Six of Pentacles
An ordinary power strip transfers current through its outlets to different appliances, allowing all tools to function properly at the same time. As an intermediary, the power strip works diligently, and as long as the appliances receive current through it, each can perform its role and operate smoothly.
Here the “distribution” of the power strip becomes especially important. Through a parallel circuit, it allocates the necessary power to each tool. Every appliance requires a different wattage, yet each receives just enough to function as it should. You do as much as your ability allows, and although rewards differ, they are distributed according to contribution and capability. It reflects the basic foundations of real life. Like a layered cake being divided downward, the further it goes, the tighter things become.
UPRIGHT
Fairness, downward distribution, allocation of resources, hierarchy, balance, mutual need, dominance and submission, necessities, uncomfortable but difficult to leave relationships.
REVERSED
Unequal distribution, misjudging value, oversharing, being taken from, wanting to disrupt stability, charity, exploitation, selfishness and stinginess.
