The Two of Pentacles as How Someone Sees You: Busy, and Hard to Pin Down

Written by Chaya the Medium.

The Two of Pentacles as how someone sees you means they see the juggler. Here is what the picture includes, upright and reversed.

If you want the short answer, the Two of Pentacles as how someone sees you means they see you as busy: juggling commitments, adaptable, always in motion, possibly with no room for them. It is an admiring picture and a slightly hesitant one.

This is you as the dancer with two coins in the air. They see the skill. They wonder whether they would be a third coin.

The Two of Pentacles upright as how someone sees you

Tina Gong's the Two of Pentacles guide at Labyrinthos associates the upright card with balance, adaptability, juggling priorities and managing change. When the card lands in a position that asks how someone sees you, I read those meanings as the image the person holds of you, which is not the same as who you are and not the same as what they feel. the Two of Pentacles as feelings covers what they feel; the Two of Pentacles as intentions covers what they plan. This page covers the picture. The general card meanings at Biddy Tarot are a useful second reference.

Upright, I read the Two of Pentacles as a person who sees you as capable and stretched: managing a lot, cheerful about it, hard to schedule.

What I would not read into it is disinterest. They may just not want to add to your load.

What the card does not tell you

The card does not confirm whether they think they matter enough to be fitted in. No card lets a reader see inside another person's head. What a card can do is describe the kind of image that fits the person's behaviour toward you, and give you something to check against how they actually treat you.

The Two of Pentacles reversed as how someone sees you

Reversed, the Two of Pentacles as how someone sees you means they see you as overwhelmed and dropping things, possibly them.

In your own question, ask whether you have cancelled on this person more than once. A reversed card here is a prompt to notice whether the picture the person holds has gone sour or gone wrong, not a verdict on you.

The Two of Pentacles as how an ex sees you

Asked how an ex sees you, the Two of Pentacles suggests they remember you as always busy, with the relationship as one more thing to juggle. My guide to asking a psychic whether an ex will come back explains what a reading can and cannot say about that question.

The Two of Pentacles as how a new person sees you

For someone new, this card means they see a full life. Make visible room if you want them in it.

How to check the picture against reality

Look at whether the person hesitates to ask for your time.

What to record before drawing again

Keep three short notes: the question you asked, what you are juggling, and whether this person is a coin or a priority.

For comparison, the Ten of Wands as how someone sees you and the Seven of Cups as how someone sees you describe different pictures. The the Two of Pentacles card meaning page covers the card in full, and the Two of Pentacles as a yes or no and the Two of Pentacles as timing cover the other questions people most often ask of it. For a personal interpretation, my guide to a love psychic reading online explains how I work, and the three-card tarot listing and customer reviews are worth reading before deciding whether to order.
