i won’t lie: the five of wands is one of my least favorite cards. the fives in each suit are hard, but for some reason cups, swords, and pentacles all seem more manageable. i just hate being in conflict, or being scattered, or being lost.
i don’t mind chaos if i can organize it, but the five of wands asks us to sit in the discomfort of not-knowing. it reminds us that conflict can be necessary. it whispers of secrets found only when you wander off the beaten track.
this week, my darlings, try to listen for any messages discomfort may bring you - even if they’re as simple as something like “i should probably stop slouching over my laptop and do some yoga.” (guilty as charged.)
