Three pentacles are carved into the stone archway above them. The scene represents the collaboration between different expertise levels and the recognition of craftsmanship within a team effort.
Upright Meaning
The Three of Pentacles (also called Three of Coins) represents successful collaboration and the sharing of skills. This card appears when teamwork, mentorship, or group projects are highlighted. Your expertise is being recognized, or you're learning from others more experienced. In love readings, it can indicate building something together with your partner or getting support from friends and family. Career-wise, it suggests successful partnerships, team projects, or receiving recognition for your contributions.
Reversed Meaning
Poor teamwork, lack of cooperation, or conflicts within group projects. You might be struggling with communication issues, ego clashes, or feeling your contributions aren't valued. In relationships, it can point to difficulty working together toward shared goals or outside interference in your partnership. The reversed Three suggests addressing communication breakdowns and finding common ground.
