365 Tarot Spreads: Revealing the Magic in Each Day - Sasha Graham 2014

Financial Responsibility Spread

On This Day

Morgan was a passionate collector of antiquities. Tarot was one of his prized possessions. He owned one-third of the original Visconti-Sforza deck; it sat near his desk in his private study until he died.

American financier J. P. Morgan was born this day in 1837. One of the most influential bankers in history, Morgan was also a notable collector of books, paintings, and other art objects.

Summation of Spread

The Ten of Pentacles may be the wealthiest card in the deck, but the jam-packed card begs the question of where one’s attention goes once the material world has been conquered.

Could your financial philosophy use a boost? Using this giant of banking, we can take a look at our own financial habits through the lens of tarot.
