Two of Pentacles

UPRIGHT

A juggler dances with two pentacles joined by an infinity loop, ships rising and falling on the waves behind him. The Two of Pentacles is the art of balance — the management of competing demands, the adaptive footing of a person keeping two things going at once. The card rewards flexibility without endorsing chaos.

REVERSED

Reversed, the Two of Pentacles is the juggle dropped, or the demands multiplied past what one body can hold. The card can name overwhelm, a budget out of balance, a person spreading themselves so thin that nothing gets the attention it needs. The remedy is to set one pentacle down.
