Your Chosen Card – Seven of Patens Reversed Salem Deck
When reversed, the Seven of Pentacles suggests that you are feeling apprehension about financial security. Perhaps you are worried that there will not be a sufficient return on your investment of time, resources, or money. The problem is that investments typically take time to mature and cannot be rushed. Impatience can result in wasted resources, failed projects, or missed opportunities. You need to assess your situation realistically and follow principles of sound fiscal management if you wish to succeed. If youre not sure about what to do, get advice from an expert consultant. Daydreaming or focusing on irrelevant matters will not help you to reassess the situation that is causing anxiety. The planet Saturn associated with this card implies that you need to keep your nose to the grindstone. You will get as much from your project as you put into it; no pain, no gain.

Tarot Triumphs: Then, bearing the question in mind, study the cards and see what the combination of the three brings to your mind. Speak when you’re ready. This is where you really take the plunge! Remember that it’s the connection between you, the querent, and the cards that generates the reading. Use your knowledge of Tarot as a foundation; try to put preexisting judgments about the person out of your mind, and allow the story to surface. Note that we haven’t set up any time parameters, so you are looking at the triad of cards as an entity, rather than seeing them as past, present, or future. (We will come to that shortly, both later in this chapter and in chapter six.) It’s fine to ask a question or two if you need to. For instance, if the Chariot turns up, you might want to find out if the person has any travel plans in mind, since not every appearance of the Chariot will indicate travel, even though it can be one strong association with that card.
