Known also as the Lord of Material Works, and ruled by Mars in Capricorn, the Three of Pentacles represents hard work, progress and the creation of beautiful things. Mars is concerned with energy and drive, while Capricorn is tied to the permanence of things of value and approaching tasks with a sense of responsibility and tenacity.
This card requires you to get clear on your commitments, priorities and focus. There is work to do, but because this work has a clear direction and outcome, then success is assured as long as you are prepared to put in the required sweat and tears.
You are called to be very clear on your direction, what you want to achieve, what has meaning and heart for you, not just something that you can do to earn a living or to kill time. There is an aspect of the artisan here, the work that you produce has the capacity to live on beyond you and must be of the highest quality.
The Three refers to the synchronicity of mind, heart and action, and when these three elements come together in your enterprise then you will have such clarity about your purpose that nothing can stop you. This card turns up now to tell you that this is possible for you now, so don't give up if the going appears to be tough.
There is increase, whether financial or of recognition and prestige (which can eventually amount to the same thing) as you are building upon your past efforts. This will serve to encourage you to continue your efforts, as you are a long way from being done just yet. The energy inherent in this card is important in that it gives you the staying power to complete what you have begun, and will carry you through times of disappointment, struggle, rejection even - be assured that what you are doing is worth it and you only need to keep going and you will have success at the other end and victory.
It's a good time to examine where you are holding yourself back - where you are not fully believing in yourself. Releasing this is the key to your success.
