Constitutional Temperament: Melancholic

Weaknesses

Since they tend to be perfectionists, they worry about the body and material things. Finances can drive them a bit crazy.

Wellness Concerns Depending Upon the Zodiac Sign Involved

Body parts affected may be the lower jaw, cheek, teeth, neck, throat, vocal cords, thyroid, abdomen, intestines, nervous system, joints (especially the knees), facial hair, and skin.

The Tarot Suit of Coins Traditional & Health Meanings

Ace of Coins/Diamonds – New beginnings in physicality, such as money, material things, a new lover, or physical health, and a possible pregnancy (things are generally looking up) or poverty or weakness in any area of the physical and material world. Pay attention to any physical weaknesses, pain, or other symptoms that may contribute to more frequent or severe infections, such as nutritional deficiencies, lack of exercise, or genetic mutations, like the MTHFR Gene Mutation, which prevents your body from properly assimilating folic acid. 

Keywords - New beginnings, new money, opportunities, fortune, or worldly concerns.

King of Coins/Diamonds – Wise management is one of your gifts. Just don't become a workaholic. Ongoing stress is neither healthy nor productive. Remember to spend time with your friends and family, the ones you work so hard for. Like your Queen of Coins counterpart, you enjoy abundance and the beautiful things in life, including nature. Don't forget to spoil and splurge on yourself every so often to keep from becoming a gloomy bugger. In other words, seek balance in all aspects of life.

Keywords - Husband, father, ownership, discipline, structure, doom, or failure.

Queen of Coins/Diamonds – Like your counterpart, the King of Coins, wise money management is one of your gifts. You love beautiful things, a comfortable environment, and being in nature. Budget wisely, eat an abundance of healthy food, decorate to your heart's content, and walk in the grass barefoot often to stay grounded. The Queen of Coins may have a sweet tooth. Avoid excess sugar. It causes inflammation, which triggers pain.

Keywords - Wife, mother, mature, practical, resourceful, material success, or excess, and infertility.

Knight of Coins – You are down-to-earth and traditional, the more solid and grounded of the four Knights. You keep your eyes open and wait for the right moment for everything to unfold. Your only downfall is hesitating too long and losing the opportunity, which makes you appear a bit dull. Sitting on your "horse" or the "fence" for so long may seem beneficial, but it can also lead to stiff joints and muscles. Be warned. Sitting for too many hours a day can cause muscle tension, which can irritate nerves and trigger pain and cold sores.

Keywords - Male, sensible, progressive, grounded, patient, conventional, or a serious attitude and immobility.

Note: There's no Knight in a deck of ordinary playing cards.

Page (Jack) of Coins/Diamonds – A younger person interested in improvements in the tangible world. A message to improve your finances, your health, or your fitness. Nothing frustrates this Page more than not having the funds to do what they need or want. If you're experiencing financial difficulties (and don't have the funds for the remedy products you'd like to try), consider managing your health in other ways, such as avoiding pain triggers, improving your diet, and practicing stress-reducing techniques. Additionally, if you're a young female page, a pregnancy, birth, or child may be impacting your health.

Keywords - Young person, a beneficial message, a financial opportunity, and a formal study.

10 of Coins/Diamonds – You've been able to establish security for your family for future generations and even set aside funds for unexpected visitors or family members who may need your help. So far, so good. It also appears that you've managed to get your symptoms or condition under control. Ensure that everyone continues to contribute their fair share. Additionally, since this is a card of family and legacy, be sure to wash your hands after being around others or in public to prevent the spread of viruses.

Keywords - Family matters, security, stability, traditions, or legacy.

9 of Coins/Diamonds – You are in the process of deciding whether you want to add something to your world. Even though you may feel something is missing from your life, you are currently rather content and happy. Be sure to consider all the ramifications of making any changes. If you're in a relationship, you might be thinking of having a family (or getting pregnant). When reversed, there may be a need to get out more. Staying in will only cause paranoia. If you're single, this might be a good time to start dating again.  

Keywords - Self-sufficiency, love of nature and wildlife, a solitary existence, and social phobia.

8 of Coins/Diamonds - You've found your bliss! Work is more like play. Just make sure not to cut any corners when it comes to the bits you don't care for, or you will come across as shallow and sloppy. Set SMART goals. When it comes to your health, you're becoming your own master. Good for you!

Keywords - Mastery, training, work, talent, or shoddiness (you have it in you to do better).

7 Coins/Diamonds – You have sewn your seeds in hopes of future prosperity. However, there may be one more thing you can do to guarantee success. Achieving long-term success requires some planning, including attention to your health and overall level of wellness. However, don't let your health take a back seat. Is there something you've been neglecting? Whatever it is, take care of it now. It could be something as simple as drinking more water or as extravagant as committing to a regular gym routine.

Keywords - Assessment, consistent effort, one more thing to put in place, or procrastination.

6 of Coins/Diamonds – Finally, there is enough energy, time, and money to share with others who may depend on you or need your assistance. If living with someone else is financially straining, it's healthy to expect them to contribute to the household expenses, especially when they can afford to. Furthermore, if you need financial assistance, there's nothing wrong with asking for help. The whole point of the 6 of Coins is not to allow money to become a chronic stressor. Chronic stress causes emotional and physical symptoms that can lead to illness. If you are finding more money expected from you, rather than coming to you, it's time to take charge of your thought patterns concerning money and finances. Go back to the drawing board and create a budget based on what you can really afford and stick to it so you'll have enough for your necessities when you need them.

Keywords - Abundance, helping, sharing, giving, budgeting, debt, payoffs, and receiving financial assistance.

5 of Coins/Diamonds – Poverty, in any area, has its grip on you. It will only get worse unless you begin to see the spiritual riches around you. When living with any symptom or condition, it can be easy to lose our identity to it, which causes poverty of the soul. Your condition is not who you are. If you are feeling isolated and unsupported, be sure it's not because you're unwilling to accept help that's being offered, which may come from God, whatever that means to you, spirit guides, angels, ancestors, or people in your life. Reach out. Reclaim yourself. Additionally, if you experience reduced function in either of your legs or consistently feel cold, consult a specialist for further evaluation. Don't wait.

Keywords - Poverty of all types, lack of faith, in it together, crippled or coming in out of the cold.

4 of Coins/Diamonds – You're either enjoying wealth and assets, or you're holding on tight to something you should be more relaxed about. Whatever it is, it brings you a form of security. Eventually, as life changes, you will find there is much beyond your control. However, you should always be in a position where you have enough. When it comes to your health, it's fine to experiment, but hold onto what's been working thus far. The only thing you might consider letting go of is your own fear. 

Keywords - Wealth, assets, inheritance, security, over-caution, holding on tightly, hoarding, or, when reversed, being miserly or over-spending, and a need to budget.

3 of Coins/Diamonds – In your work life, things are coming together, and you may be called upon and paid for your expertise. If you find that you are not being compensated for your services, it may be time to consider some constructive criticism. This is a great time to build on your health (what you already have going for you) for future security and wellness.

Keywords - First accomplishments, ability, hardworking, recognition, or laziness.

2 of Coins/Diamonds – You are juggling things, people, or situations. So far, you are doing well, but sooner or later, you will have to drop the ball, so to speak. Decide your priorities now before life decides for you, and everything rolls away. You may have to choose between what makes you feel happy and what is good for your health. Eventually, you will see that what makes you healthy also makes you happy. If you're having a hard time choosing between two equal paths of worth, you might consider an oracle for a nudge in the right direction. 

Keywords - Juggling acts, robbing Peter to pay Paul, making ends meet, or dropping the ball.
