The Three of Pentacles is the traditional card of craftspeople and other artisans. It shows someone doing what they love well enough to be supported by it. In the most general sense this card points to success in business. You are ready to take on work that honors your ideals, that creates a product both useful and beautiful, and that earns you respect and recognition in your community.

Even more important than the end result, however, the Three of Pentacles speaks to the dedication and perserverance needed to master a skill or craft. Well-thought-out plans are needed; stay practical in carrying them out. This is not a card about waiting for a lucky break; be prepared for hard work! Your reward will be in seeing the beautiful results of your labor take shape in your hands.
