Meaning for the Reverse position as found on BiddyTarot.com:

"The Five of Pentacles reversed indicates an end to difficult times, particularly if you have recently suffered a major financial loss or job loss. You may find new sources of income, a new job, or someone has offered to help you out while you get back on your feet. You may be starting to feel as if life is worth living again and starting to regain your self-confidence. Finally you can see a way out of your financial difficulties and your hope is being renewed.
The reversed Five of Pentacles can sometimes indicate the persistence of inner, spiritual poverty. It reflects a time when you feel isolated and alone, even if surrounded by many people. You may feel as though something is just completely out of place and you are struggling to place your finger on what it is. Return to the Four of Pentacles and you may come to realise that you have placed too much emphasis on your material wealth and have neglected your spiritual well-being."


At first I wasn't sure what to make of this card when I first drew it and posted it on my Instagram.  I had read the meaning as given in the companion book, but I'm still not very adept at figuring out what a Reverse position meaning is.

However, one of my friends on Facebook pointed me in the direction of the website I mentioned earlier and holy hell!  Both the Upright as well as the Reverse position descriptions were delightfully detailed!  I will DEFINITELY be using BiddyTarot in my readings as I strive to become more acquainted with my deck!
