Standing upright

A craftsman is hard at work at his daily routine, hammering and chiselling a golden pentacle. This pentacle is hanging on the wall in front of him along with another five which have been completed. There are two still sitting at his feet to be worked on.

Standing in reverse 

A position with feelings of frustration with your work, business, or project. There may be a lack of dedication or diligence in your tasks. This could also mean to put in unskilful effort.

Interpretation 

This card represents someone who is nicely building up their pentacles. They are grounded in their attitude to work which has brought them much success. This is a meticulous person who has built something up from the ground albeit slowly, who is much recognised for their flare, artisanship, and dedication. This person is on their way up the career ladder without realising because they are so focused and involved in what they do. Their monetary gains are important, but this is a person who can make increased money by being creative and doing what they do best. It is time to see your worth and value. The more creative you become the less you will focus on how much money you already have, then more success and riches will be accomplished.
