After the Two of Pentacles, the Three of Pentacles follows, which stands for focus on working hard, mastering the skills, and sharing the results with others.
- Work, work, and work
- Learning deeper and polishing the skills
- Jupiter in Capricorn as a call to stay focused
- Mars in Capricorn as a symbol of persistence and hard working
All these symbols can be found in the picture. And here is the next chapter for the Golden Dragon.
Soon, our Golden Dragon learned a lot about essential oils. He discovered the best time to collect peony petals and he figured out how to extract the oil and preserve it. It was the time to show the results of his work to others.
To get the most honest opinion, he invited the Wise Owl, who served the King and had the highest expectations about everything, and the Chipmunk, a well-known buffoon, who could find a way to laugh at absolutely everything.
Being intrigued, the Wise Owl flew in from his tree, and the Chipmunk scampered up from his burrow in the forest and showed up to meet the Golden Dragon. They both tested the oil from the bottle in their own ways.
The Owl smelled it first and put a drop on his back right behind the wings, and the Chipmunk dipped his toes in oil and was observing his slippery footprints.
The Owl said: “Your oil is exceptional. My best advice is to work harder, so you will feel needed, useful and important. And then I’ll introduce you to the King.”
The Chipmunk said: “My best advice is for you to take it easy. After all, it’s just oil.”
So, our Golden Dragon learned a lesson. To succeed he has to work hard, care about his reputation, and take it easy if something goes not as expected.
