La Tempérance (14)

Tarot Card Meanings >

de La Tempérance dans la tarot de Marseille


This is a lovely card full of positive meanings; interestingly, these positive meanings can also spell disaster for the unwary. The Page of Pentacles symbolizes someone who is ready to take their first step into the wider world; they are full of energy and passion, ready to take on the world’s problems and discover solutions that no one else has considered. However, all their past successes may have left them unprepared for the inevitable experience of failure and disappointment.

Many young adults experience crushing disappointment when skills and talents that had been celebrated at home are not applauded by new friends, coworkers, peers, or teachers. This uncomfortable experience must be handled with considerable grace and maturity. People can learn to reevaluate their abilities and see their shortcomings without becoming neurotic in the process, but this can take time.

When this card appears, it can be a very positive indication of a fruitful course of action. Readers must be cautious of interpreting this as a sure sign of success, however; the positive outcomes suggested here might just be the growth that comes from painful learning experiences.

Interpretation

Keep in mind that this minor arcana is associated with beginnings. Your ideas are clear enough and your vision of your goals is precise enough for you to get started on projects that matter to you. Also be aware that this card indicates your labors will be rewarded with material success.

After a period of doubt, you now have new energy that will allow you to climb the ladder. In the professional field, this could, for example, mean you have a well-thought out career plan. Your self-denial means you won't become discouraged by obstacles, while your strategic thinking qualities will make your forward progress easier. You have a deeply pragmatic nature and you know exactly what you have to do to make your vision concrete. Remember, however, that drawing the Page of Pentacles means that your quest is only just beginning. So, take advantage of his thirst for learning to gain knowledge and advance and shape your goals more precisely.

The Page of Pentacles is not associated with empathy, sensitivity and communication. Nevertheless, if it is present in your draw, it means that your loved ones will be able to count on your great sense of responsibility and your emotional stability. Your traditional view of love is extremely reassuring for the person who shares your life. Above all, you want them to feel safe, and you work so that they can enjoy the most beautiful things the world has to offer. Just remember sometimes to listen to them more carefully. Your partner needs to feel loved and reassured from an emotional point of view as well as material. It is this balance that will ensure the sustainability of your relationship.

•You are in a unique place right now. What is most valuable to you, and how can you use it as a ballast connecting you to your essential nature in times of change?
