Upright Meaning:
If you pull the Seven of Pentacles upright in a career and money reading: good for you! You’ve found a gig that is going to pay off long-term. You may have a good relationship with the owners of the business where they appreciate you and recognize your hard work and potential.
This type of relationship could certainly pay off for your long-term career. You could become part owner someday, and you may become the director of operations. Whatever it is you want, you’re on the right track. Keep doing what you’re doing!
This could also refer to your side hustle if you have one, and depending on where it falls in your reading. Take note of the cards around it as well and remember your question specifically. Was it about your side hustle or your full-time job?
If this reading is about your side hustle or the card is falling in a place for your side hustle: that’s going to do well for you. You should make sure you continue to devote time and energy to your project because the future is bright for financial success! You may even want to cut back on your full-time job to focus more on the side hustle.
Reversed Meaning:
If you pull the Seven of Pentacles reversed in a career and money reading: it’s time to move on. You may enjoy yourself at work, you may even make good money, but this job isn’t in line with your long-term potential. Whether it means the company will eventually go under, or it means there’s only so far you can rise in the company, it doesn’t matter: the job isn’t right for your long-term goals, and you should find something else.
Pulling the Seven of Pentacles reversed in a career and money reading is pointing out that you’re putting in more than you’re getting out of your job. We have a tendency to glamorous “the grind” in American culture as if there is honor in being overworked and underappreciated or paid. This card reversed is calling the bluff of the “grind” culture.
You should reap what you sow; you should get rewarded for the hard work you put in. If you are not, move on. There are people who will treat you as you deserve to be treated. There are jobs that will reward people who go above and beyond.
