Page of Wands

The Page of Wands shows us a young person, dressed in yellow.  The yellow signifies creativity, being positive, or even hopeful.  He also holds a budding staff in his hands - this is a person who can make things happen when he sets his hands to something.  The buds are also a symbol of growth.  The mountains in the background are the challenges of yesterday.  The desert is a symbol of discovery, being alone, or reflection of the past.  The reptiles on the persons outfit represent change, growth, rebirth.

So today certainly is a day of change, learning from the past and taking those lessons to heart and becoming better - better at work at your job or perhaps learning how to handle difficult situations or relationships.  Yesterday is yesterday, reflect but do not dwell on mistakes - take them to heart, see where changes can be made, and move forward to claim the rewards of the future.

Five of Cups, reversed

The Five of Cups in the reversed position would indicate that there is an ending of sorrow, loss, or negativity and more positive days are ahead.  While something negative may have happened in the past, that situation is not what defines you.

The bridge in the background of this card would indicate that there is more in life that needs to be explored - move forward, there are new experiences, fulfilling challenges and new relationships to be made, which is symbolized by the hills in the background.

9 of Wands

The 9 of Wands shows a man who has been beaten, bandaged, but keeping an eye out for the next onslaught that he thinks might be coming.   Sometimes we feel that way when we've been caught in an unexpected battle or fight that seemingly came from no where.  The urge is to build a wall around ourselves, to with draw - sometimes there's a need for that just to regroup, however we cannot allow ourselves to stay behind our wall.  We must get ourselves back out there and attempt and understand what caused the situation in the first place. Sometimes  we'll find that there was no rhyme or reason why the attack came.  In those situations, listen to the Universe as you will receive guidance to deal with the person or situation.  At other times, we'll find out that the other party had a misperception about us and make amends.  But regardless, we should always be positive, have love in our hearts, and be willing to forgive even when the other party refuses to.
