Ace of Pentacles
Upright: A new financial or career opportunity, manifestation, abundance
Reversed: Lost opportunity, lack of planning and foresight
Ace of Pentacles, like other Aces of the Tarot, represents new beginnings, opportunities, and potential. As a Pentacles card, these new beginnings correlate to the material world: finances, wealth, career, physical health and manifestation of your goals. Ace of Pentacles heralds a sense of prosperity and abundance in the material or financial areas of your life. As with all Aces in the Tarot deck, this card illustrates the possibility of a new endeavor but does not guarantee its manifestation or success. This is up to you. Keep your eyes open for chances to manifest your goals and realize your inner potential.
Ace of Pentacles has a green pentacle and a dead apple "tree of knowledge." This tree depicts the Dia de los Muertos theme of death and rebirth, as the tree is coming to life with a new branch of green leaves (a new beginning, rebirth, new potential) and a red apple (fruit of labor, effort, or wealth.) This Ace signifies abundance in all areas of your life. Ace of Pentacles symbolizes wealth in a broader sense-happiness, fulfillment, potential, and love. Feel blessed and deserving. Live by the Law of Attraction and send your positive energy and intent into the Universe so you will receive more in return.
In occult uses of Tarot, the Coins suit is considered part of the "Minor Arcana" and may alternately be known as "Pentacles." In divinatory usage, the suit is connected with the classical element of Earth, the physical body, and possessions or wealth. All three "earth" zodiacs, Taurus, Virgo, Capricorn, are added here. The Earth element is one of rooting in, crafting, and conserving and is highly connected to the senses. Have you ever heard someone described as "earthy?" The term usually describes people who are grounded and oriented to what is "real;" they are able to easily get a handle on and face an entire situation quickly and nimbly. This trait often makes them very productive and able to create tangible results.
