8 of Pentacles
The Eight of Pentacles speaks of patient repetition, of learning through the gesture and of a craft that sharpens by dint of beginning again.
The Eight of Pentacles speaks of patient repetition, of learning through the gesture and of a craft that sharpens by dint of beginning again.
The Eight of Pentacles follows a craftsman bent over a piece he strikes, six others lined up on the wall in front of him. The gaze goes from the moving hand to the row already made, in a gesture that returns.
The hand that begins again gains assurance: the strike settles, the tool answers, and your next piece comes out better finished than the last.
The hammer strikes in time while the eye no longer returns to the piece: the pentacles on the wall pass by, the pace holds, and the flaw goes through with the others.
RWS. Eight of Pentacles. The marks set up in a column form a ladder: each step gets earned, and the trade reads in that gradation.
Choose one gesture of your trade, set its number of repetitions for the week, and watch what sharpens in the way you do it.
