Making Coin: What the Eight of Pentacles Reveals About Your Hustle This Virgo Season – Read Your Tarotscope for 23 August to 1 September
So, What Exactly is a Tarotscope, and Why Should You Care?
What’s an eight of pentacles tarotscope? Here’s the scoop: In astrology, each zodiac sign is divided into three sections, known as decans. Each decan lasts about 10 days and has an energy that influences and shapes those days. Every decan is linked to a minor arcana tarot card that resonates with the vibe of that time. Right now, we’re in the first decan of Virgo, which starts around August 23/24 and ends around September 1/2. The energy of these ten days is symbolised by the Eight of Pentacles, also called the Eight of Coins.

Reversed
But wait… did you get the eight of pentacles reversed? Don’t panic! It doesn’t mean what you might think. In fact, don’t get too hung up on reversals—some readers don’t use reversed cards at all. Generally, a reversed card doesn’t signify the opposite of its upright meaning. Instead, it suggests that the energy of the card is present but not fully expressed. It’s emerging, but something is preventing it from manifesting completely; there’s some form of resistance at play. So, if you pull the Eight of Pentacles reversed, consider asking yourself: How might I be blocking this energy? or What am I doing that’s stopping this?
Eight of Pentacles Manifesting
Whether you’re pursuing a career, financial or life goal, the eight of pentacles represents the dedication to turn your dreams into reality. You can manifest anything you want in life with two essential components: desire and belief. You have to want it, and you have to truly believe that it’s possible. Wanting something is often the easy part, but calmly expecting it is harder. Why? Because you need to genuinely think that what you want is likely and realistic for you. How do you get yourself to believe it’s possible, without feeling like you are just gaslighting yourself? Fortunately, we can draw on this tarot card for insight into what to do so that this mindset comes naturally. So, let’s get into it and make things happen.
Everyday Eight of Pentacles
Virgo is often seen as humble and down-to-earth, and this energy is your secret key to success. Success doesn’t always come with fireworks—it starts with the quiet, consistent effort that nobody sees. It’s the thousand tiny steps it takes to get from point A to point. It’s taking care of business in responsible and often unglamorous ways. How does this help you manifest? Because it grounds you in reality. You get real world evidence that this is happening, which is the fast track to manifestation. Plus, all the small, boring tasks add up over time to create something meaningful and valuable. So embrace the mundane tasks, the behind-the-scenes work, the things that don’t get immediate recognition. Most good things are created in a process which is largely invisible and humble, but essential.
Here’s a list of what the kinds of things I find myself doing on a day I draw the eight of pentacles:
- Taking a class or workshop to learn a new skill, like a YouTube tutorial or a class on SkillShare.
-
- Reformatting jpeg photos into webp files so my website runs faster.
- Tidying up my workspace so I can be more productive. Creating a filing system for important files and docs.
- Prioritising tasks and creating a to-do list.
- Everday self-care in a daily routine. Making a healthy meal and creating a meal planner.
- Budgeting and financially planning for the month.
- Following a fitness routine or refining my current one.
- Decluttering, donating and recycling items I no longer need.
Consistency is Key
If the eight of pentacles were a book, it would be Atomic Habits. This book teaches us how small, consistent actions can lead to big changes over time. The idea is that you focus on making small, manageable changes and weave them into your daily life as habits. You allow it to be easy and let all your efforts eventually add up. It works because by repeating these tiny actions again and again, over time it becomes a natural part of who you are. You accumulate small wins. You realise that you are the kind of person who achieves these goals. And this is the manifestation mindset you need to make things happen. So just like the person on the card calmly makes one small coin and then the next, over and again, you too can make a million coins over time.
Simplify to Multiply
This is not about doing more; it’s about doing things with intention and care. When you get down to the essentials, it becomes easier to start, stay focused, and get things done. Often, getting started can be the hardest part. But here’s the secret: motivation comes after you start, not before. By simplifying, you make that first step do-able. So break things down into tiny, simple tasks you can handle consistently. The more you keep it simple, the more you get done. Plus, this eliminates your resistance to what you want to manifest. Instead of procrastinating, worrying and stressing, you are just doing it. You start to feel yourself turning in the direction of what you want. You start to really see your dreams turning into reality, one step at a time. This feels great, and feeling good is one of the secrets to manifesting.
Zen Focus
Keeping it simple helps you focus on what matters. Focus helps you get you into a flow. This flow can feel like zen meditation. The eight of pentacles shows that even simple and boring tasks, can all be acts of mindfulness. When you are doing eight of pentacles tasks, see if you can get to a place where like the whole world is just the work. It will give you a sense of peace and take your mind off your worries. The more you overthink, the more you overcomplicate things that should be simple. You can end up feeling overwhelmed and getting nowhere—except closer to burnout. Negative emotions, fear, doubt and worry, will block your manifestations. Focus helps you feel calm and gets you in the right mindset, in the zone to create results. So, magic doesn’t only happen in the big moments—it’s in the everyday tasks.
Just Do It
We all want quick results, the golden ticket. We crave shortcuts and formulas that guarantee success. You want reassure you’re not wasting your time. But here’s the secret: You won’t know until you try. No amount of thinking can replace action. Success comes from experimenting, trial and error, and finding what works for you. So, give yourself permission to make mistakes and learn. Embrace the messiness. None of what you do is a waste of time. Over time, you’ll improve, refine your work, and develop your skill set. Just give it go, and see what happens. This brings in an energy of allowing, which is key to manifesting. Over time, you will notice you are gaining momentum. Your small wins will add up, and reinforce your belief that you want to manifest is genuinely, realistically possible for you.
Embrace Cycles
It can be hard to get into the energy of allowing, unless you understand cycles. Virgo season is the time to plant the seeds of your future success. Patience is key. Things take as long as they take. Think of every task you do now as an investment in your future. You understand that change will happen over time. You plant your seeds, you tend to your crops, and because you know life moves in cycles, you chill out. Once you plant a seed, you don’t keep digging it up. You let it be, trust, know you’ve done your work and it will bear fruit at the right time. Because you know it’s a cycle and things take time, you don’t panic if your result is not here yet. And so, you naturally reach for thoughts that feel better, which is key for manifesting.
Beauty in Small Things
Virgo energy is all about the details. Take a closer look at everything you’re doing, there’s beauty in paying attention to the little things. Virgo energy isn’t about superficial fixes; it’s about real change. You look beyond the obvious to find out the deeper, smaller details. You shine a light on it so you can really see everything. This is just like the Hermit’s lamp or the bright Sun. With careful, detailed, thoughtful work, we often gain a better understanding of things that are not clear at first. Sometimes, just one or two little tweaks, a slightly different approach is all that is needed. You might be so close to what you want and not realising that just one little change could change everything.
Know Your Why
Virgo is a season for introspection and personal growth. Ask yourself: What do you want to achieve? How can you better align your actions with your goals? What will really make me feel successful, happy, fulfilled? Getting this answer is like combining the brilliance of the Sun with the wisdom of the Hermit. When you can see your why and what the ultimate goal is, it makes all the routine and mundane everyday eight of pentacles tasks worth it. Feeling the inspiration of what you want to manifest is so key to getting results. So, each day, just ask yourself, how do I want to feel when this day is over? Then start with the easiest, smallest step. Easy to do, if you know why you are doing it.
