has been successful
eight of pentacles + king of pentacles reversed
We have someone who's been successful, but they're feeling lost. Accumulation of wealth has put restrictions on them and/or their life. Perhaps this person feels powerless because they are not managing their wealth well. Maybe they're remaining in a limited situation that is negatively impacting their relationships, or the few options available to them could be adversely impacting their well-being. Whatever the specific situation, there's been a loss that makes them feel persecuted and confused about how they ended up this circumstance.
