In the original Rider-Waite deck, the Ace of Pentacles card has the feeling of spring and hopefulness. There is a feeling of a garden in bloom. There are no clouds in the sky and there is a clear path forward with an interesting destination that lies ahead.
This card is not meant to be like a fool setting off into the wilderness. It is a solid, middle-class person strolling down their own front walkway to check the mail and probably on the way to finding that there is an unexpected check in the mail.
When the Ace of Pentacles lands in your reading, it is time to ask yourself if you feel worthy of all the blessings that the universe would like to bring to your doorstep. It is also a reminder to count your blessings. This includes both the big ones that come from out of nowhere and the simple ones that lay in your own garden.
Ace of Pentacles Love Meaning
Your relationship is moving to the next level and a partnership involving money may be involved. That could mean marriage, sharing a home together or raising a child.
It is a card of prosperity that is derived from stable, hard work. The work is rewarded with unexpected blessings. You will still need to toil in the garden but many hands will make light work of it and the universe will arrange helpful boosts to the partnership.
Ace of Pentacles Money Meaning
You could receive Divine help in the money department or be handed an opportunity that seems to come out of nowhere. Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth and don’t be too proud to take unexpected income when it is offered.
This is one of the best cards to get. In a money spread, it means good things are on their way to you. Don’t lose hope. Keep believing that the universe supports your efforts because it does.
Ace of Pentacles Health Meaning
Ace of Pentacles reminds you to stop and smell the roses. It is a clarion call to enjoy the beauty around you and to set your hand to creating beauty yourself by starting with your environment.
It is also a call to tend to your own garden. We often get caught up in the cares of the world and we forget to take care of ourselves.
This may be a gentle nudge to create more time for meditation or more ritual. It may even encourage you to physically go out and create a garden to beautify your home or local community that does things to make a positive visual impact so that you feel more prosperous, abundant and healthy.
Aces always call us to turn over a new leaf and re-emphasize a certain aspect of our life. It is never a bad time to take better care of ourselves.
Ace of Pentacles Yes/No Meaning

Ace of Pentacles Reversed Meaning
If this card lands in your Reading reversed, it means that you have been granted opportunities but you have turned them down. It may also mean that you don’t feel worthy enough to receive the divine gifts that are trying to bless you. Your refusal to accept good things has you stalled and bitter. The way forward is clear. Open your heart and receive all of the gifts that are trying to come to you.
It could mean that you have a mentor or someone in your life who would help you if you asked. However, you insist on going it alone and refusing to see the good that is available all around you and in your life.
This card could also mean that you have been stingy with the gifts that you have available to you. Perhaps it is time for you to take on an apprentice or mentor someone else so that the abundance is available around you to everyone.
