Fairy Tarot - Two of Pentacles
msesheta
The image portrayed here is of a glade in the forest
with a large mushroom. A Fairy wearing a red pointed
beret leaning over the red top of the mushroom is
kissing a lovely young girl, also one of the enchanted
people.
The picture could easily be entitled: "Idyll in the
forest", as it is so enchanting!
Observing closely however, it can be seen that this is
the suit of Bells that identify this card and we know
they refer to the element Earth and to the world of
work and business. This little scene therefore, even
if delicate, is in its entirety rather out of place
and altogether in the wrong context.
The young Fairy therefore is a little absent-minded, a
little unaware. He is not intending to do any harm but
is obviously neglecting his work and obligations to
instead court his beloved. This clearly is not a
negative card if it appears in your oracle. In fact,
together with other positive cards, it could refer to
small annoyances getting in the way of favourable
events.
It could also announce the arrival of a letter or a
telephone call, that could alert you to something
important.
Card upright: delay of a project or a payment or the
conclusion of a transaction.
Reversed: small troubles coming; advice against
gambling or placing bets of any type.
