Ten of Pentacles ~ Insatiability & Rampant Consumerism! (Friday)
Veronica Noir is a lover of Tarot, cats and men in their early 20′s. Veronica spends her days eating coffee cheesecake, spying on neighbors and just being her fabulous self! Let’s see what she has to say about the Ten of Pentacles…
Beware of those who hold up certain “values” as if they were universal.
The lady in this Ten of Pentacles card is holding up the picture of a giant house as if to say “look! This is what we all should strive for – an orange mansion with strategically placed shrubbery!”
But do you notice that this domesticity-pusher is wearing an apron? It’s because she is serving an “ideal” that does not serve her. But before I go all sociology student on you….
Lets take an even closer look at this card. What is actually being held up and presented is a giant round hole – a hole that needs to be filled.
You can stuff this “hole” with all kinds of things – food, orange mansions, money, material possessions, a hunky spouse, pointless busy-ness, or my favorite one….lots of sex!
But like a Sigmund Freud nightmare, this hole is insatiable and always hungers for more. What to do? What to do?
Be a Laura Croft hole raider and find out as much as you can about your “hole” – ooh, that sounds dirty! But really, notice what you habitually try to stuff yourself with. For me, its coffee cheesecake and stiletto boots, but for you maybe it’s jumbo jets and hookers. Don’t judge yourself.
In the comments below, give me the dirty deets…what do you strive to attain in the hopes it will make you feel “whole” and satisfied?
