In cartomancy with playing cards, the Six of Clubs (6♣) is the card of tiredness and toil.

As all sixes, the Six of Clubs represents difficulties. As the suit of Clubs is concerned with material existence as opposed to the inner realms of the psyche, the card represents fatigue, tiredness and a great expenditure of energy for very little reward. The card is symbolic of static situations where the querent is hardly satisfied.

It is not a tragic card, but it can be a source of annoyance. Often, the Six of Clubs shows the inability of the querent to put a problem behind their back, because it keeps showing up. There is a sense of unresolved tension to this card that makes the querent ill at ease.

In love readings, the Six of Clubs represents relationships that have reached an impasse, where no great excitement is left. Often it represents a tiresome routine without much joy left in it. This is not necessarily enough to break the couple apart, but it can be enough to create sorrow or to make one of the two look elsewhere for some happiness. Sometimes the Six of Clubs can also represent character flaws that make one of the two secretly grow resentful of the other.

In money matters the card brings no satisfaction. Investments tend to stagnate and never really grow, and there could be drains placed on the querent’s finances, though the card by itself is not disastrous. In career readings, the Six of Clubs represent subordinate work and menial tasks, although the notion of subordinate work is not necessarily bad, if good cards attend.

Psychologically the card represents meh periods, apathy, difficulty finding a meaning in something (or in life) and general tiredness. Broadly, when talking about self-developement, the Six of Clubs shines a light on character flaws the querent seems unable to address, but it can also mean the querent is in a rut.
