Five of Pentacles
Pay attention to your finances today — meaning not just your income, but also savings and expenditures.
The Five of Pentacles can mark a period of financial adversity, such as seeing your earnings held up or seeing your resources dwindling as a result of unexpected expenses.
As Pentacles are linked to “values,” we most often think of money. But they also relate to self-worth: it’s hard to feel good about yourself when you’re struggling — financially or otherwise.
In this version of the card we see a woman attempting to slink away from a church unnoticed, under the dark of night. Has she sought sustenance there, only to be turned away? Or is she so afraid to reach out for help in the first place that she never even bothered to knock?
There’s a cross in the window, made up of five gold coins (pentacles). An eye watches her from the doorway as she slips away.
There are elements of shame and humiliation inherent in this imagery. She may have gotten caught doing something she knows was wrong.
She doesn’t have anything on her person to sustain her — and she doesn’t have a friend to turn to. She’s naked and alone.
You too may feel vulnerable and exposed under your current circumstances. You may be afraid to ask for help, especially if you’re sensitive to being watched or judged.
The message here though is to overcome those fears — to reach out for help when you need it, without fear of reprisal.
