Five of Pentacles

Gah. Cards like this appear and we wonder why we read Tarot. There is a lesson to learn from the green ooze, and it is this: “You can’t always get what you want. But if you try sometimes, you get what you need.” – Mick Jagger. And so we have it, you’re feeling rejected. You wanted something in your life to go a certain way, but instead, there was a weird turn through a dark alley with broken bottles. Seeing this card suggests that you are feeling down and out due to some hard times, but despite this, there’s hope. You may be suffering (possibly even physically or mentally), but all is not lost! What you need to do now is seek the support of others. Friends, family, doctors, and lovers all fit the bill (unless they caused you to struggle in the first place). The message brought on by the 5 of Pentacles is that we all experience suffering at some point in our lives, and we all need somebody to lean on. So find your leaning post, and take things one day at a time. Surrender to the fact that you can’t control everything all of the time. To see this card reversed in a reading can mean that you’ve overcome a difficult period of loss and rejection or that you are in denial of how much you are struggling.
