- FIVE OF WANDS Tarot Card Meaning | Stars and Tarot
TAROT CARDS: FIVE OF WANDS Be selective in your battles for sometimes peace is better than being right.’’ DESCRIPTION In Rider-Waite deck, The Five of Wands shows five staff-wielding men amid a fight. Upon closer look, we see that the men have no armor, and that no one seems to be injured. This suggests that nature of the conflict is a competitive game, rather than a battle. The main meaning of The Five of Wands is facing some sort of strife. Generally, there will be a lot of contradicting ideas in the surrounding environment where the person needs to challenge their skills and beliefs amongst others. It usually refers to an endeavor in work/career involving a group, however it can be about an internal struggle or a conflict amongst personal relationships as well. Depending on the other cards in the reading, this card can represent positive aspects to a challenge or competition, as well as the negative ones. When positively affected, The Five of Wands stands for healthy competitive spirit and productive arguments. When negative, the emotions and actions involved are more spiteful, envious and greedy. Number 5 represents competition, individualism and motivation. Five of Wands Keywords Conflict Competition UPRIGHT REVERSED Inner Conflict Power Struggles Lack of clarity Upright Five of Wands Guidance: It is you against the world. The Five of Wands indicates that there is a conflict, confrontation or competition brewing in your environment. How you deal with this situation is entirely up to you. Whether you choose to stand your ground or retreat, don’t make your decisions based on hate and anger. The advice of the card is: Choose your battles wisely. Love: The Five of Wands can indicate tension between partners caused by competition, jealousy and power struggles. Often the problem is minor, such as a couple arguing over household chorus. However, it can also indicate a much bigger issue involving a third party competing for affection. Healthy communication is the key to resolving your issues. If you are single, this card can represent your internal struggles with the past, or a love triangle situation you may be in. There is some sort of competition/conflict around you or the person you are interested in. Work/Finances: The Five of Wands most frequently shows up as a symbol of fierce competition in relation to work and finances. A competitive workplace can be both beneficial and destructive. You want to continually fight for your goals but on the other hand, all the stress and arguments are wearing you off. This card advises you to keep your cool and play fair. In financial position, it indicates heated arguments concerning money. Health: In relation to health, this card can be a warning for stress and struggle. You may be working or living in a stressful/competitive environment which creates tension in your mind and body. When you are dealing with a health problem, it is very understandable that you demand answers and solutions right away. This can cause frustration and arguments, which creates further stress. Positivity and patience are the key to any recovery. Spirituality: You are not meant to see eye to eye with everyone. Our experiences and choices are what makes us all unique individuals. Instead of fighting over differences, we can all work to find a common ground. If you love and accept everyone (including yourself) for who they are, regardless of any disagreements, you will find an that you are capable of so much love. Guidance: When the Five of Wands is reversed, you are advised to handle heated situations calmly and rationally. You may be up against harsh competition, unfairness and dishonesty. Whether you choose to stand up for yourself or retreat, don’t let resentment devour you inside out. Know what you are getting into, it may not worth the trouble. Love: The Five of Wands reversed talks about power struggles and toxic fights in a relationship. Instead of listening to each other, perhaps you are playing little mind games to provoke one another. Every relationship is a teamwork: There is no competition, or a prize in the end. If you want to take some time off to think things through, really think about where you stand in the relationship. You may be compromising too much in order to avoid fights. Alternatively, there may be an argument about an affair or someone interfering in your love situation. Work/Finances: In a work reading, the Five of Wands reversed warns you to be extra careful about who and what you trust. It is easy to forget about high moral values when it comes to money and competition. Not everyone around you is being fair and loyal. Avoid workplace troublemakers, cutthroat deals and practices. If you are in the blame for this, you need to find a better way to show your value. Most importantly, make sure you have a clear perspective about where you stand. You should never compromise your own values in order to avoid confrontation or to fit in. Regards to your finances, you are advised avoid unnecessary arguments. Health: In relation to health, the Five of Wands reversed talks about a battle of some sort. You may be fighting an illness or a stressful situation. The last thing you want to do when you have any health problem is to expose yourself to fear and anxiety. Because this card sometimes represents competitive sports, in reversed position it could mean sports injuries and exhaustion. Spirituality: Spiritually, the Five of Wands reversed represents inner conflicts. Allow yourself to find a peace of mind by resolving ongoing battles in your head. If the cause of your restlessness is others, remember: Not every conflict needs to end with a winner and a loser. You can always agree to respectfully disagree. On the other hand, know when to defend yourself. If someone is crossing a line, you need to let them know as well.

