Six of Pentacles

Giving and receiving.

The image

A well dressed merchant holds balanced scales in one hand and drops coins into the hands of one of two kneeling beggars.

Keywords: generosity, exchange, fairness

Light side

Giving and receiving can flow in balance. Generosity, and the grace to accept help, both create connection.

Shadow side

Giving can become a way to hold power, and receiving can feel like dependence. The scales ask who decides what is fair.

Drawing Six of Pentacles in a game of Leela

In Leela Atlas you can draw a card from the Classic Tarot when you land on a square. A bridging question links the card to the square, so the card speaks to your own question:

• In this question, are you more comfortable giving or receiving, and why?
• What does "Six of Pentacles" show you about your square?
• If "Six of Pentacles" were advice for your question, what would it say?
• Where do you meet "Six of Pentacles" in your life right now?
