Six of Pentacles tarot card

"Generosity isn't the question. What you do next is."

Six quick picks first, then your reading

On the card

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.

Upright
GenerosityCharityGiving and ReceivingBalance of Resources

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.

Reversed

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 Aries in Money and Wealth

The Initiator

Pentacles are the earth suit, so the Six of Pentacles sits in Capricorn. Capricorn squares Aries, so the card asks for the move Aries is least fluent in: change one concrete arrangement this week. The friction is the content, not an obstacle to it. Upright, the recovery is underway with the loss still in the room.

When reading about money through an Aries lens, the Six of Pentacles says that you feel like money is the thing you need to move forward, a problem to solve immediately (or spend away), and something that only matters if it is stopping you from doing the next thing. This has either made you resourceful enough to start with nothing and build fast, or left you broke from betting on yourself before you were ready. You have not looked at your full financial picture all at once, and the not-looking costs more than the looking would. The Aries blind spot in it is the feeling that nothing you do makes any difference, that you are not the center of the story.

In practice that can look like an unexpected bill, or a rainy day fund finally getting built. Whatever form it takes, it is recovering, with the loss still in the room.
