Two of Pentacles

KeywordsJuggling, balance, flexibility

The picture · Bright face · Shadow · Way through

Every card has four faces: what the picture shows, the bright face it turns when the situation supports it, the shadow when the same root is overdone or stuck, and the way through that the picture itself draws.

The picture

He juggles two coins in a looped band, ships pitching behind

Bright face

Many things kept moving with rhythm

Shadow

Life become a juggling act, one slip from a drop

Way through

The coins ride one looped band — find the rhythm and it holds

As your card of the day

If Two of Pentacles is the first card you draw today, the day leans toward “Many things kept moving with rhythm”. When it tips toward “Life become a juggling act, one slip from a drop”, remember the way the picture draws: The coins ride one looped band — find the rhythm and it holds.
