I created this image to illustrate the scarcity thinking associated with the 5 of pentacles.
Material instability leads to catastrophic thinking that has us living under the bridge at some point.
The number 5: unstable, change, connecting heaven and earth, the 5th element.
Pentacles: the material world, anything we can experience with our senses, money, resources, practical, long lasting.
On the positive side, the 5 of pentacles can point to our ability to surpass the heaviness of the material world, if only we will change.
