This post is intended to be a mini Queen of Pentacles Tarot Guide. It is important to mention that the longer you work with the cards the more you will discover how they speak to you. For example, the Queen of Pentacles does have a theme and traditional meaning but I recommend leaving “space” for the card to speak to you. Over time, you may discover that the card represents unique insights or themes for you personally.
Suit of Pentacles Summary

Queen of Pentacles Tarot – Upright Meaning
- As a person
- Capricorn, Taurus, Virgo
- Earth + Water
- The Queen of Pentacles is resourceful, stoic, intelligent, practical, loving, entrepreneurial, nurturing, and motherly. She is a creative business person who can also be generous. She has a strong sense of responsibility – she does what she says she is going to do. She rules the realm of manifestation and is master of all things related to the physical plane. Because she has mastered wealth she enjoys indulging in material things and cares about her appearance. She is likely very fashionable.
- Figurative meaning
- The Queen of Pentacles figuratively suggests that the querent should be sure to nurture their finances, investments and wealth.
- This card can also represent a need to put effort into creating a warm and nurturing home. Start a garden, clean and rearrange the house and invest in cooking meals.
- A good omen for manifestation.
Multiple Queens showing up in a reading
- If the querent is female, Two Queens in a reading can indicate competition with another female. Two queens for a male querent can indicate a strong female ally.
- Three Queens in a reading can represent a group of females or a female alliance.
- Four Queens in a reading can indicate a female authority figure, feminism or other women’s interest scenarios.
Shadow Side of the Queen of Pentacles
- As a person
- The Queen of Pentacles reversed often represents someone who is overly dependent on other people because they are self-sufficient. It can also represent someone who is vulnerable and shy.
- Another interpretation is a person who likes to play tricks and likes to manipulate others by tempting them with money or material possessions.
- Figurative meaning
- The Queen of Pentacles reversed indicates being in debt to other people in some way. I can also suggest that the querent is overly dependent on other people. It is time for them to step into independence.
- The querent or someone in their life is spending money for the sake of it – without thinking. They are obsessed with indulgence.
- This card can also indicate someone in the querent’s life who has the characteristics listed above and this person is having a negative impact on their life.
- If the Queen of Pentacles shows up reversed in a reading for a woman, this often indicates that she has the potential to step into her earthly power but she needs to work through her insecurities. The querent needs to step up and be more proactive instead of being passive.
