Description
The Five of Wands depicts the presentation of a silver candelabra by a figure that is situated out of the frame. Shining, yet vulnerable, the flames begin to flicker in the wind. An opposing figure seizes this opportunity and begins to douse the flames with a pair of bellows. Similarly, a painter can spill their deepest emotions onto a canvas, presenting us with a heart-wrenching composition.
Vulnerability and Criticism
Even in this moment of vulnerability, there will always be an individual who attempts to diminish the painter's creation with snide remarks. A malevolent opportunist will always attempt to ridicule those who express their truest selves. With malice that is born from insecurity, the envious will aim to silence all those that outshine them.
