Tarot Card Description & Meanings

The Knight of Pentacles shows an armored man on a horse, holding a Pentacle, who is stationary, standing still. He is waiting for the right moment to take action. This is a thoughtful man, who is compassionate and easy-going. He may appear immature, but he is a responsible person. He has not yet developed the strengths of his character to win through.

This card represents a need to learn more, to be more creative and to see projects through until they are completed.

General Meaning

Receiving the Knight of Pentacles lets you know that you can have what you want - security, abundance, wealth - because you are so unwavering in your efforts to achieve this. However, it also advises you to be aware that the journey is as important as the destination. If you are so narrowly focused on your end goal you may upset others along the way, particularly if you also tarnish others with the Knight of Pentacles perfectionist streak, so that they are judged against unrealistic expectations.
