Summary:
The Queen of Pentacles takes us further into the realm of our sense of security and connectedness to the world. She is there for everyone, always available, reliable, home-loving, willing to do anything for her family and all without any fuss. Think about what this archetypal earth-mother makes you feel. Do you identify with her at all? Do you admire her, envy her, or are you totally immune to feeling anything? Whatever your reaction, remember that the Queen of Pentacles represents a part of you. She points a finger at you and says, "look within, find your nurturing side".

She is the Empress in her guise as Mother Earth. She showers her creations with lots of TLC and it doesn't matter whether they are actual children or projects and activities. You're seeking practical, tangible solutions. You use your wealth and abilities to empower yourself and others.

Gaiety, without pretext or hidden ends, is painted on the face of this young girl. She seeks company and human contact, and is willing to give the same in exchange. She is ready to give and also ready to assert herself.

In the suit of Pentacles, the Queen is a little rebellious. Her ability to disregard things is not in harmony with the rest of the suit, but it is precisely for this reason that she manages to communicate and deal with others well. Her roots are strong like the earth, but her look and thoughts are light, never tired from troubles.

She is nurturing, practical, and responsible, and she is devoted to caring for those around her, such as her family or community. Due to her resourcefulness, she typically has attained material security, which enables her to be giving and to help others, for she knows that generosity does not deplete her. Rather, it makes way for the endless abundance of Mother Nature to flow through her. In addition, the Queen of Pentacles is sensual and sensuous. She is in touch with her physicality and with the material world, and she is at one with nature.