- THE STRENGTH Tarot Card Meaning | Stars and Tarot
TAROT CARDS: THE STRENGTH Man conquers the world by conquering himself.’’ Zeno of Citium DESCRIPTION Disclaimer: Depending on the deck, the Strength card is numbered either 8th or 11th. Here I am following Rider-Waite deck, which orders strength as the 8th card and justice as 11th. What a powerful card to look at! In many decks you will see the Strength card symbolized as a young woman with a tamed lion. Woman here represents raw inner strength, while the lion is the urges and instincts that she learned to control. Lion is clearly stronger in nature but shows no resistance to the woman in the imagery. She doesn’t use restraints or force to subdue the lion. Of course, it cannot be easy to achieve such feat, therefore just like the Chariot card, this card signifies power of will and courage. The difference is, while the Chariot’s power is more assertive and outwardly, the Strength is calm, collected and compassionate. In order to overcome emotions and self-limiting beliefs that hold you back, such as fear, anger and doubt, you must have the courage to look within. The lion is your mind. Tame it, calm it. Overtime, you will be amazed how your instinctive response to give up will be replaced with empowering thoughts that puts you in control. Number 8 represents mastering the balance of material and spiritual power. The Strength Keywords Perseverance Control Courage UPRIGHT REVERSED Insecurity Fear Doubt The Strength Upright Guidance: Think of the Strength as an encouraging message from your intuition saying, ‘’ you got this.’’ This card is not about forcing to change the outcome of a difficult situation, it is about believing in yourself no matter the circumstances. Forgiveness is much easier than resentment. Love: As a person, the Strength is a confident lover. And as a couple, it symbolizes a powerful, deep bond built on trust and respect. It can also talk about a dynamic where one of you is wilder, and the other acts as an emotional compass. If you are having problems, you will get the best results with a calm and collected approach. If you are single, first get comfortable with yourself. Confidence is attractive! Work/Finances: The Strength card loves hard work, especially the work you did on improving yourself. If you have worked with honesty, integrity and determination; your valuable qualities are going to pay off. If you want a raise, promotion, recognition or a fresh start: believe in yourself. Perseverance will bring confidence, and eventually success. Health: The Strength refers to endurance and self-improvement. Regardless of your condition, learn to harness the power of positive thinking. This is an especially great card if you are already working towards a health goal. Even if the results you are expecting is coming gradually, appreciate the good things, big or small. Spirituality: The Strength card here is great, because it is all about learning to find a balance between ego and spirit, and between the two is you. You are not supposed to pick a side or repress the ego. Focus on harmonizing them instead. Positive affirmations can transform your outlook, and ultimately your reality. Guidance: Reversal of this card doesn’t mean you are powerless. You just need to become aware and claim your inner strength, which is rooted in resilience. Whenever you doubt yourself, think of all the times you fell and got back up again. Nothing and no one can take that away from you. Love: The Strength reversed often points to self-esteem issues and power struggles. You may be sacrificing too much in your relationship. If you or your partner is acting out of impulse and temper, instead of continuing to argue, allow yourself to think things through calmly. Invest more time and love in your own happiness. If you are single, realize that you deserve love, affection and respect from others, but first from yourself. Don’t be afraid to take initiative if you have feelings for someone. Work/Finances: You need to control your emotions, so they don’t control you. When you do this, you will not only make better decisions, but also gain more self-confidence. The success you seek depends on eliminating your fear of failure and anxiety. Don’t let a setback disappoint you, let it motivate you instead. Facing challenges makes you stronger. Don’t make impulsive financial choices. Health: Issues may be arising from the amount of stress and pressure in your daily life. You may be feeling powerless over a health situation, but you are not! It is not what happens to you, it is how you respond to it. If you make a conscious decision to live a healthier life and take better care of yourself, your body will respond to it. Spirituality: When the Strength is reversed, pay attention to where your thoughts and emotions are leading you. If you realize that negative self-talk is the main theme, developing more awareness can help you take control of your life. To do that, learn to trust your insight.

