There's no substitute for practice, for experience, for hours sunk into a something. Some people think the Knight of Pentacles is boring, I think he's a mothersnugglin genius, here's why and here's how we're invited to embody this energy today.

This is a card all about our conscious bodily experience. How we choose to show up to our work. Not necessarily our job but to our path of growth. The Knight of Pentacles is dedicated, dependable, determined. But he's not just grinding away at some boring 9-5. He's putting that focus into integrating his bodily lived experience into his mind and soul. He is trusting and cultivating body wisdom, and living in reverence to nature, knowing that every seed is a miracle. He is fully a part of the mystery and nuance of earthly existence.
.
So for us, we're invited to see the big potential in the small things. And we're asked to show up with focus and trust, to each day we have in our bodies. The abundance here isn't just flat money, it's the richness of nature. The more we can befriend and listen to our own bodily wisdom, the more we can feel our connection to the rest of the earth. We're the best tech and tool and we've got. Being fully embodied and present is the most magical thing we can do.

Sidebar: Our innate biology/body tech is so fascinating to me. I think cybernetics and mechanization and mass production are cool as ideas but also redundant in an evolutionary way. It would be better to work with the existing biological and energetic technologies of nature and the human body to continue progressing as a species. Communication = resonance/empathy. Production = cell division. Automation = instinct. I love reading about the science of the mind and body.

I'm clearly still feeling that Page of Swords idea fun today, putting some Knight of Pentacles work into it. How about you?
