The Astrological Associations with the Pentacles Suit

The Astrological Associations with the Pentacles Suit of the Minor Arcana

The last suit of the Minor Arcana of the tarot that will be looked at along with its astrological associations is the Pentacle suit, which is sometimes called the disks suit. This suit is what governs the physical and material aspects of life such as physical health, finances, large or small purchases, and any type of materials. It can also represent ego and self-esteem.

With that said, it is not a hard guess that the Pentacles would be associated with the earth element. The signs that are associated with this suit are Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn. Now let’s look at the astrological associations with each of the cards in this suit.

This card is associated with all of the earth signs, Taurus, Virgo, and Capricorn. It rules new financial, business, or career opportunities, or manifesting abundance. This means if this card comes up and you have been saving up for a new home or car, for instance, that is a good sign.
