The "Sixes" in the Tarot Deck reflect the fact
that six is located at the centre of the Kabbalist Tree of Life - which
implies harmony and communication.
Some writers describe the Six of Pentacles in terms of "material
success" (the Rider-Waite and Robin
Wood Decks both depict a well-dressed person, possibly a merchant
giving coins to othes). However, this card often also includes images
of those receiving the money - who appear not to be materially successful.
One way to interpret this card is in terms of an exchange of energy
- assuming that the giver also receives something (possibly something
intangible) by giving away the coins.
This card includes connotations of both generosity and inequality.
