King of Pentacles

The King of Pentacles is known to put aside small issues for an uncompromising focus on long-term vision. In your life, they may appear as a boss or mentor who encourages you to spend time in long-term endeavours for matters close to health, money, and family. Family and security are their primary concern. This is a family doctor, the hardworking head of a household, or even a tax accountant who helps you see the larger picture through budgeting. They’ve spent many years building up their practice and are thus considered the most mature of the pentacle cards. This card can represent you or another person, likely someone older. If this card is your energy, it’s carrying a message that you’ve been doing well handling earthly matters. If it’s someone else, you may or may not know them yet, but they’ll play a significant role in relationship-building or financial gains.

King of Pentacles Reversed

Reversed, the King of Pentacles is still considered the head of something close to your body, whether that’s your family, workplace, or medical treatment. Since this card is reversed, it implies they’re not moving with the greatest of integrity. Often this card appears for manipulative family members especially if they are in charge of the finances. It’s a sign of irresponsibility yet controlling behavior and rigidity. Like a boss who micromanages to the point where their best workers quit, they’ve lost sight of the long-term vision. If this card represents you, simply grounding yourself with a walk in nature or interrupted time with a family pet may help balance out your energy. Anything that feels good to your senses can help, including listening to music or a long shower.
