Public Recognition of Victory

Congratulations, you’re a winner! The Six of Wands depicts a victory parade, complete with laurel crown and victory wreath. This card depicts public recognition of triumph or reaching a major creative milestone. Not only have you succeeded, people know it.

Enjoy the Moment

If it’s a Six of Wands moment for you, enjoy it! Get that external validation. You’ve worked hard to achieve whatever it is you have achieved, so let your confidence grow. If imposter syndrome is preventing you from basking in the glow, throw it right out the door. You’ve shown everyone that you deserve this victory. Let yourself believe it as well.

Position in Your Spread

All this being said, pay attention to where the Six of Wands is positioned in your spread. Is it an omen of victory, or a suggestion that your goals are based on others recognizing your success? Public recognition is wonderful when you earn it, but it’s not great as a motivating desire. Even at its most pure and glorious, the Six of Wands doesn’t mean that you’re done. Take the time to revel in your many laurels, but don’t rest on them. Enjoy the moment, let it fuel your confidence, and keep going.
