The combination of Air/Water share the
Moist Power. This makes the
5 of Coins fluid, flexible, accommodating and empathetic. The Pentad is the mean between all simple numbers -

The desire of the Pentad for balance and union combine with the flexibility of the
Moist Power to make the
5 of Coins "diplomacy". In an empathetic, understanding way it strives to bring about unions, bonds and agreements. This 5 is adept at striking a balance between two parties (fig.2) or several parties (fig. 1 & 3) with equal finesse.
