The Story of Pentacles
The Pursuit of Material Attainment
The Hero of Pentacles is a sensual young soul. A spark of yearning within compels them to travel north to seek out everything the material world has to offer.
The world offers them many opportunities, but they soon become overburdened by the number of pursuits they are trying to juggle.
They find relief by employing the help of others with diverse skills and a common goal. Together they create something beautiful.
The success of their undertaking leads to wealth and material security. However, they become over protective of what they have and lose sight of their true goal.
Their stagnant greed brings about poverty of the mind, body, and soul. Negative thoughts have isolated them from the help they seek.
Their experience with struggle makes them realize the importance of charity and generosity. With a new understanding of the balance between give and take they become self-sufficient.
They continue to work hard and diligently to be a contributing member of society. However, they begin to grow tired of the grind and contemplate a new course of action more aligned with their soul’s desire.
They take a step back from their manual labor to pursue a more creative undertaking. It takes time and patience to learn a new skill, but they are nothing if not diligent.
Eventually, they are rewarded for all their hard work. They are able to find peace in the material comfort they have created for themselves.
They worked hard to create a better future, not only for themselves, but for generations to come. They feel a sense of true accomplishment and connection to the world.
