Shadowscapes Tarot I tend to like 5 of Wands, but then again I do like a healthy round of competition. 5 of Wands can mean conflict but it can also mean pitting yourself against setbacks, delays, people. If we are never challenged, we never grow. It can also mean that you need to stand up for yourself or in something you believe in. But with 5 of wands the question usually is; which hill do you want to die on? Pick your battles strategically and make your words and deeds count. 1. At work my competition seems to be... I am meeting the challenge by... 2. The following disputes are in play right now... the one I am going to choose to defend is... and I will do that by... 3. How do you feel about competition, does it fill you with energy or with dread? How do you respond to conflict?

The Phantomwise Tarot The five of wands is one of those cards that makes it feel like the world is against you. You enter the slow lane at the supermarket, your family and friends are squabbling to downright fighting, your boss turns down your brilliant idea, you spill coffee of course on your lovely ivory dress. The five of wands carries the energy of competition, struggle, fights and disharmony. As much as a day like that really can get on ones nerves, it is how we deal with aggravating circumstances; because these kinds of things make or break us. The stress levels that affect our health, our emotional well-being and our relationships. How do you manage with setbacks? 1. When I hit a run of bad luck I usually react in the following ways... 2.
