Knight of Pentacles


The Knight of Pentacles sits on a black horse surveying the land around him.  He holds a pentacle in his right hand and he looks serious but calm as if he's thinking deeply about something before acting on it. 

This knight works hard towards his goals and you can bet that once he's set his mind on doing something he won't let go until he's achieved success.  He's doggedly determined and single minded and you'd be hard pressed to make him waver from his course.  Ask him to go for a wild night out when he's in the middle of doing some work and you'll get a short reply.

This Knight is almost obsessive in his attention to detail and it can be irritating to those around him.  Sometimes you have to get a move on. It's a bit like a painter who can't finish a painting.  Little bits have to be worked and reworked and in the end no-one sees the painting because it never leaves the easel.   Such doggedness can make the Knight seem like a dull person.  Everything has to be just so and he's so stubborn that he won't even admit to his failings.

If this describes you to certain extent then it's an indication that you need to let go and have a bit of fun.  Don't be stodgy like the Knight and while it's good to get things right you don't have to plan to the last detail.  Try leaving a bit to chance now and again.

On the other side of the coin you might be a bit of a hasty sort of person who lives their life in chaos and spends far too much money.  If this is you then a few nights in wouldn't do you any harm and a bit more planning would do you a lot of good.  Don't put off sorting out your finances in the hope that the debts will go away.  You need to work out a plan and stick to it.  Ask for help if necessary but don't be tempted to take out a loan to pay it all off.  Get some impartial help from somewhere like the Citizens Advice Bureau.  You'll be very glad you did in the long run. 

Your daily tarot card
There are times when all of us feel that we need some guidance in life, especially when we feel unsure about the path we're taking. A daily tarot card can often help you to see things a bit more clearly. There is no magic in this. What you are doing is drawing on your inner resources and strength. You are using your intuition and the illustration on the card to help you to see things in every possible light. I find that rather than relying on a computer to draw the daily card for me it's best to have an actual deck that I can draw a card from myself. The deck I'm using here is the Universal Rider Waite deck which is easily available online. Some of the auctions are shown below, or for more information visit our Rider Waite page.
