5 of Wands: TarotCraft Daily Community Card 21 August 2021

The 5 of Wands Tarot card from the Universal Waite tarot deck. Five figures hold five long, slim tree branches. The branches have green leaves sprouting from their tips and upper halves. At first glance, it might seem that the five characters are fighting with the wands. Closer inspection reveals relaxed body language and facial expressions that are focused but not angry. They may be play fighting, trying to work out how to put something together, or simply at the mercy of undirected energy. The figures stand on the grass. Two pairs of them seem to look at each other, with the fifth looking up.

Today’s Community Tarot Card is the 5 of Wands. There is an opportunity to make a change and start afresh if you choose to. There is magickal energy available to you now that can get a "stuck" situation moving.