- SEVEN OF WANDS Tarot Card Meaning | Stars and Tarot
TAROT CARDS: SEVEN OF WANDS Don’t be discouraged. It is often the last key in the bunch that opens the door.’’ DESCRIPTION The illustration of the Seven of Wands card depicts a figure taking a stand against six wands emerging from below. He seems to have the high ground, which means that he holds the most defensively advantageous position over his opponents. The Seven of Wands is a about showing resistance, courage and perseverance in the face of adversity. It can mean defending one’s territory and their beliefs or standing tall against bullying and opposition. The transition from the Six of Wands to the Seven of Wands shows that a previously secure and peaceful situation is now being challenged. Most of us endured circumstances where we ended up feeling undervalued, intimidated and resentful. You have fought long and hard for what you have, and now the circumstances require you to protect it. Life never stops changing, evolving and teaching. In this journey, our innate worthiness must be one constant that always remains. By only defining our core values and believing our strength we can stand against anything life throws at us. Number 7 represents mental activity and determination. Seven of Wands Keywords Defensiveness Protecting your ground Challenge UPRIGHT REVERSED Giving up Hesitance Loss of confidence Upright Seven of Wands Guidance: The Seven of Wands indicates that you are in a defensive position against a stiff competition, argument or a threat. You are being challenged to stand your ground. It can be overwhelming when you are undeterred and outnumbered but do not lose sight: The obstacle you face now will help you discover your inner strength in the end. Love: The Seven of Wands suggests that this is a time where you want to react defensively and establish clear boundaries. In a relationship, two partners may have very opposing views. It may also be the case that some family members disapprove of your partner. Whatever the argument is, the approach should be mutual respect. Stand your ground for what you believe is right for you and don’t compromise your self-worth. It also indicates someone being emotionally closed off and hesitant to let anyone in their heart. Work/Finances: You are against a cutthroat competition or a bully authority. The opponents may be playing dirty and you may need to fight for your reputation. Stand firm in your decisions and remain strong. If you consistently prove your determination and skills in the long term, you will persevere. It may indicate a financial struggle or argument as well. Health: The Seven of Wands indicates that outside frustrations may be jeopardizing your health. Right now, you have a lot on your plate, take some time to detach yourself from stressful situations and relax. If you are fighting off an illness, your will and inner strength will be very important in your recovery. Spirituality: You may be getting opposing views from others about your spiritual beliefs and moral values. Every individual has a right to his own belief, religion and thought. While standing your ground, treat this situation with respect and tolerance, but you should also expect others to do the same. Guidance: You are feeling overwhelmed and confused in the face of a conflict. The Seven of Wands reversed can be interpreted as a suggestion for you to acknowledge and take back your own power. Even if you are battle weary, you must never tolerate being undervalued or disrespected. If the responsibilities are too much to handle, lay your burdens down. Love: The Seven of Wands reversed can indicate that you are not able to reach a mutual understanding with a loved one at this time. You may be dealing with a pushy, unreasonable partner. Or your relationship may be receiving opposition from others. Due to past disappointments, he/she may not be ready to fully open their heart. Whatever the case is, it is no use to continue fighting when everyone is emotionally exhausted. If this resonates with you, detach for a while and work on healing yourself. Work/Finances: When the Seven of Wands is reversed in work/finances position, it represents exhaustion, confusion and giving up. In order to protect what you have worked for and get back what you have lost, you must remain confident and determined in your decisions. Be aware of jealous competitors and toxic work partners. Health: The Seven of Wands reversed shows that you started to lose hope and confidence to overcome a health problem. Don’t give into fear and what-if scenarios. Deep inside you know you have the strength to battle this situation. Spirituality: In spirituality readings, the meaning of the Seven of Wands reversed is pretty much the same as the upright. You are dimming your own inner voice by listening to opposition from outside only. Believe in yourself. While it is absolutely great to discuss differing life views, you need some time to establish your own truths alone.

