Five of Pentacles

Five of Earth · a card from the Eutheum deck

Upright

hardship, scarcity, isolation

Reversed

recovery, help arriving

Upright meaning

Hardship, scarcity, a feeling of being left out, or a material or health crisis. The Five of Earth speaks of a hard time in which it is easy to overlook help. Like the two freezing Moglins in the blizzard who don't notice the warm light right beside them, the card reminds you that support is closer than you think.

Reversed meaning

Coming out of a crisis, accepting help, the situation improving. The worst is passing.

Love and relationships

Feeling rejected, being lonely together, a hard time in the relationship. Reversed: finding each other again, support.

Work and money

Money problems, losing a job, uncertainty. Reversed: improvement, a new source of income, help from outside.

The card's advice

Look around and ask for help. The light is right beside you.

In Natuland

Two freezing Moglins in torn cloaks trudge through a blizzard on a mountain path. Right beside them a stained-glass window glows brightly in the rock, and behind it is warmth they haven't noticed yet.

Symbols on the card

• Snow and torn cloaks: a hard time and scarcity.
• A stained-glass window with five discs: help that is closer than it seems.
• Travellers sticking together: support in hard times.
• Crystals in a distant mountain: a home you can return to.
