My Relationship with The Five of Wands
When the five arrives to me I know that I need to address my direction. I must stop obsessing over day to day existence, to allow myself to focus on my long term plans. Where is your ultimate destination ?. If the Five of Wands presents itself to you be sure that you will be unable to see beyond your current situation. Ask yourself in these situations, if in a years time the struggles that are presenting themselves to you will still be relevant. Will the small irritations that absorb so much of your time have any long term affect on your future ? Identify repetetive problems that rear their ugly head on a regular basis, commit to erasing these annoyances from your life.The Five of Wands sometimes warns us that we are banging our heads against a brick wall, that we are fighting a losing battle. We need to look beyond our current circumstance, to visualise a new improved us at a point in the future where we have overcome our problems. We need to iron
out our petty differences with those around us, stand up and become accountable for taking charge of our future. Most of all when the Five appears to me I know that I am becoming too involved in the small details, listening too much to the opiniions of others. Sensitivity can be indicated by the Five, I know when this card arrives to ignore sarcasm & negativity, to rise above today, to look forward to an improved tomorrow. The Five gives me the power to achieve a long term goal, I know that I have the strength to struggle through the impending irritating problems, the minor hitches.To move my life forward, closer to my grand plan, away from the restraints of the day to day.

You are being pulled in many directions, are you strong enough to take control ?
