The Eight of Pentacles

Upright - The use of one's skills and personal interests to rewarding and profitable ends.  Reaping the fruits of one's labour, a small increase in money.  An advantageous card for any talented or enthusiastic individuals.  To enjoy lasting success efforts should be continuous and not halted prematurely.  Thriftiness.

Ill Dignified or Reversed - Inappropriate use of energy and skills for unsuitable ends.  Dishonest dealings in business affairs.  Short term gain at the expense of long term profit.
