What the Six of Diamonds Means
The Six of Diamonds is a gift, and the question of what it costs. Six is the number of harmony and exchange, and here it means generosity, help given and received, a present or a favour. Old cartomancers hung a warning on it about marriage: a union entered too early, or a partner who takes more than they give. The card is not against giving; it asks for balance. Drawn for a question, the Six says kindness is coming, and that you should notice whether it flows both ways.
Six of Diamonds in Love
Generosity in a relationship, or a gift that carries expectations. The Six of Diamonds is good for couples who share fairly and a caution for anyone giving to earn love. If you are asking about commitment, the old warning applies: do not rush into a union to settle a debt.
Six of Diamonds in Work and Money
A favour, a bonus, help from a colleague, a client who pays promptly. Reciprocate. The Six of Diamonds also suits work that involves giving: charity, service, care, hospitality. Be careful with promises about money.

The Suit of Diamonds
Diamonds are the suit of the material world: money, property, contracts, news, journeys with a purpose, and the people who deal in them. A reading full of Diamonds says the matter is practical, and that the answer will arrive as something concrete: a message, a payment, an offer, a trip. The suit is neither kind nor cruel; it describes what is on the table. Old cartomancers gave the suit the autumn, the harvest season, and matched it with the Pentacles of the tarot.
The Six in Every Suit
The Six means harmony, flow, help along the way; the suit decides where.
