King of Pentacles

The King of Pentacles symbolizes a true kingly and regal figure.

Upright position meaning

The King of Pentacles, when pulled upright, truly represents a kingly figure. He is responsible, self-assured, confident, generous, regal, and reliable. All of his positive characteristics are attributed to the love and respect others have for him. Pulling this card upright means that you should keep in touch with your goals and look forward to long term success. Stay in control - like a king would - and you'll achieve anything.

Reversed position meaning

Reversed, the King of Pentacles represents a fallen king. He has fallen from his throne, and reigns no longer. Just like the Queen of Pentacles, this king may have strayed from his responsibilities and has become indulgent, greedy, and impatient. He became focused too much on the material wealth this world has to offer, and that led to his eventual downfall as a king. He overlooked the true value of things.

Advice meaning

The King of Pentacles is telling you that you are a respectable figure. However, do not stray from your current standing, lest you fall.