- THE CHARIOT Tarot Card Meaning | Stars and Tarot
TAROT CARDS: THE CHARIOT One is never born great. It is the willpower and the action, that make one great.’’ M.K. Soni DESCRIPTION In a carriage driven by two sphinxes, one black and one white, a charioteer stands tall and strong. The sphinxes here represent delicate balance of opposing forces, like yin and yang. Instead of using harnesses, he is commandeering them purely by the power of his mind. His armor is decorated with crescent moon and stars, which illustrates his spiritual wisdom. In ancient Rome, chariots were known as a fast, light and convenient way to travel. Therefore, they were most commonly used in racing games rather than warfare. The motto of the Chariot card is ‘’I can and I will.’’ When you pick this card, focus and discipline will drive you to your desired destination. However, remember that life is not a smooth ride. It has bumps and bruises, and that’s what makes the journey worth it. Rather than letting the obstacles define you, use them to master yourself. On a negative note, he is both his best friend and worst enemy. It is so easy for the Chariot to block his success by giving into his shadow side, self-hindrance. And lastly, in the most literal sense the Chariot also could signify travel and vehicles. Number 7 represents clarity, mental strength and enlightenment. The Chariot Keywords Determination Willpower Journey Control Balance UPRIGHT REVERSED Aimlessness Loss of control Lack of willpower Obstacles The Chariot Upright Guidance: You have a goal set in your mind, and recognizing your potential is paramount to reaching it. Be bold enough to actively go after your dreams. Don’t let a few obstacles on the road discourage you to move forward: more you overcome; more you will become confident in yourself. Alternatively, you may expect a road trip soon. Love: Generally, it means that your relationship is getting stronger. However, any meaningful relationship has issues and obstacles. If you are having common communication problems, the Chariot suggests learning to work together as a team. Listen and address your emotional needs to each other. If you are single, you may be moving on from a past break-up, discovering your self-reliance and emotional independence along the way. Work/Finances: When it comes to your long-term goals, you are ambitious and hard-working. The road ahead may be long, but success is at your reach. When you encounter problems, remember that you are the solution. This is an excellent time to start pursuing new business or investing ideas. The Chariot can also represent leadership or work-related travels. Health: The Charioteer is energetic, youthful and in full control over his mind and body. You may be feeling extra motivated to start a diet or exercise routine. If you are having health problems, remember that recovery is a journey- therefore, you need to remain patient and strong. In any case, your willpower plays a big part in improving your wellbeing. Spirituality: The Chariot invites you to take a voyage of self-discovery. Open your heart, take chances, be open-minded. Don’t be afraid to expand your horizons; no one gets anywhere without a few obstacles along the way. Once you build momentum, focus and purpose, you are going to master your own reality. Guidance: The Chariot reversed indicates that you are overwhelmed with your emotions. When you hit a wall in life, instead of giving up, find a way to work around it. On the other hand, the biggest obstacle is our minds. Climbing out of self-hindrance is hard, but you know deep within you that you are more than capable of moving beyond the disappointment and fear. Love: When reversed, the Chariot has a pessimistic, unsure and unwilling point of view towards love. You may be tempted to rush into a relationship or an argument with someone. Whether you are single or in a relationship, take a step back, calm your mind and have a conversation with yourself for a little while. In other words, you need to resolve inner conflicts before you act on temper or sadness. Work/Finances: Have you encountered an obstacle that has thrown you off course? Rather than the obstacle itself, your emotional response may be the real issue here. You may be rash, indecisive and frustrated. The suggestion is confidence, commitment and self-discipline. If you are prone to start many projects, get overwhelmed and leave everything in the middle, this card’s suggestion is to build a momentum that you can realistically keep up with. Don’t take large financial risks. Health: If you feel constantly tired and stressed, it is time to slow down. You may be trying to do too much at once. Even if your mind is weighed down by all the responsibilities and tasks, your biggest priority is your wellbeing. In rare cases this reversal is interpreted as accidents. No need to dwell on it though, just be careful. Spirituality: The Chariot reversed represents stagnated or blocked energies and conflicted emotions. When faced with tough choices or when life gets too noisy, tapping into your inner wisdom is one of the best things you can do. Stillness holds a lot of answers if you are patient enough.

