Three of Pentacles (Reversed)

The tarot card of the day is the Three of Pentacles in reverse.

The Three of Pentacles shows the stonemason working on a portion of a building under construction. Two architects surround him; one holds the blueprints while the other holds up the design plan. They seem to be discussing how much further along the work is and what needs to be done next.

The exquisite details suggest that all are skilled professionals. All parties appear to respect each other's expertise and experience. There is a harmony of old ways and new methods, which suggests that this project will be completed in an efficient manner.

In general, the Three of Pentacles represents your work ethic, talent, and innovation. You have a gift of accomplishing great things because of your natural ability to work well with others. You may even receive recognition for your accomplishments soon.

However, a reversal of this card means you need to slow down and take time to think through your plans. You are like a lawyer who thinks she knows her case inside and out but doesn't realize that she hasn't considered all the possible outcomes.

This ignorance can lead to a big blunder if you don't take the time to consider everything before making a final decision.

Missing the Mark in Your Thinking

The Three of Pentacles reversed signifies that something is lacking. Perhaps you've been too hasty in your decisions or you haven't taken enough time to look at all the options available to you.

For example, if you're planning an event, you may have forgotten to invite someone who would add value to it. Or, if you're hiring a new lawyer, you might have overlooked the fact that he has a bad reputation.

What can you do? It will be best if you move fast so you can get back in the game as soon as possible. What are you missing here? Can you think of a new angle? Is there anything you should add or change?

If you find that you still want to go ahead with your plans, then you'll need to take extra caution. Make sure you double-check everything.

Restart and Recreate

The reversed Three of Pentacles can also indicate a failure to learn from mistakes and a lack of growth.

Perhaps you are being overconfident about your abilities and ideas. But the truth is, your past achievements aren't helping you see the bigger picture right now.

Sometimes, life throws us curveballs. We feel as though we're doing fine until suddenly we discover that we've made a mistake. That's when we start to question ourselves and wonder why we didn't see it coming.

This is where the reversed Three of Pentacles comes into play. When you feel confident and ready to take action, but you find that you've overlooked something important, it can throw you off balance.

The first thing you can do is to accept that this is the situation you're currently in. Regretting and obsessing over past mistakes won't help you.

If the old tactics aren't working, maybe it's time to try something different. Adjusting is part of learning, so embrace the change and keep moving forward.

You have nothing to prove and no one to convince. The only thing you have to do is to put your mind to work and follow your intuition.

Here's to a New Beginning!

In general, the Three of Pentacles represents your desire for glory. You have a strong sense of purpose and a burning desire to succeed. However, a reversal of the Three Of Pentacles suggests that you must manage your perfectionism.

Stop becoming sidetracked by unimportant things. For instance, if you're trying to choose the right lawyer, you shouldn't let your emotions cloud your judgment. Instead, think logically and objectively. Don't allow your feelings to influence your decision-making process. Instead, let the Three of Pentacles guide you toward determining what is most important.

Think about what you really want. Are you willing to sacrifice everything to get it? Or, are you just going through the motions because you think you have to?

Remember, you don't always have to do everything perfectly. Sometimes, you just have to start somewhere.
