that provides: work, home, and money. You might be getting a new job, finding better opportunities, increasing wealth, or improving your living situation. 

The Ace symbolizes the beginning of the expedition. The pentacle is your intention, planted. As the greenery of life pushes up from the soil, the shoots take time to expand. Materialize happens in stages. You’ll need to give yourself over to the slow growth of your potential and vision. 

Overall, this card is a good sign that something lasting and bountiful is coming. Whatever you need will materialize, but you’ll also have to take steps to make that happen!

Pentacles are element earth, which represents the slow and steady. You’re asked to methodically invest your energy into your focus and carry patience while things develop and build.

On a spiritual level, the Ace of Pentacles represents a time of feeling more grounded and embodied. You might move from a heady framework into a more corporeal mindset. This means you’ll need to explore all things physical. Are you eating well? What’s happening in your body? Are you safe in your environment?

When this card appears reversed in a reading, it can mean that you’re struggling to feel grounded, safe, prosperous, or focused on what you want in the future. You might also know something needs to change but are unsure what to do.

Ultimately, the Ace of Pentacles represents the need for security, abundance, and balance. A new era of stability is coming your way. Embrace what that looks like and feels for you.
