Ace of Pentacles

A hand formed from solid earth highlights the Pentacles suit’s association with the earth element. However, as the first card, it carries an inherent instability—clouds surrounding the hand and coin reflect this quality.

The lily symbolizes purity. Earth, representing reality and materiality, rarely remains “pure,” as purity arises from simple affection, while the element of earth embodies solidified desire—desire that’s measured and valued, thus straying from purity. The Ace of Pentacles is relatively pure, like a newborn free of worldly values. It’s akin to saying, “I like you, so I spend money—not for anything in return, just because I like you.” Though material in form, the intention is pure.
