5 of Pentacles

The Five of Pentacles in Tarot stands for hard times, ill health, and rejection. The Five of Pentacles meaning in a Tarot reading is usually negative. The image on the Five of Pentacles card of two cold, hungry, and sick figures is self-explanatory. The suffering portrayed in the card is easily recognizable: people without life's basic necessities.
