General Love Meaning
This card is not always comfortable to sit with. It speaks of being bone-tired and unsure of how to gather enough energy to do what needs to be done. It's time to dig deep, accept external help, and be kind to yourself. We're all human and life isn't always easy. If you snap at your children out of frustration or have a small nervous breakdown, then it's not the end of the world. You can apologize and learn from it. Sometimes, that's all we can do.
Single and Loving It
Isn't it just like the universe to mess with your game right when you're feeling great? Don't be surprised if someone from your past returns and brings all their baggage. Well, forewarned is forearmed, and at least now, they won't catch you off guard when this person from your past tries to pull some basic nonsense on you.
Ready for Love / Dating
When the Nine of Wands appears in your reading and you want to get back into dating, it's a sign that you should think again. It will probably be exhausting and not staying up all night having incredible sex. Of course, you have free will, so you can do whatever you want, but don't say the tarot didn't try to warn you.
Committed Relationship
If you've been taking care of everyone else in your life, this is a sign that you need to focus some energy on yourself before you burn out. You might need a self-care day where you disconnect from the world and pamper yourself. You've made it through, now make sure to take care of yourself too!
Struggling Relationship
Do you know why you're fighting? Can you remember what started all the arguments in the first place? A sense of weariness has taken hold of you and your other half probably feels the same way. It's time to call a truce.
The End
To say that what you just went through was a shit show is an understatement. You feel emotionally drained and physically exhausted. It's time to rest now and leave that mess behind. If you or someone you know is in physical danger, seek help or help that person find a safe place as soon as possible.
Visual Description
A weary woman sits in the foreground with one hand pressed to her forehead, eyes closed and shoulders rounded. Behind her a low sofa holds two children who are arguing, faces flushed and hands gesturing. Nine upright wands form a fence-like row between the woman and the children, their tops showing small carved shapes and the background is a pale, warm sky.
