What positive results have you manifested in your life?
Have you ever written down your achievements to review how much you’ve done? Do you ever stop to look around and appreciate all that you’ve manifested?’
The farmer depicted on the card is taking a break from working in the fields. His crop isn’t quite ready for harvest, but he surveys the work that he did with a sense of pride. He did this himself, and he sees the results he created. He leans on his garden tool, much as the Hermit leans on his staff of wisdom. The field has been the farmer’s sanctuary of self-awareness and exploration. He sees the fruits of his labors, not just a finished job. These accomplishments are tangible proof of what he’s manifested. The farmer allows himself to stop being productive long enough to truly appreciate his progress. He is humble, yet he possesses the healthy sense of self-esteem that only hard work can engender.
Are you able to recognize the progress you’ve made in your life? Begin by writing five life accomplishments you’ve fought hard to achieve. Recall five things that you could have given up on, if you took the easy way out. These five things proved you can succeed! What accomplishments illustrate that you can persevere? What achievements are you most proud of? Take your time and think… Got your list?
Now look at the items on the list as if you were a stranger seeing them for the first time. Remember the phase in your life before you achieved this. Do you remember what life looked like then? What fears did you challenge to get to this point? What was going through your head at that time? Take pride in each item on your list. Thank your body for not quitting and your mind for not breaking. Thank your heart for mending itself through the painful times. Thank your spirit for raising you up, over the obstacles. This is what you manifested, and your Self needs to be thanked for it. To continue making progress, you must clearly see (and appreciate) what you’ve already manifested.
You can achieve any positive result you want for your future. Just look at your list, you’ve done it before!
The Seven of Pentacles always implies that there has been a great deal already accomplished, but that there is still more work to do.
You have gotten over the hump. The tough work of tilling the soil and planting the seeds of your success have taken root. Now you just need to be consistent and gently tend your garden until harvest time. Keep working at it and you will succeed!

New Relationship
The Seven of Pentacles emphasizes a clear message: “take your time!” You are on the right track, but events are still changing, growing, and developing. Take it slow. Be present and enjoy the moments you are creating with your new love interest, rather than getting too far ahead of yourself with future fears or plans. Stay present.
