Safe in my garden
The scent of fresh bread lingers
while I take a break.

The Nine of Pentacles reflects a feeling of security that comes after the hard work has been put in and mastery has been attained. It speaks to a phase when one is comfortable in their own skin and no longer seeks external validation. It suggests one already knows his/her own talents and gifts after years of experience and effort. This is not about resting on one’s laurels, but it’s about having earned some time to devote to self care.
When this card appears in a spread, it suggests a time to acknowledge your successes and make time for a little self care. It’s a good time to indulge in a decadent restaurant meal, learn a new craft or hobby for fun, or read for pleasure.
Meditate on the themes in this card to support in your own worth, to acknowledge both the talents you were born with and the skills you have mastered, and to own a sense of security in your accomplishments so far.
