Six of Pentaclesfor Cancer
"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 Cancer
The Nurturer
Cancer is a Water cardinal sign ruled by Moon, whose natural subject is home, roots, family, the private interior. Pentacles are the earth suit, so the Six of Pentacles sits in Capricorn. Capricorn sits directly opposite Cancer, so this card describes the half of the situation Cancer habitually hands to someone else. What it wants is this: change one concrete arrangement this week. Handing that to another person is exactly the habit. Cancer is cardinal: it starts things, and this card is in the middle, which is the part cardinal signs are worst at staying for. Earth and Water feed each other, so this card's logic will feel natural here. Natural is not the same as correct. Upright, the recovery is underway with the loss still in the room.
