8 of Pentacles: The Grand And The Mundane

8 of Pentacles Tarot Card

8 of Pentacles Tarot Card: Getting Into A Routine

You are not going to accomplish grand amazing things each and every day of your life. Look at this person in the 8 of Pentacles tarot card. He’s not exactly breaking new ground. He’s in a routine, doing what he has to do to get by. He doesn’t seem upset about it at all. He’s just doing his thing.

You will accomplish some pretty amazing things in the course of your life, but not every day will be devoted to them. Most days, you have probably already discovered, will be spent doing the mundane, day by day things that keep you alive and keep you afloat. And what’s wrong with that? Nothing. Just like this guy in the 8 of Pentacles tarot card, you have to do what you have to do to keep on living.

Consider it this way- the mundane facilitates the grand. By taking care of the everyday business of living, you are able to focus other time on bigger and better accomplishments. Do you think you can do your best at getting things done if you live in the streets? Probably not, so you better make sure you make enough money to pay the rent or mortgage or whatever your living arrangements are. Same for hunger. Can you put your most into your endeavors if you are hungry? No. So, you better make sure you can afford some food.

The 8 of Pentacles tarot card has that message for you. Take care of your mundane, day by day survival stuff so that you have what you need to reach for your star and accomplish the grand things you know you can. The 8 of Pentacles provides the framework and foundation for the rest of things you will do with your life. — Jim Larsen

8 of Pentacles: Get Into the Routine

8 of Pentacles Tarot Card: Get it done

There will be those days when you just need to get stuff done. These are 8 of pentacles days. When these days happen, the best thing to do is to just do it. Get into a routine. Be systematic. It may not always be fun, but find a way to make it more enjoyable if you can. Listen to music while you work, or an audio book maybe. Just because it is a routine doesn’t mean it has to be miserable. The important thing is that you keep a good attitude about it.

Remind yourself that on some level or other, what you are doing is important and the sooner you are done, the sooner you can be glad it’s over and you can move onto something you would rather be doing. So, make no excuses not to get your work done and be glad it will be over eventually. This is what the 8 of pentacles can be about sometimes. — Jim Larsen
