Radiant: Rider-Waite-Smith Tarot- Three of Pentacles
The Rider-Waite Three of Pentacles concentrates on the meanings of employment, business, and constructive building, by illustrating a medieval church scene while three artisans are at work. Some of the colors in this scene may have something to do with Mars, as in the red roses on the odd robe of one of the personages. Roses are sacred to the Goddess and the Third Sephiroth- Binah, and red is the color assigned to Binah in her martial/active state. This Tarot Card is traditionally called the Three of Pentacles, as shown in many medieval art tarot decks. It's primary meaning is "As above, so below". However, the Pentacle although the sigil of man, fails to imply the spinning motion of all Atoms, the "Great Work" material of the physical universe. Hence, many nontraditional tarot decks choose a disk (disc), for its stability and propensity for accuracy, depends on its spin. In physics it is known that there are really no "solids", as all things have more space than material, as well as, even the rocks have within them spinning atoms. Hence, we can understand the Great Works, started with the first spinning atom and that "being" is the Great Work of The One Energy that is in all things.
The Modern Witch Tarot- 3 of Pentacles
The Modern Witch Tarot- 3 of Pentacles, which usually is a modern copy of the Rider-Waite-Smith. tarot, actually strays from the usual cathedral building image. Here, 3 pentacles are suspended above on the curtain, behind the posing nude. Here it represents the pay off of one's passion for learning and improving skills.Therefore, someone above you (pentacles) is looking to award you for all your hard work and dedication to your craft. You have the talent to see it through, and soon you'll be where you want to be.
Copper-Verdigris
This card also represents the Material establishment of the Universe as determined by its basic form of 3 as based on the Trinity of the Qabalistic Supernal Triangle of Kether-Chokmah-Binah and the fact that 3 points make a plane. The influence of Venus is in the copper color and its green verdigris is represented by the clothing of the artist. Venus, was known as the Goddess of Love.
