Seven of Pentacles
Element: Earth
This card is inspired by the classic Chinese animated series Calabash Brothers. From a single gourd seed sprang seven colorful gourd children, each with unique powers to vanquish evil. In this snake-year limited design, the concept evolves from the original Rider–Waite card—seven gourd brothers each holding a pentacle, awaiting the fruits of their labor. The Seven of Pentacles symbolizes investment and patience. It is closely tied to time, reflecting both past efforts and future expectations. It represents a period of review and anticipation.
