THREE of PENTACLES


RIDER-WAITE Tarot ... click for more information

This deck is based on the Rider-Waite, but has far more appealing imagery. The colours are bright and cheerful and the deck is ideal for beginners. It is also a good deck for young readers, or for readers who like their subjects to interact with the deck, as the cards are small and easy to handle. There is a happy quality about this deck and the characters in particular have plenty of 'life' in them, especially the children. For readers who prefer to give positive, inspiring readings, this deck is ideal.

This card tells us that we need to work with others rather than against them if we are to succeed. It also promises that effort will be rewarded and hard work will not go unnoticed. The subject who draws this card is entering a phase where they need to concentrate on the big picture rather than letting themselves be bogged down by minor details. They should concentrate on achieving their goals slowly but surely, rather than expecting results overnight.

When this card is in a prominent position, it tells us that the subject of the reading has all the skills and knowledge they need to progress in whatever they wish to do. They should not let themselves be detracted from their aims by others who do not understand or share their motives - instead, they should seek out those who have similar goals. Teamwork is often very important when this card is drawn.

Although this card tends to appear mainly in readings concerning career or business matters, it can also apply to more personal issues. If it were to appear in a reading concentrating on a subject's romantic life, it would be telling them that they need to compromise with their partner, rather than working against them. They need to concentrate on the areas they agree on, rather than worrying about those where they don't see eye-to-eye.

This card is also a good one to see if the subject is looking for support from others. It assures them that support is readily available, as there are plenty of people around them who share their views, or are pursuing the same goals. The subject simply needs to find them and combine forces. The very presence of this card suggests that circumstances will lead to them being able to do this without any great difficulty.

In my own customised Tarot, I illustrated this one with a hand grudgingly placing a small coin on a church collection plate, against a stained glass window featuring a large dollar-sign, and gave it the caption "this isn't god" (from Marilyn Manson)...i.e. against the commercialization of spirituality, or church of Mammon; what do you think of that different perspective/interpretation? ;-))
