Ten of Pentacles represents a sense of security and a certain standing within your community. This card can also signify prosperity for both yourself and your family. The wealth represented in this card goes beyond material things and indicates a rich connection to family, community, and the legacy that you have fostered.

The Moon has long been associated with intuition, feminine mystery, and the unknown, the half-seen. And so it is in the tarot card of the same name: here we see, in the Rider-Waite image, a dog and a wolf howling at the full moon. Before them, a crayfish emerges from the waters of a pool while behind them a path leads back over the mountains, to the world beyond. This symbolizes that however fearful are the manifestations of our inner consciousness, we can be safe in the knowledge that there is a return route open for us. On such a return route we may tread with the new knowledge we have gained beneath the light of The Moon.

The Queen of Wands sits comfortably and firmly on her throne; in the traditional Rider Waite image she holds her Wand in one hand and a sunflower in the other, and a black cat sits before her, symbolizing protection. The Queen looks calmly out at us and the landscape around her, deeply receptive and appreciative of the good things that life offers her.

The Eight of Wands represents movement and grounding. The Wands depicted on the card are heading to the earth, and the hills and structure in the background of the image emphasize this. The Fire inherent in the suit has found its focus and become directed and the result is cohesion and completion.

In the Four of Swords, we see the image of a knight’s tomb in a church. The scene is a peaceful one: three of the Swords are engraved in stone on the wall behind the tomb, while the fourth makes up part of the tomb on which the figure of the knight lies. The scene depicted in the stained glass window is that of Christ healing a follower who kneels before him. This, then, is not a card of death, but one of rest and regeneration.

This card is all about keeping focused and staying determined to reach your goals. Where there is a will there is a way. If things have been slow and predictable recently, make yourself ready for some changes ahead because things are about to become a lot busier for you. Just remember to enjoy the process and don't get too ahead of yourself.
