Five of Pentacles on a pentagram altar cloth — Five of Pentacles

Keywords: hardship, loss, isolation, feeling abandoned, adversity, struggle, alienation, worry

This can be a difficult card but also a card that acknowledges our hardships as they come. It is the feeling of isolation, that nobody is coming to help. You may have had some losses recently, and these are weighing heavy on our mind. Being a pentacles suit, it generally indicates earthly possessions and physical wealth, sometimes health. As the people trudge along sorrowfully in the cold, however you may notice something…

There is a light streaming brightly through the windows of the church behind. Though they do not see it, the help is there. We can see this however, and with some self reflection, we can seek out this help. Sometimes we need to be proactive and swallow our pride, asking for assistance when times are hard, instead of stubbornly just waiting for someone to notice and offer.

This card can help us reach our full potential by reminding us that if we only focus on what we don’t have, we are ignoring our opportunity to create abundance in our lives. It is important to remember to smell the flowers and sometimes looking through a different lens can help us grow into what we hope we can have. We cannot live in fear and sorrow forever, and while it is important to acknowledge our losses, we won’t move forward until we seek the forward momentum for ourselves.

Focus your intention on manifesting what you do still have and what you wish to have, instead of what you have lost or fear losing, and see the magic start to happen.
