Nine of Pentacles
Upright
Abundance, luxury, self-sufficiency, financial independence
The Nine of Pentacles card tells you have struggled to produce wealth in your life and now you can ultimately experience the outcomes. Thanks to your works and discipline, you achieved victory and a solid ground for your material wealth which you deserve. It is time to relax and appreciate the richness.
When the Nine of Pentacles shows up in a reading, do not be frightened to celebrate, particularly as a gift for all of your tough work. You have already accomplished so much work, and this is your chance to strengthen yourself for the final stage and recognize your successes.
The Nine of Pentacles card also talks about independence. The woman in this card inspires you to do the similar – to create wealth and freedom and you can take care of yourself. Spend carefully and don’t depend on other people.
While the suit of Pentacles typically concentrates on physical richness, this card also implies that you are in balance with the atmosphere around you. You enjoy the beauty of nature, and you can explore its power to bring enjoyment to you.
Reversed
Self-worth, over-investment in work, hustling
The reversed Nine of Pentacles card reminds you that right now you need to appreciate yourself. When you notice this card, take the chance to think about your own insight of self-respect.
You may inquire if your abilities are relevant if you can require higher rates or request for a salary increase. Understand that you rate to be rich in all aspects of the term.
Furthermore, you may concentrate on developing your confidence. Spend for yourself and improve your self-love.
In some cases, the reversed Nine of Pentacles can show up when you are working too hard and deceiving yourself that you have no time to experience the results of your work.
On the other hand, the reversed Nine of Pentacles implies, if some of your special interests block you out of your life priorities, you should consider clearing some of your requirements for it. You may believe you need the greatest of everything but, actually, all you lack is your family, friends and important people around you.
Ace of Cups
Upright
Love, new relationships, compassion, creativity.
With the Ace of Cups, Blessed love and kindness are flowing through you. You are full of deep love from Nature, and you let that love flow through you into the world. You accept love, you share love, you ARE love. Your spirit overflows.
Now is the perfect time for you to open your heart and feel the strong stream of passion. You are more open to creative possibilities, loving relationships, and deep empathy for other people. As with all Ace cards, this card also comes as an invite. The Ace of Cups brings the potential for emotional satisfaction – but only if you welcome it with an open heart.
This card often arrives in Tarot readings when you allow your emotions to radiate through your efforts. You may be excited to start a new plan. You are happy with who you are and freely show this part of yourself to other people. You see pure potential in allowing your creative spirits to move.
The Ace of Cups usually signifies a new connection, such as friendship, a new family relationship or blossoming love. Open yourself to sharing unconditional love, and you will see that love flows effortlessly when you are in this kind state of mind. The water indicates the flow of emotion.
There is a generous representation of the Ace of Cups, too. See this as a time of giving and make the most of any chance to help. You have the power to share your inner light, bringing joy to those around you.
Ultimately, the Ace of Cups can mean pregnancy or birth. Check the other cards in the reading for additional verification, such as the Empress, Page of Cups or Four of Wands. It also may mean the birth of a flash of inspiration – something in which you can spend plenty of creative energy.
Reversed
Self-love, intuition, repressed emotions.
In the reversed position, Ace Of Cups expresses love for oneself. So, before you give your love out to the universe, send love to yourself, filling up with Divine love.
The reversed Ace of Cups is a sign that you are in contact with your unconscious mind and harmonized with your intuition. You are searching for this part of yourself alone right now, and learning how you can bring more flow into your life.
The reversed Ace of Cups may be a warning that you are suppressing your emotions, not wanting to reveal yourself fully to the external world. You may worry that if you let your emotions flow, they might turn into an overrunning flood that can’t be turned off. However, be cautious that you do not create an inner blockage by suppressing how you feel. If you are not ready to share your emotions, you can find ways to free them privately, through journaling, movement, or crying your anxiety and anger out.
In a love reading, the reversed Ace of Cups can tell that you are keeping your emotions for worry of getting hurt. You know that you must believe in your lover for the relationship to move ahead, but, for now, you are holding back.
Four of Pentacles
Upright
Saving money, security, conservatism, scarcity, control
The Four of Pentacles invites you to examine your connection with money. Are you saving money wisely while still enjoying your daily life? Or are you hopelessly sticking to every coin, scared to spend your money for fear that you do no could lose it forever?
In its most positive outlook, the Four of Pentacles implies that you have created abundance by maintaining a constant focus on your aims and working conservatively. You are mindful of your financial security, saving money and following your payments.
However, the Four of Pentacles typically characterize an insufficiency mindset, particularly with material properties. You are choosing to stock your investments, for worry you might miss it all. Money works best when it can transfer and exchange, not when it is being stockpiled. Try to find a healthy equilibrium between spending and saving, so you can experience the outcomes of your work but also save up.
The Four of Pentacles can also imply that you are putting too much value on material dependencies. You may be connected to physical things, allowing properties to become an important part of your life.
Beyond money and abundance, the Four of Pentacles appears when you are searching for more power in your life. You may be overly defensive so no one else threatens your relationship. On a private level, you may have a rigid approach and oppose change. Any idea of doing things creatively is, therefore, going to be met with opposition. So, staying in a comfort zone may be the way to go rather than taking any dangers at this point.
Reversed
Over-spending, greed, self-protection
The reversed Four of Pentacles can show up when you are estimating what’s essential to you, particularly when it comes to money and property. You may have placed too much importance on physical possessions and have now come to the understanding that they won’t make you fortunate. As a result, you may be releasing your hold on the need to surround yourself with ‘stuff’, and will be searching out more love and joy in your life.
The reversed Four of Pentacles can symbolize that money is slipping out of your hands and your spending amounts pass your saving habits.
Sometimes, the reversed Four of Pentacles can imply that you developed a greedy approach to money. You want more and more continuously. Look at the overall comparison of the cost versus profit, and evaluate whether your search for ‘more’ is actually bringing you the peace that you most crave.
Finally, the Four of Pentacles can appear in a Tarot reading when you are in a very protective mood. You seek safety, endurance and you are doing everything within your authority to create a solid environment for yourself.
