Five of Pentacles

Do you feel alone? Empty inside? The Five of Pentacles can denote difficulties with confidence and self esteem. You may feel emotionally drained. You have nothing else to give, and feel at an all time low.

This card can also denote money problems, poverty, or cash flow issues. On a romantic level you may be feeling left behind, perhaps an ex has moved on and has now found happiness with someone else, while you are still alone.


This phase will pass, the next few weeks may not be ideal but if you make an extra effort you can climb out of this feeling of doom and gloom. Remember to focus on the good things in life. These things may seem insignificant compared to what you feel you have lost, but baby steps are needed.

Every day give thanks for ten things. Watch that list grow. When we direct energy into what we love the universe delivers more.


Also spend some time considering how you came to the point where you now find yourself. Did you ignore red flags? Did you expect an outcome that was never offered or even possible?

Recognizing your role on the path that lead you here will help you to avoid returning to this dark place.
