Upright vs reversed
Upright, Six of Pentacles speaks to generosity, giving, receiving. Reversed, that energy is turned — blocked, delayed, internalised, or taken to excess. The card doesn't change what it's about; it changes how the energy is flowing.
How to read a reversal
There are a few lenses: blocked (the energy is stuck), opposite (the upright meaning inverted), internal (playing out privately), or excessive/lessened. Pick whichever fits the reading — you don't apply them all at once. More in our guide to reversed cards.
