What a busy day lay ahead.
This is work of the systematic kind, doing what needs to be done and getting on with it. The 8 of Pentacles offers no play time.
Apart from the skill level required to do the job, there is also an ease with which you can accomplish it. There is a familiarity to the work and the day, a routine by which you can set your clock.
This could very well be a day for baking cakes, or planting vegetables – whatever requires uniformed regularity.
And yet there’s another side to the 8 of Pentacles from the Tarot of the New Vision, and that is the other guy in the card, the one we don’t normally see.
He offers us the chance to do something different with our day, to change it up a little. To try something different – to get out of our comfort zones and be creative in our work. He also gives us the chance of a break.
Those of you with visions of Freddie Mercury in a short skirt and pink lipstick singing, “I want to break free..” will know exactly what I’m getting at. The monotony of the everyday. Day in, day out – same old, same old.
Here’s your chance to break the mold and do something different. You still have to do some work, but you get permission from this 8 of Pentacles to do it a little differently.
Here are some of your choices:
- Delegate some of your workload
- Put your pen down, and get your paintbrushes out.
So, the question is, what will you do differently in your work today?

Hi Kate!
My take on the card: Do your work like if you where creating a unique masterpiece.
Nice! It reminds me of the zen philosophy, that when you’re doing anything, be fully present in it. Even when you’re cleaning the floor. Or sculpting rock
