Seven of Wands

Meaning

This card means don’t give up and persevere through setbacks to achieve success.

Tarot Reading

The Seven of Wands’ image depicts a scene from a battle. A man dressed in green holds up a wand in his hand, responding to the wand attacking him in front of him. He seems to be attacking or defending or both. The Seven of the wands represent attack or defense, just like two sides of the same coin: you attack and the opponent defends; and when he counter-attacks, you need to defend. The green color of clothing stands for strength. The warrior’s face in battle is steely, symbolizing the firmness of the attitude. The posture both like offensive and defensive represents the inner weighing and determination. So the Seven of Wands also represents a belief that you shall believe in your own opinions and abilities, and have the insight for righteous discernment.
