Seven of Pentacles: Seeing it through
The Seven of Pentacles is a work-in-progress card. Work, and balance of energies.
The seven speaks to those times in a project where you stop to celebrate the progress you’ve made so far, and gauge how much work is ahead of you. It’s an encouraging card, particularly if you’re feeling a bit burdened and worn down, for it shows you the way through.
Celebration and calibration. If you have them both, and apply them at intervals throughout your project, you will maintain the energy, motivation, and perspective to see it through.
If you focus entirely on what you’ve accomplished thus far, and stop there, then the project will founder. Focus entirely on the goal, however, and you may well be overcome by how much remains! An even balance between the two will keep you motivated: seeing how far you’ve come gives you energy; gauging how far remains, and how best to achieve it uses that energy. The two together assure success.
Well, almost. Nothing in life is guaranteed!
Celebration, Calibration. Harvest.
What gains are you celebrating right now? How will you use the energy of that celebration to reap the harvest of your completed project?