- NINE OF WANDS Tarot Card Meaning | Stars and Tarot
TAROT CARDS: NINE OF WANDS Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.’’ Kahlil Gibran DESCRIPTION A battle-weary man clutching on a wand is standing protectively in front of 8 other wands. He seems to be injured while defending his territory. There are two ways to look at this card. At first glance, you may see an exhausted and weak man looking over his shoulder. What is not immediately recognized is that there is nothing weak about him. He is a survivor, and like all survivors he earned a very important lesson in the end: resilience. They say life is the greatest teacher, because it is also the toughest. Most of the time, we don’t understand its methods. Struggle is one of them. Without challenges or obstacles, we cannot truly discover the depths of our strength. The Nine of Wands highlights the importance of seeing these challenges as an opportunity to grow. So, when you see this card in your reading, remind yourself about the strong survivor under all the weariness. Number 9 represents completion, resolution and inner strength. Nine of Wands Keywords Resilience Test of character Weariness UPRIGHT REVERSED Struggle Defensiveness Weakness Upright Nine of Wands Guidance: While it is true that you had been fighting obstacles for a long time, The Nine of Wands card marks the final battle. It took immense courage and determination to get through, but the completion is near. If you face opposition, now you can rely on your newly acknowledged strength and courage. Now it is time to find support and recovery before you jump in on action again. Love: The Nine of Wands suggests a situation in the past that has made you or your loved one got hurt emotionally. As a result, this person is very guarded and perhaps suspicious. Perhaps someone had to fight for this relationship to work. If you are single, it is hard to open up to someone because exposing your feelings makes you feel like you are vulnerable. Trust and love will triumph over time with your willingness to achieve it. It represents defensive and hesitant feelings. Work/Finances: This card is good news; it shows that the completion you were seeking for is near. After a period of struggle, you are developing success with your well-honed skills and determination. The challenges you faced has made you guarded and controlled with your decisions and finances. There is nothing wrong with being careful, just don’t doubt your wisdom. Now it is not the time to give up! Health: The Nine of Wands indicates that you are winning the battle against a health struggle. Your strength of will is playing a big part on your road to recovery, so if you are feeling exhausted don’t give up. It is important for you to rest, recover and restore your energy mentally and psychically at this time. Spirituality: Facing day-to day challenges has also strengthened you spiritually. You have gained immense wisdom through the challenges of life. Despite the odds, your positivity and faith shine a bright light in the darkness. This light cannot be dimmed by any outside factor, because it is yours. Things are looking up both internally and externally. Guidance: Against your better judgement, you refuse to be adaptable when a situation calls for it. The obstacles you faced has made you doubtful of your own inner strength. The lesson here is to tend to your wounds from the past and acknowledge your courage. Other meaning is that this battle you are fighting has cost you more than you will gain. Know when to cut your losses and move on. Love: In relation to love and relationships, the meaning of the Nine of Wands reversed is pretty much the same as upright. Reliving the same past traumas of heartbreak and unfulfilled expectations is limiting you or your partner from moving on.

