The 2 of Pentacles represent balance, handling the ups and downs of life, and the capability of dealing with everything on your plate. While the 2 Of Swords is about handling internal struggle, the 2 Of Pentacles focuses more on balancing responsibilities and prioritizing what needs to be done. The Pentacles in tarot are one of 4 suits in the Minor Arcana. Typically the Pentacles, or “coins” suit deal with money, finances, hard work and material wealth. The Pentacles suit in tarot is associated with the suit of diamonds in traditional playing card decks. The similarity is obvious, with diamonds being a sign of affluence, status, wealth and success. Pentacles are also tied to the element earth of the 4 elements.
2 Of Pentacles Description
The 2 Of Pentacles depict a young man dancing on the beach. He juggles two coins in both hands, focused on maintaining balance between dancing and juggling at the same time. This is an indication of how important balance is in all aspects of our life. An infinity sign surrounds both of the coins of the youth, representing his capability of handling an unlimited amount of problems, situations, or tasks at once. The young man seems blissfully unaware of his surroundings, completely engaged in what he's doing.
Behind the young man we can see two ships, making their way over rough and choppy water. The boats and water are just another representation of the rollercoaster we experience as we go through life. Neither of the two ships have crashed, and with proper focus and attention, they will continue to survive the intense waves.
