Five of Wands: Tests

The Five of Wands is an interesting card because it brings up the idea that you are currently surrounded by people with such strong voices and opinions that you may find it difficult to actually be heard yourself. You may find these individuals in any area of your life – even within your own household. The angels wish you to know that even though your communication skills and patience are being tested, things will go better than you may think. So, if you are seeing family, friends, work colleagues or hosting meetings, ensure that you think before you speak. 

Hosting Meetings, Family and Friends Could Be Tricky

Whether you are hosting meetings, seeing friends, family or work colleagues, there is potential for tensions to rise and to even boil over. Your angels and guides indicate that they are with you always to provide help and guidance when you need it. Look out for disagreements and arguments that are based on purely subjective feelings and opinions rather than on hard facts. 

You need to take the higher ground as you remain calm in order to express how you think and feel. Your thoughts and opinions are as valid as the next person’s so don’t allow anyone to belittle you in any way. 

Stay Calm

Having said all this, try not to panic or to worry about situations that you have no control over. You might be driven crazy by someone who just won’t stop boasting or by a person who has a ridiculously high opinion of themselves. The advice from the angels is to wait things out for the moment. You will know when the time is right to act. If you can, simply remove yourself from difficult situations for the moment. 

Small disagreements may become huge battles if you’re not careful. As we all know, needless conflict is best avoided. With this in mind, try not to lose your temper. It’s not worth it. Avoiding drama is your best route forward!
