Two of Pentacles

A person standing on a very flat, stable surface juggling and dancing a jig.  Two boats are in the background riding the waves.  The waves represent turmoil, not being at peace, uneasy.  What is interesting about the waves is prior to the first one on the left and after the third one on the right the the line is level while in between the waves there is a definite curve between the waves.  To me this would indicate that the situation is temporary or that much ado is being made about nothing.  The two ships are interesting, the ship on the persons right is much smaller than the one on his left - even the wave on his right is much smaller than the one on his left..  The person in the image is also looking to the left.  The left is a symbol for weakness or from a position of disadvantage.  Ironically, the position of the persons left hand seems to be closer to the wave on his left - perhaps this is a subconscious move to try and calm or push the wave down and try and bring balance to the situation.

Certainly there is a look of concern on the persons face; he's also dressed in red.  To me, this reaffirms his concern.

Also this card could mean that he's just going along and trying to get through this situation the best he can and making the best of it.  This is best symbolized by the Lemniscate, which is the green infinity symbol.  So, while this person is concerned about the situation, whether great or small, he's determined to make it and his persistence will pay off.

One other interpretation for this card is cycles - in this case there could be two opposing cycles which could be at odds with one other or cycling at the same time - it would depend on the question.
