Nine of Wands
The Nine of Wands depicts a weary warrior, bandaged and guarded, standing before eight wands planted like a hastily built barrier. It symbolizes resilience, stamina, vigilance, and persistence in the face of adversity, as well as the need to release burdens. Upright, it encourages building resilience, maintaining vigilance, and persisting despite hardship. Reversed, it advises breathing, conserving energy, surrendering when necessary, or finding another approach.

Description
A tired warrior stands holding a wand. He has a bandage over one of his eyes and his other arm wraps around his stomach. A clasp bearing a glyph holds his fur-lined cloak tight around him. He stares out wearily at the landscape. Eight wands appear in the ground behind him. They look like a hastily created wall made to keep something out. The ground is flat and worn by time. Nothing grows from the soil.

Visual Description
A solitary, weary man stands holding a tall wand, his other hand resting on the shaft as if steadying himself. He wears a heavy cloak with fur at the shoulders and a cloth bandage around his head, and nine upright wands are planted behind him like a palisade. The ground is rough and sparse, and the Roman numeral IX appears at the top of the card.
