SIX OF PENTACLES DESCRIPTION
As you can see, the pentacles are not distributed symmetrically in the Six of Pentacles card. There are three on left, two on the right, and one in the middle. Everyone has different needs. Sometimes you need a financial shot in the arm to make it through a crisis. But sometimes, what you really need is a word of encouragement or advice.
The beggar on the left of the Six of Pentacles is wearing a citrine cloak, meaning that his needs are material. That’s why the merchant is giving him four coins – the exact amount he needs to get back on his feet.
The beggar on the right is wearing azure, a colour that symbolizes divine mercy, but also emotional needs. Money won’t fix his problems. His needs are emotional and spiritual. That is why the merchant in the Six of Pentacles Tarot card holds the scales, a symbol of justice and balance over his head.
The merchant’s russet coat symbolizes rational understanding and the olive colour of his boots signifies that this understanding is based on an intuitive sense of compassion. His white and blue tunic shows that his act of charity is deeply spiritual.
The grey stage and background of the Six of Pentacles Tarot card show that this is a fundamental principle.

General: The 6 of Pentacles is often a card about generosity, meaning that you are either about to be the beneficiary or the giver of something with value. Share what you have as there is always someone who needs it.This generosity does not have to be fiscal, of course; a listening ear, spiritual support, etc. is often far more important than anything money can buy.
Work: You may find things going much better at work, almost out of the blue. A powerful person is likely to support you. This card indicates that this is a good time to ask for a raise or to seek employment that pays more if you are so inclined.
On the whole, your work/career front is looking up. If you are seeking funding through a bank, for your own business, this card is a signal that you may be more successful than you had imagined.
Love: If you are already in a committed relationship, the 6 of Pentacles points to a happy, generous, fair, and balanced relationship for at least a while. Allow your beloved to give to you and at the same time, make sure that you are doing your fair share of giving to the relationship.
If you are unattached but looking, when this card shows up, you are likely to meet someone new who is positive, kind, and generous. Make sure you let people know that you are "looking" for a partner..

REVERSED SIX OF PENTACLES
|
When reversed, the Six of Pentacles Tarot card reminds you to focus on your needs rather than your wants.
They are not always the same. This applies to receiving as well as giving. Don’t forget to be grateful for what you already have. Avoid comparing yourself to how well others are doing.Envy will always make you feel deprived, no matter how good you have it. The 6 of Pentacles reversed can mean that you are not aware of the potential sources of assistance that are available to you. You may be feeling like you can do everything on your own. This would be a mistake. Don't be too proud or too stubborn to allow others to help you. General: The 6 of Pentacles reversed is still very often a card about generosity, but in this case, you may not be seeing the generosity available to you nor the capacity that you have to be generous to others. Open your eyes and realize that to not accept the help that is there for you is much like cutting off your nose to spite your face; also realize that there is much more to generosity than just giving money. Work: It is important to be generous at work with your time, attention, and information when this card appears. This will make the work smoother for you and for everyone concerned. Trying to keep work-oriented things totally to and for yourself is a mistake now. Open up. Be friendly. Things are not as cutthroat as you may be thinking. Love: If you are looking for love, you may need to open yourself up to more. Sometimes we think we are open when in truth we are not. Yes, it's good to be independent, but being taken to extremes can alienate potential partners. If you are in a committed relationship that is not seeming to be going well, try giving more, instead of expecting more to be given to you. |

Finances: The reversed 6 of Pentacles can mean that financial increase is available to you - but not in the way you expect. Look around you and consider other ways that you might be able to make more money. Above all, if you need help, ask for it.
Health: When you receive this card in the context of a health question, the answer is that you must be more open in order to improve your health. Also, it may in some cases be helpful to realize that "healing" and "cure" are not necessarily synonyms. Feel the healing energy all around you. It's there in every breath.
