Six of Pentacles Upright

The Six of Pentacles refers to financial harmony, whether it be controlling your spending, accepting help to get back on your feet, or sharing your abundance with others. If you are on the receiving end of generosity, show gratitude and “pay it forward” when you can. Consider finding a mutual aid network where you can give cash, time, donated goods, or skills to help your community.

Six of Pentacles Reversed

You may be feeling burned out from helping others. Don’t neglect your own needs in your efforts toward generosity. Be sure you are extending help for the right reasons: out of a genuine desire to improve someone’s circumstances, not for praise or social status.
