Synopsis of the Twos

Two is the number of growth and union.

It is the blending of opposites to create something new and perfect.

Like in nature, every whole is made of opposites: light and dark, yin and yang.

Two reminds us that sometimes these variations are needed for balance and harmony.

Upright:  When the Two of Coins appears, you are being given the opportunity to develop new skills.

Even though you may have to perform extra work to get something you want, it's important to see help when it arrives.

You may develop additional skills to open your own business or some overtime for extra cash.

The Two of Coins can also refer an imbalance in your work life. One day you may be running off your feet, and then next twiddling your thumbs.

Likewise, you may be experiencing financial fluctuations where one month you are scrambling for spare change while the next you have more money than you can count.                                        

Reversed:  If the Two of Coins is reversed, everything seems out of balance

Money seems to go out faster than it comes in and trying to sort out looming debts can seem impossible.

At first, it is easy to blame your fluctuating moods on your job and money chaos. Really though, it is important to realize that the common denominator is you.

Once you stop acting aimless, everything else will gain direction and purpose.
