Are you content with your life just as it is right now?
Do you fret about achieving tangible success? Does your fear and anxiety rob you of enjoying your life right now?
The Queen of Pentacles is seated on a sturdy throne decorated with the emblem of Capricorn, the astrological goat. The sign of Capricorn is ruled by Saturn, also known as Father Time. The Queen of Pentacles knows how to use time and patience to achieve her ultimate success. She also has a great sense of timing. She wisely keeps an eye on the long game.
In the foreground of the card (bottom right- hand corner) is the Queen’s pet rabbit. Rabbits can symbolize nervous energy. This reminds us that we must still act toward our dreams even when we are afraid. Rabbits can also symbolize fertility (hence the Easter Bunny and the budding of Spring). Rabbits were believed to bring good luck and swift fortune. The rabbit can symbolize the Queen’s nervous energy, and yet the Queen of Pentacles doesn’t drive the rabbit out of her garden. The Queen knows that nervous energy can be useful when properly channeled to get something done. Just now, however, the Queen is ignoring the fears of her rabbit and is instead focusing on the coin in her lap. This symbolizes that the Queen is not letting her anxieties distract her from what she is trying to manifest.
Even the Queen of Pentacles gets nervous, but you would never guess it, looking at her calm and stately appearance.
Allow your anxiety to chatter in the background, without losing focus on what you are trying to manifest. Don’t make war with your anxiety. It can be a tremendous asset when there is a deadline to meet, or an opportunity that needs to be acted upon swiftly. The key is not to make the rabbit (anxiety) the center of your focus. Be like the Queen of Pentacles and keep your eyes on the prize, symbolized by the coin.
The Queen of Pentacles also reminds you to ground yourself in the pleasures of the physical world. Acknowledge the warmth of your home, the flavors of the food you are eating, the green spirits calling from the trees and the smell of the raindrops misting outside. Experience life’s beauty with your senses. Be like the Queen of Pentacles and enjoy what you have, while still holding space for what is currently manifesting. The Queen of Pentacles assures you that your efforts are ripening and blooming in their perfect timing. She is confident that you will know when the time is right to act. For now, relax in your garden. Be content. The Queen of Pentacles promises financial success and security despite your greatest worries.
If the Queen of Pentacles represents a person, she is an earthy woman who is secure financially, understands money and can open doorways for you. She is dependable, faithful and realistic about life. She can also advise you in long-term investments and financial planning. Queens can be mature individuals of any gender who wield strong feminine power.
