Six of Pentacles

The image · A merchant holds a pair of scales in one hand and gives coins to kneeling figures with the other.

Upright

generosity
sharing
give and take
charity

This is the balance of giving and receiving: share when you have extra, accept graciously when you need. Healthy help leaves both sides their dignity.

Reversed

debt
strings attached
imbalance

Reversed, the balance tips: one keeps giving, one keeps taking, or help comes with strings attached.

Love

In love, giving to each other; reversed, notice who is always "owing" whom.

Work

At work, fair sharing of resources and rewards; reversed, keep loans and favours clear.

Yes or no?

Upright · Leaning yesGiving and receiving both flow; effort is returned.

Reversed · Leaning noGiving comes with strings, or it's one-sided.

Yes / No is only this card's leaning — the decision is yours.
