Page of Pentacles tarot card

Tarot card meaning Page of Pentacles

In a green meadow among flowers stands a youth, holding a pentacle up before his eyes with both hands and studying it as if nothing else existed. Ploughed fields and a grove lie behind him. He is the student: diligence, a practical dream, a first step taken seriously.

Upright

A chance to learn, or to begin something real, is before you. The Page of Pentacles is the diligent student, and he asks you to approach this matter with patience and care. Study it. Make a plan. Start small and be thorough. Welcome news arrives about your work or your studies. What you take seriously now grows into something substantial.

Reversed

He has skipped the lesson. Reversed, the Page of Pentacles is distracted, lazy or unrealistic; he dreams of results and neglects the homework. Plans stay vague, or an opportunity is wasted for lack of preparation. Come back to the basics and do them properly.

In love

Nothing here is rushed. This is someone serious and a little shy, who shows interest through steady attention more than through words. In a relationship, practical care and loyalty build trust. For someone single, love grows out of a friendship or shared studies.

In work

A course of study, a traineeship, a first job, a practical project. You are learning the ropes, and your seriousness impresses. Set realistic goals and work methodically. It is a small beginning with real prospects.

Yes or no?

Yes. It is a promising start, if you approach it with care and diligence.
