Four of Wands

Four of Wands

As they say, four walls build a home. The Four of Wands is all about community, celebration and family. On this card we see Two Pixies dancing together around the four wands, which are tied together in a festive ribbon.
Seeing this card tells us that now is the perfect time for you to get together with those you love and feel comfortable around. It could be for a special occasion, or simply just because you just want to hang out. Be it going out to take part in some fun activity, or a nice intimate dinner at home.
This card can also suggest that something in your life will soon be cause for celebration. Perhaps you'll be reaching a certain milestone or goal. Whatever it is, it will leave you feeling very fulfilled and satisfied. Time to celebrate!

Card in Reverse:

The Four of Wands in reverse can suggest some discord in your home life or in a particular friend group. It's likely that there is a lot of tension right now.
It's made it difficult for you to celebrate your wins with those you love. Instead of receiving praise and support, you find them feeling distant and cold. This can leave you feeling a lack of confidence in your group, causing you to question your relationships and feel lonely. Things like this can happen from time to time. Sometimes it's completely out of our control and has nothing to do with us. Ask around to see what's going on with your loved ones, it's possible that whatever it is that is causing tension isn't related to you. And if it is, ask what you can do to make things better.

Upright: The Four of Wands in love suggests gatherings celebrating love! Be it for an engagement, a wedding, or something else entirely. An engagement or wedding celebration doesn't necessarily have to be your own either, you could be invited to one sometime soon.
Celebrations in love also don't have to mean romantic love. You may feel a different type of love from certain communities and gatherings.
Whatever it is, it's going to be great!

Reversed: You may be experiencing some conflict in your family and/or romantic life at this time. The Four of Wands card reversed in love can also suggest incompatibilities within a close group or community you're a part of, be it family or a group of friends.
If you're currently in a relationship and things are approaching moving to the next step, you could be experiencing cold feet. Committing yourself to someone can be amazing and also a bit scary. Ask yourself where these feelings are coming from, then decide where to go from there.

Upright: Things at work are going smoothly between you and your colleagues/clients. Perhaps you've made a new friend group at work! The Four of Wands can sometimes indicate that a work party or group activity at work will be taking place sometime soon. If so, it will create a stronger bond with you and your new work pals.

Reversed: You may be feeling a bit unwelcomed at work right now. Perhaps you feel like you're not fitting in and you're struggling to find a place to co-exist. Ask yourself if there is anyone else there struggling with the same thing, or if there is anything you can do to try and change things. If not, perhaps it might be in your best interest to look for a job elsewhere.
Alternatively, perhaps you are or are soon going to experience some conflict at work. This could potentially cause some real strain between you and your colleagues. If it hasn't happened yet, stay calm and see if there is anything you can do to prevent any conflict from happening.
