Nine of Pentacles

The Nine of Pentacles quote

"There needs to be bolder thinking, ... on how to measure the quality of life of men and women in the work force. Currently, success is measured by material advancements. We need to readjust the definition of success to account for time outside of work and satisfaction of life, not just the dollars-and-cents bottom line."
~ Betty Friedan (1921 - 2006)

The Nine of Pentacles in your reading

You walk through your garden and are enjoying yourself tremendously. Here and there you pick some ripe fruit and look at it a little better. You are totally satisfied with how far you've come. Finally you enter the phase in which you can harvest what you sowed so long ago. You had to wait for a long time but now it is time. Be proud of yourself, for what you've reached. It is something not many can reach.

The Nine of Pentacles also shows how nice it is to spend some time with yourself so now and then. Just some time for you to think. Time to do what YOU want. TIme to just walk around and look around you. Just doing nothing and a lot at the same time. Finally you can breath again. How long have you been running around? It is time to take a step back and give yourself some slack. It is a talent to be able to be alone and accept yourself. If you can do that you are emotionally grown up.

The woman in this card knows exactly what she's worth and how she's capable to do her business without putting herself in the small spot. She gives herself what she needs and prospers. Still it is possible that she has to search for that feeling so now and then. She knows she's all worth it but still it is hard to feel it all like that so now and then. Is this all, can be a question that comes up then.

This card stands for the longing for financial security and the need for comfort and materialism. Try to keep everything in balance and learn to enjoy the simple things that are just there. Things you don't have to do anything for. Look around you and see things through different eyes. It's really there.
