Three of Wands

Three of Wands

The Three of Wands shows us a Pixie standing very confidently, holding on to one of the 3 wands planted into the ground. They've made a plan and are committed to seeing it through.
This card suggests that you are planning, or are going to plan for the future with more determination. Things around your plan could be going very smoothly, making you feel more in control and confident in your decisions. The Three of Wands can be a sign that you are creating a stable foundation for yourself and your future.
The Three of Wands can tell us that there are more opportunities coming your way. Be cautious at this time, as not every opportunity is going to benefit you as greatly as others may. With your new confident approach to life, you're going to notice that there are more opportunities than you expected. Be open minded and challenge yourself to step out of your comfort zone.

Reverse:

Confidence, Growth, Foresight, Progress, Limitless

Upright:

Limitations, Obstacles, Frustration, Delays

Card in Reverse:

The Three of Wands in reverse can suggest that perhaps you've been on a spiritual journey for quite some time, but you're not achieving what you'd hoped for. You may be feeling unfulfilled or like something is blocking you. The Three of Wands is here to tell you that all your hard work has not been for nothing. The struggles you've pulled yourself through may not have been what you asked for, but perhaps they are what the universe felt you needed at the time. They may have helped you grow in other ways you didn't expect.
This card can also tell us that perhaps right now you are living a life of reaction rather than action. Instead of taking control of your life and making plans for the future, you're reacting to your life around you as it is. While it is good to live in the moment, it's also good to be prepared. The Three of Wands is suggesting that maybe now would be a good time to set some time aside and make plans for your future.

Upright: The Three of Wands tells us that you may be moving on to the next phase of your relationship. Be that mean agreeing to be someone's partner, agreeing to marriage, making some sort of change, making plans for a trip, or adding a new member to the family. Alternatively, if you have no current love interests, it could mean you're simply just ready to start dating. The Three of Wands is all about feeling ready to move forward and doing so with conviction.

Reversed: Sometimes things don't go as planned. We can't be right all the time. You may be feeling like you want to hide away from the world right now, but the Three of Wands is here to tell you that it would be best if you faced your issues head on. Perhaps there is something inside you that needs addressing.
This card can also remind us that we cannot force love. When we try to force a relationship to move forward, it often does the opposite.

Upright: New opportunities are presenting themselves to you at this time! Weigh your options and make sure that the decision you go with is the best one.
Your career may be leading you to make certain choices that you once never thought you'd make. This is a great opportunity to grow and expand.

Reversed: Things may be a little frustrating right now. You might be feeling stuck or maybe things just aren't going as you had hoped they would. You might be feeling like you want to explore more opportunities, but they some how keep falling through the cracks. Take some time to reflect on past actions, what plans can you put in to place that will help you move forward?
