Six of Pentaclesfor Aquarius · Work and Career
"Generosity isn't the question. What you do next is."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
A Robinhood like card, about giving to the needy and distressed. It is a testimony to success in life, but also goodness of heart. Pentacles represents wealth and the six card represents balance after stress. Together they signify giving back to those who need it and remembering your own humble beginnings.
You have reached a level of success where you can look back at your achievments and give back to others. Find people who are down on their luck that you can mentor or help. Don't get caught up on being paid back or paying back everyone who helped you-- the act of giving can be reward enough.
You are focusing on yourself and what you can get from a situation (or are doing business/in a relationship with someone who is heavily self interested). Tit-for-tat mentality can mean you don't act in accordance with your values (and it's petty). Create some boundaries to not let yourself be fooled into scarcity.

Six of Pentacles for Aquarius in Work and Career
The Visionary
Pentacles are the earth suit, so the Six of Pentacles sits in Capricorn. Capricorn sits directly beside Aquarius, the one relationship a sign cannot see clearly because it is too close to get any distance on. What it asks for is this: change one concrete arrangement this week. The difficulty is noticing it is being asked at all. Upright, the recovery is underway with the loss still in the room.
When reading about work through an Aquarius lens, the Six of Pentacles says that you feel like work is where you prove the system wrong, a problem you solve from thirty thousand feet, and something you will leave the second it stops being interesting. This has either led to you building something no one else could see, or to leaving before anyone could build it with you. You have not asked yourself what you actually want from this work, only what you think you should want from it. The Aquarius blind spot in it is being ordinary, or worse, being needed in a way that pins them down.
In practice that can look like a promotion that is really more work. Whatever form it takes, it is recovering, with the loss still in the room.
