The card depicted here is the Ace of Pentacles from the Robin Wood deck. It’s a beautiful deck and well worth looking out for.

When the Ace of Pentacles appears in a reading, like the other Aces, it tells me that something is about to happen. It’s a card of a new beginning, espcially in regard to work and money. Think of the Pentacle as being a coin, or currency, and you are off to a good start. In the Ace, a job offer or promotion might be in the wings, extra money may be coming to you, or an opportunity to make some extra money.

Let’s move onto the Two of Pentacles.

The Ace of Cups reassures that the potential for happiness and emotional fulfilment is available. The seeds of love and contentment have been sown and now it’s time to wait for nature to make the seeds sprout.

All the Aces in Tarot represent potential - something new and exciting on the verge of manifestation.  Fresh energy is about to burst into your life and shake things up. This card bodes well for your health, your career, your creative projects - in fact, it’s just a pretty good card all round!  I’d be very happy to see it anywhere in a spread.  If you have asked about love, this card indicates passion - it’s pretty phallic, don’t you think?

If you want to get really esoteric about it, the Ace of Wands contains all the other Minor Arcana cards within it.  It is the ultimate potential! It is linked with the Sun and is the masculine counterpart to the feminine Ace of Cups, which is linked with the Moon. All of the Aces are found within Kether on the Tree of Life.
