King of Pentacles

Tarot Card Meaning

Introduction

The King of Pentacles is the highest ranking court card. He is usually an older man in a position of authority. He has achieved much in his lifetime and is now enjoying the fruits of his labors. His ruling elements are fire of earth, making him smolder along quite nicely. He has reached the stage of life where he cares not a jot what other people think of him. He does what he likes and enjoys what he does.

Imagery

The King of Pentacles sits facing the viewer with his head turned slightly to his left. He is dressed in a voluminous black robe which is embroidered all over with grape-bearing leafy vines. At his neck he wears an earthy orange scarf. His crown has a headband of braided green fabric, and the crown itself sports three red roses. In his right hand he holds a gold scepter, in his left a golden coin. His throne has four ornate carvings of bulls’ heads. He sits in a lush garden with his foot resting on a carved boar’s head. Interestingly, it appears that the King is wearing armor beneath his robe, suggesting that he retains aspects of the Knight in his personality. Behind him is a stone wall and a castle. The sky is yellow.

Personality

This King is a traditionalist. He follows his forebears, sure in the knowledge that the old ways are the best. This means that he has a somewhat strained relationship with his children who, like most young people are progressive and intent on embracing the new. The King of Pentacles would prefer them to do as he says. He is generally a jolly fellow; he enjoys the fact that he has plenty of money and that he has reached his position by dint of hard work. He loves his family deeply, is proud of his home, and all the material things his endeavors have provided for them.

He takes his responsibilities seriously and people know that he will give them a fair hearing. However, anything outside of his sphere of experience will make him uncomfortable. Increasingly he finds that the world is moving on, leaving him feeling a little left behind.

If on a budget, then make sure to set some money aside for leisure and pleasure. This king really enjoys eating out now and then.

Love

The King of Pentacles is a faithful and reliable husband. He likes to spend money on his nearest and dearest and may come across as a little sexist. He’s not doing it to be unpleasant, it’s just the way he was brought up. It’s possible to gently re-educate him. He loves a bit of romance, and surprising his love with a weekend away or a token of his appreciation is one of his pleasures.

If you are in the market for a romance and this card shows up, expect to be wooed by an older man.
