"Nurturing Abundance isn't the question. What you do next is."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
A woman sitting in a garden, staring down at her pentacle. Pentacles represent wealth and queen cards represent nurturing, femininity, and are often a motherly figure. This card represents the wealth and energy that is required to build a comfortable, secure space for yourself and others.
You have a figure in your life who represents wealth and prosperity and hard work (perhaps that figure is you yourself). They are generous with their resources and want to help others. Romantically the queen can mean you are in a place to start a family or settle down. This card may be an opportunity for you to parent your parents and help them with the resources they need as they age.
You have achieved a wealth an prosperity that feels hollow. Instead of feeling generous and nurturing you feel like you are fighting to stay afloat. Maybe someone in your life has used money to emotionally manipulate you. Either way, connect to what you need to feel abundant in life and try to build yourself into the true Queen of Pentacles.

Queen of Pentacles for Scorpio in Work and Career
The Transformer
Pentacles are the earth suit, so the Queen of Pentacles sits in Capricorn. Capricorn sextiles Scorpio, which is help that has to be taken up rather than help that arrives. What it asks for is this: change one concrete arrangement this week. Scorpio is perfectly capable of that, which is exactly why not doing it needs a better excuse. Upright, this is the element held internally, by someone with nothing left to prove about it.
When reading about work through a Scorpio lens, the Queen of Pentacles says that you feel like work is where you need to know the financial truth before anyone else does, a problem to solve (or a power to hold), and something you will not announce until you are certain. This has either led to you becoming the person who understands the money and the leverage, or to you refusing to enter the room where decisions are made. You have not asked yourself what you actually want from this work, only what you think you should want from it. The Scorpio blind spot in it is the feeling of being fooled, or of being seen as naive, or of depending on someone who will leave.
In practice that can look like a promotion that is really more work. Whatever form it takes, it is held by someone who has been through it already.
