The King of Pentacles sits confidently on a richly decorated throne adorned with carvings of bulls, grapes, and vines—symbols of prosperity and power.

The King of Pentacles represents achievement, financial success, and responsible leadership. You’ve worked hard and built a stable foundation. Now is a time of reward, generosity, and wise stewardship. This card encourages confidence, patience, and using your success to uplift others.
This card signifies a dependable, supportive partner who values commitment and long-term stability. In a relationship, security and shared values are prioritized. If single, someone mature, successful, and grounded may soon enter your life—or you may be embodying these qualities yourself.
Financial success, investments, or business ventures are flourishing. You are in a position to enjoy and share your wealth, and your approach to money is mature and grounded. This is a time to build long-term security and consider how you can create generational wealth or support your community.
You’re thriving in your career through discipline, strategic planning, and reliability. The King of Pentacles favors positions of leadership, entrepreneurship, or management. It’s a time to own your authority, make wise decisions, and guide others from a place of integrity.
Reversed, the King of Pentacles can indicate greed, stubbornness, or misuse of power. You may be overly focused on materialism or hesitant to share your success. Alternatively, financial instability or a lack of structure could be undermining your goals. Realign with values of trust, generosity, and long-term vision.
A relationship may be overly focused on money, appearances, or control. One partner may be emotionally distant or using material means to compensate for lack of intimacy. Reassess whether love and mutual respect are truly present.
There may be financial setbacks, poor investments, or overreliance on wealth as a measure of success. Take responsibility for your resources, avoid risky decisions, and cultivate a sense of inner worth beyond material assets.
You might feel blocked by rigid structures, an overbearing boss, or your own perfectionism. There could also be fear of failure or mismanagement. Shift your mindset from control to conscious leadership.
True success is not measured by what you accumulate—but by what you sustain, build, and share with wisdom.
