The Court of Pentacles
The King of Pentacles
The most priceless thing money can buy.
Confidence
Affluent, Laughluent.
The pinnacle of pentacles.
Such a such and such.
And you’ve got the Midas touch.
So dare to be laissez faire.
Those of your coin are rare.
Knight of pentacles
That defensive stance
That glance.
Nothing left to happenstance.
So wary it’s scary.
No nonsense, exacting.
This isn’t play acting.
Known in several counties to be a hunter of bounties.
Wielding a shield,
Daring to be prepared.
Prepared to be daring.
But there’s a lot of Why there
And thousand yard staring.
Knave of Pentacles
Head in the clouds.
Feet on the Earth.
You monetize everything for all you’re worth.
And what you hold in your hands is not merely a mirror.
The world can be why’d
But your vision is near.
You’re a myopic youth, in truth, obsessed with wealth.
You can even be jealous of yourself!
Practical, tactical, your focus tyrannical-
Geez, dude. Take a sabbatical.
The six of pentacles
Here’s the report:
You need balance, support.
You need empathy and its opposite.
You need charity. A lot of it.
You need to share your winnings. Help start new beginnings.
Or are you on the receiving end?
It depends.
Beware the inordinately subordinate.
Remember your underlings.
They’re the ones that give you wings.
