In Margarete Petersen’s Nine of Coins we
see a woman meditating on a stone. Waves of light emanate from the stone, encompassing
everything around it. My imagination sees a lone tree on the distant horizon.

I usually see this as the card of fruition,
being able to reap and enjoy the rewards of hard work – be it physical, mental,
or spiritual. Venus in Virgo - enjoying the fruits of the harvest. But it is the penultimate card, so there’s still something else
to come; perhaps that’s why the woman in more traditional decks often looks (to
me) thoughtful? The woman in the MP deck meditates on the stone; she might be
giving thanks for all she has, but she might also be searching within to find
out what’s still missing. Virgo - paying attention to detail!
Margarete Petersen’s Three of Coins was
about starting something new, letting go of the old, and being aware of
physical space. Co-operation on all levels (physical, social, emotional). In
the Nine, we have the appreciation of all the hard work, and the abundance that
it’s brought – three-fold return!
Ordinary stone,
Earth’s treasure trove; discover
Abundance within.
