The "Threes" in the Tarot Deck generally suggest a family unit of mother, father and child. This represents the resolution of the tension inherent in the number "two" (to due to opposition of oppposite extremes). However, this numerical "theme" is one of the least apparent of such themes as the "Threes" vary widely from suit to suit.

In the case of the Three of Pentacles the theme is honourable works, and the recognition of honourable works. Typical images depicted on this card are of skilled craftsmen or professionals engaged in their work. (The suit of Pentacles is concerned with all aspects of the material world - not just wealth and money.)

Some texts include meanings for "reversed cards", which apply when the cards are shuffled in both order and orientation. This doubles the number of possible "cards" in the deck from 78 to 156. (In terms of the probabilities of obtaining results by chance alone, it is not a simple doubling as once a card has been drawn it cannot be selected again in the opposite orientation in the same reading.)