- TWO OF WANDS Tarot Card Meaning | Stars and Tarot
TAROT CARDS: TWO OF WANDS Good decisions come from experience. Experience comes from making bad decisions.’’ Mark Twain DESCRIPTION The Two of Wands in the Rider-Waite deck shows a man with a globe in his right hand, watching over the seashore. He stands victoriously in between two wands, holding the one on the left. At first glance, this illustration suggests an ambitious ruler looking to expand his authority. Contemplating figure appears to be a person who strategizes his path forward. He is ambitious and in control, however, his high expectations may get him into unseen troubles. Transition from Ace of Wands to Two of Wands shows converting personal strength to plans, action and expansion. While interpreted, the Two of Wands often represents moving beyond the comfort zone, exploration, travel and new opportunities. Because it is dualistic, it is also a card of tough choices and dilemmas. The Two of Wands often raises some big questions in your head. ‘’What is next?’’; ‘’Is there something better for me out there?’’, ‘’Can I make the leap of faith?’’ or ‘’Should I follow my heart or my mind?’’ If you are in this overthinking stage and a big decision is looming in your life, don't hide from it. Be confident in yourself, step out there and explore your options. Number 2 represents inner wisdom and duality. Two of Wands Keywords Decision making Planning Expansion UPRIGHT REVERSED Lack of strategy Lack of confidence Indecisiveness Dilemma Upright Two of Wands Guidance: The Two of Wands indicates a time of planning and contemplating on your future. You are being aware of new opportunities as well: perhaps an overseas travel, a new love interest or a business offer. The biggest difficulty this card talks about is the decision-making stage. You may be afraid of stepping out of your comfort zone into the unknown territory. Confidence is the key here. Always make your plans carefully, but don’t forget to trust your gut as well. Love: The Two of Wands shows a passionate relationship where partners work together towards a long-term goal. It can also indicate a long-distance relationship and you are planning to meet each other. Since there is an element of split feelings with this card, make sure you are careful and clear with your expectations. If you are single, this card signifies a person that has interest, but perhaps not quite sure what decision to make yet. There may be a third party involved, or they may be simply assessing all their options before fully committing to you. Work/Finances: The Two of Wands represents situations such as overseas opportunities, making future plans, expanding your business and new investments. It is imperative to remain clear headed, focused and confident at this time because there is a tough decision to be made here. This doesn’t mean you need to be afraid of exploring different opportunities. Just make sure to evaluate the pros and cons carefully, especially if you are about to make a ‘risky’ move. Finances: Have a long term strategy and a back up plan in place before you make a decision. Health: The Two of Wands is all about personal strength. It can mean you are working through restoring your health. You may also be split between two options in a situation regards to your health. As long as you are dedicated and responsible about your well-being, you will get good results. The underlying advice of the card is to plan and act carefully. Spirituality: The Two of Wands often shows a dilemma. You may be showing interest to a new spiritual idea or path, but you are not sure what to pursue. On one hand, you want to stick with what you know; on the other, you feel a desire to explore the unknown. The card’s advice is to trust your intuition and don’t act on fear. Have confidence in yourself that you will make the right decision. Guidance: With the Two of Wands in reversed position, you are being advised to reassess your direction and alter your course if necessary. Perhaps you have a great idea, but you are lacking courage, resources or focus to make it a reality. At this time, unforeseen delays and obstacles may arise. Be patient, go over your plans with a clear mind, and believe in yourself. Love: You may face a difficult choice choosing between the ‘comfortable choice’ and an unknown possibility. Whether you are in a relationship or single, it seems you are hesitant to make any move, and you’d rather keep the status quo. In these times of confusion, it is a lot better to make important decisions with a clear mind and focus. On the other hand, it could be that your partner or love interest is not ready to commit yet. You or this person may be going back and forth between two people at this time. Work/Finances: You may have lost something that you are trying to gain back. You feel restricted, unable to make a decision in a seemingly impossible situation. You are possibly split between two choices: On one hand there is a risky, but possibly successful opportunity, on the other your comfort zone and safety net. The Two of Wands reversed suggests that you need more insight and a better strategy to achieve your goals. Remember: future is not set; it is what you make of it. When it comes to your finances, it advises you to focus on your long-term strategy and be careful on how you spend your money. Health: In health context, the Two of Wands reversed indicates a need to recover balance. It is time to release any habits or decisions that no longer serves your health. Especially now, it is not a good idea to take unnecessary risks, and you may need a better understanding before you make a decision. Spirituality: The Two of Wands reversed suggests that something is holding you back from reaching your highest potential. You may be exhausted questioning your purpose, your direction, and the future. It is very easy to get consumed in an overthinking mind. It is time to stop analyzing every situation. Find the balance between your heart and mind; and the rest will follow. Reversed Two of Wands See the previous card: ACE of Wands SEE THE NEXT CARD: THREE OF WANDS Back to Top
