Upright Meaning:

It shouldn’t surprise you that the Ten of Pentacles upright in a money and career reading is very positive. This is a great omen for your future in business. You’ve put in the work towards planning, thinking long-term, and maintaining action and focus as you move forward. The future is a well-earned reward when you pull this Tarot card upright!

The Ten of Pentacles can sometimes foretell an unexpectedly large amount of money coming your way. Maybe you’re getting a surprise inheritance, or your raise this year will be higher than it’s ever been. I advise that you invest that money wisely and since you’ve pulled the Ten of Pentacles, make an investment for your long-term future and/or your family.

Reversed Meaning:

The Ten of Pentacles reversed in a money, and career reading is a bad omen for your business ventures. This foretells bankruptcy and debt, so something isn’t going to work out with a large investment or loan you’re working to pay off.

This could also be pointing to a family matter of money. Maybe you expected more from your inheritance when a wealthy relative passed, but you were disappointed in the number when it came to fruition. This act of “counting your chickens before they hatched” may have led you to already make a large purchase you now can’t afford.

Along the same lines, you may receive money from an inheritance, but it will come with conflict from other relatives who feel they deserve more than you.

Finally, the Ten of Pentacles may represent you or someone you know presenting themselves as having more money than they actually do. This results in living beyond their means and digging themselves deeper and deeper into financial ruin.
