Upright meaning
The Six of Pentacles is about the flow of giving and receiving. Resources move fairly: you may be in a position to help others, or you may receive help, a gift, a loan or support. The scales show balance and fairness. Give generously, receive gratefully, and keep the exchange honest. Charity and kindness bring blessings.
Reversed meaning
Reversed, giving becomes unequal. There may be debts, strings attached, or someone taking advantage. Make sure the exchange is fair.
Love and relationships
In love, generosity and balance. Both partners give and receive.
Work and career
At work, fair pay, a raise, sponsorship or help from a mentor. Share your knowledge.
Money
With money, financial help, a loan repaid, or the chance to give. Budget fairly.
Advice
Give and receive with an open, fair heart.
