Card of the Week: Six of Wands
We're back to minor arcana this week, and this card's description is short and sweet. As you can see, we have a man who is proudly showing off wands, each a trophy-like symbol of achievement. He is standing at the top of a hill, surrounded by contented cats.
Archetypal Meaning(s):
As you can probably guess from the picture, this card symbolizes conquest, triumph, and good news. It talks of advancement, expectation, and desires realized.
What It Says to Me:
Like I've mentioned in previous posts, I'm waiting to hear back from graduate schools. This card makes me feel hopeful that my efforts will reward me (fingers crossed, right?). We are nearing both my birthday and the "mid March" period that my schools have given me as a vague ballpark for when I'll get responses; I can't help but hope these two forces collide and give me something good!
Of course, this could also symbolize a smaller victory of some kind. We'll just have to see what the week brings! How does this card resonate (or not!) with your week?
