The Queen of Pentacles as Working Mother
I see the Queen of Pentacles as the ultimate working mother. She really can work full-time while managing a home and family. And she does it so effortlessly! In fact, she has time to sit and enjoy her garden. But here is her secret, even while sitting she is contemplating what is next, which new project she should take on, and how her portfolio is going.
Pentacles represent material goods; possessions and money. This suit is aligned with the earth and being grounded, common sense, and mindfulness are all parts of this alignment. Earthiness is also related to sensuality and fertility which goes beyond just sex. The Queen of Pentacles is comfortable in her body and with who she is.

Triple Goddess Tarot
Your Inner Queen of Pentacles

Triple Goddess Tarot
As I discussed with the other Queens (Wands, Cups, Swords), the Queen of Pentacles can represent a real person in your life. If so, they are likely a mentor to you, someone who helps you in your professional career or teaches you necessary skills. Don’t necessarily look at people in power; this Queen especially likes to work behind the scenes to make things happen.
This card can also refer to the traits within yourself that represent the Queen of Pentacles’ energy. Getting up an hour early to plan your day channels this Queen’s energy, as does doing a quick pick-up at night, setting out your kid’s clothes, and packing lunches so that mornings are easier to navigate. But she doesn’t necessarily do it all herself! She manages everything through delegation, explaining clearly what result she expects (the laundry folded and put away before dinner) and then allowing her delegate space to do the work.
The Queen of Pentacles and Sharing

The Dark Side of the Queen of Pentacles
You can be too organized sometimes, so on top of things that creativity and spontaneity are strangled. Because even when she is sitting in her garden she is planning and considering, there isn’t much space just to be and enjoy. Planning every minute of your life can mean forcing yourself into mental states that don’t exist. For example, I write first thing in the morning. If I try to force myself to write in the evening or early afternoon I draw a complete blank. Sometimes the organizational energy of this Queen is such that she expects you to be creative when your brain just wants to take a break.
What do you think of the Queen of Pentacles? How do you work with her energy?
What Clients are Saying about Sophrosyne Tarot
I was advised to ask open-ended questions instead of predictive questions which I thought was helpful because I never would have known if it weren’t for the reader. The reader provided the reading along with some advice too so the entire reading was very thorough and explained in an understandable manner.
Everything said was accurate and helpful for me to identify my flaws in order to grow as a person. I have learned a lot about tarot and what it does to help me.
Greetings Sophrosyne, I resonate with the middle two descriptions of this card, and I have a mentor that this fits with all of them. I aspire to find my tribe of these Queens. Thank you for sharing. Sending lots of love and light. Jaime
I have always been drawn to pentacles and the Queen of Pentacles…well, let’s just say, I can relate. I have been known to plan when I should be resting, taking in the scenery, or paying attention to someone/something else. I also sometimes get the bug to plan and/or clean up at night, when I should be winding down. Oof, do I feel seen here today!
I don’t have a clue about cards but the Queen of Pentacles is so interesting. In some ways I see me in her!
