Ten of Pentacles

The Ten of Pentacles shows us a couple meeting on the street while an person, advanced in age, sits off to the side petting a dog.  The people are surrounded by walls and buildings/homes - there's a sense of security and happiness in the air.  There are also trees, which represent strength, growth, even triumph because they have survived the elements through years.

In this card we also see loyalty, as represented by dogs.  The child represents a new age, the tapestries on the wall recount the history of the past.  The elder in the person is also symbolic of the past and can relay the tales and stories of days gone by.

What we can draw from this card is a sense of accomplishment, triumph, security but we cannot forget the past and the sacrifices that have brought us to this point in our life - if we do then we're destined to repeat yesterdays mistakes.
