#TarotTuesday – 4 of Wands

Welcome to another Tarot Tuesday!

If you are just joining me, let me explain the inspiration to begin these posts. In Texas, and all across the country, Taco Tuesday is a popular day when Tacos are usually 99 cents. So, I had the inspiration, or Angel nudge as I like to think of it, to create a Tarot Tuesday. Each Tuesday I will post a different Tarot card and give its meaning. I pray and ask for the right card that will bring a universal message.

I created a short video to demonstrate how I pull the card for the posts. If you’re interested, here’s a LINK.

Today’s card is the Four of Wands from the Minor Arcana.

You may remember that Wands deal with primal energy, spirituality, inspiration, determination, strength, intuition, creativity, ambition and expansion, and original thought.

In this card, we see happiness and a celebration. I do hope that everyone reading this today will have something to share!

The keywords for the Four of Wands are: Celebration, joy, harmony, relaxation, and homecoming.

This is a card of joyful celebration, blissful happiness and appreciation for the good things in life. When this card appears in a Tarot reading, it is the perfect time to celebrate with those you love most. You may commemorate a significant event or milestone such as a wedding, birthday, homecoming or reunion. Or, you may invite a few of your favorite friends over for an intimate dinner for no particular reason except to revel in each other’s company. Relax and let your hair down – enjoy this special time together!

The Four of Wands can show that you are returning home or to the people and places familiar to you. You feel supported and secure, knowing you are with those who love you and care about you.

Because the Four of Wands associates so closely with the home environment, you may work on improving or renovating your house or are close to finding a new one. Perhaps you recently purchased a home and are getting ready to settle down in your new habitat.

The Four of Wands tells you that after a period of rapid growth and expansion, it’s now time to pause and celebrate what you have achieved so far. Step back for a moment and enjoy the fruits of your labor. Acknowledge your hard work and give yourself permission to take a small break before embarking on the next phase of your journey. It’s essential you observe these smaller milestones.

In numerology, four symbolizes stability and firm foundations, and with the Four of Wands, you are now enjoying a period of happiness and security. This card indicates a sense of harmony and balance as well as completion and thus denotes a time of peace and contentment in life that comes as the result of hard-fought efforts.

If you have been working on a project, you will reach an important milestone and have reason to celebrate. If you just wrapped up your project, the Four of Wands represents the personal gratification of a job well done, a goal attained, and a vision beginning to be realized. You should be proud!

For those of you who follow my blog, you know I recently attended an outdoor music festival, so that was an awesome celebration. Then this past weekend, we had a wonderful family celebration for my granddaughter’s ninth birthday. Those are both positive happy events for me. Looking ahead, we are planning a family reunion in September and there has been some doubts about moving forward with it due to COVID-19. But this card tells me to move ahead with the plans. How about you? What do you have to celebrate? Let’s talk!

As always, thank you for joining me! See you next Tuesday for another inspiring message from the Universe via the Tarot Cards!

As always, I use the Rider-Waite Radiance deck and BiddyTarot.com for interpretations.

  1. ‘Four of Wands represents the personal gratification of a job well done, a goal attained, and a vision beginning to be realized.’ The fulfillment of a vision, Jan. The Supreme Court’s ruling on June 15th fulfilled a vision.

  2. This card strikes a deep chord with me, Jan. I’ve been home from the Intensive Care Unit for three-months today! I value the gift of every new dawn. I am so blessed to be able to spend this precious time with my daughter and grandson. My heart is full.

    1. To truly appreciate each new day, you almost have to lose it, Soooz, and you are a testimony to that. I’m so glad you are still here with us, and I celebrate YOU!!! Thank you for stopping by!

  3. This card does indeed resonate with me in its meaning. We just finished a big garden project… finally! And all turned out wonderfully. Also, after my almost burn-out and my break, I have found a place inside of me again which holds a lot more peace. I sleep better and I am not that quickly stressed out anymore. Amazing. Then I am about to publish my new website… another project which is almost concluded (when even only the first big step to go public). AND in 10 days, my husband and I are celebrating our both 50th birthdays together with lots of friends and family. So many things which resonate with this card!!

    1. Wow, Erika!! Happy 50th Birthday!!! I remember when I turned 50. It was a hard one for me, for some reason, and I told my husband, “we can stay home and I can mope around or we can go somewhere.” We went to New Orleans and had a wonderful time! Celebrate every accomplishment, no matter how small! Thank you for stopping by today!

      1. I cannot believe I am already 50…I got stuck somewhere between 15 and 35 I guess😄 so, who cares about the number😄😄I am glad you enjoyed your day and it helped you to slip over the treshold😊
        Exactly, every accomplishment is important to make us aware of and enjoy it! 😊

    1. I happen to disagree with you, Craig. You have a lot to celebrate. Maybe it’s the little things that are escaping your attention. AND, Father’s day is coming!

  4. Celebrating Father’s Day for all the dads present and past in our family and granddaughter’s 23rd birthday this month! <3 June is always a month to celebrate life in general with friends and family and count our blessings!

  5. Our county is finally going “green” this Friday, so a lot of businesses will be reopening. That’s cause for celebration. I just hope the virus doesn’t make a comeback when restrictions are lifted here.

    1. I think celebration with caution would be the way to go, Mae! We are being made to be self-responsible. Take care, and thank you for stopping by!

    1. After I saw your post yesterday, Colleen, I knew this card was for you! 🙂 The Universe is smiling on you and I’m smiling WITH you! Thanks for stopping by!

  6. This card definitely speaks to me. I’m celebrating my first short story (it’s almost ready). And I met with some dear friends this past weekend for the first time since February. It felt great to be surrounded by their energy once again. 🙂

    1. Whoo Hoo!!! I love how the cards are always timely, Yvette! Thanks for stopping by, and congrats on finishing your short story!

    1. Yay! Glad to be of help, sweet lady! If nothing else, celebrate the wonder of having another day of life! Thank you for stopping by. Love you too!

    Beginning the day with a hopeful card is terrific. In our area, the pandemic restrictions lift today! Everything is open. I’m hoping everyone stays healthy while celebrating this momentous step. ♥

    1. I think the idea is that everyone takes self-responsibility. So, as always in life, follow your gut and let the Angels guide you. Hugs, sweet friend, and thanks for stopping by!

    I love a celebration card…yay! I hope this means things are winding down and good will pour forth from it all:)
