King of Pentacles

_{*The Kings of the Court Cards represent the highest level of maturity and capability ,and do not need to follow the traditional gender role}

This King bleeds ambition and determination. He’s represented as a bull and is tenacious about achieving his goals. He also attracts luck and opportunities, then successfully acts upon them in a very focused and disciplined manner. TCB in the truest sense of the saying. He’s earned his abundance and security, knows his self worth, and carries himself with confidence.

They are very giving and generous with their time and resources, and they enjoy and are comfortable in positions of leadership, which make them very comforting individuals to be around. They are the sort of person that makes you feel safe and like everything is under control and handled.

The King of Pentacles in a crossed condition, either by a reversal or because of proximity to a detrimental card, is someone to steer clear of. Con men, emotionally vacant workaholics, shallow name dropping social climbers, cold sociopathic CEO’s, unemployed fuckboi hobosexuals who won’t even do dishes (fuckboi’s can also be any gender), the disloyal and unsupportive, the low key an/or dangerously controlling, blackmailers etc

This King aligns with the element Earth and the signs and placements of Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn.

<sub>A note on the Court Cards

Court Cards do not need to align with their traditional gender rolls, and to read otherwise is extremely limiting in my opinion but this is largely intuitive so do what works for you. It’s better summed up with levels of maturity and capability being high to low in my opinion.

Court Cards are commonly interpreted as either being examples of one’s higher self and the current need to adopt those qualities, or other people in the life of the querent who possess the cards qualities. Think outside the box though as they could take on any number of pre assigned or spontaneous meanings such as deity, Saints/Lwa, specific co-workers, specific family members, archtypes, pets, ideas and concepts, specific situations etc.</sub>
