The King of Pentacles in your reading

Your business instinct demands from you that you are finally put in some energy. Make use of your knowledge and research new opportunities or things that you don't know. There is work to do. You're almost finished with your project but a lot still needs to be done. When you work now you'll have the chance to finish some things that you have been procrastinating.

From your experience in life you're able to understand people. You know what their plan is and keep that in mind. You are a fighter, but you won't play out other people against each other. You can be characterized as a stayer and you don't give up until you're finished. From that fighters mentality you are probably competition to others. Your mercantilism will take you far. Use it.

If you are at a point to pay a lot of money for please know that this is the right moment. Don't guess.. but know. Are you sure you will get your money back when it isn't what you expected? Depending the position of this card you have to be prepared to loose it even though the profits are steep. Do your research if there aren't better ways to earn money.

This is the card that asks from you to start work. The time to be lazy is really over. Give yourself a kick in the butt and finish the job that has been waiting for so long.
