Eight of Pentacles: The year to come

Eight of Pentacles
From Witches Tarot by Ellen Dugan

The Eight of Pentacles represents my year to come. I had pain and heartbreak in the year past (three of swords), and now it is time to move on (eight of cups)... Eight of Pentacles represents a need for diligence and focused study. For me, the year to come will be spent ignoring distractions, listening to mentors, studying my craft, becoming more proficient at the things that I want to be an expert in.

This means I will probably have to spend a lot of time alone, but the rewards will be worth it if I stick to my goals.

What about you? What are your goals for the new year? Where do you see yourself headed?
