  • Recognition
The Six of Wands tarot is the minor arcana counterpart of the Major Card Chariot. Both of these cards represent moments of victory and triumph. Sometimes in life, all we want to do is to win - to be the number one. You can see this dream in the faces of athletes, politicians, and other champions as they step into the winner's circle. It's all been worth the effort and struggle. I'm the best. I've finally won!

In readings, the tarot Six of Wands appears when you have been working hard toward a goal, and success is finally within reach. The recognition you have sought so long is absolutely yours. Now you can receive the acclaim, reward and honor that you rightfully deserve. If you do not feel close to victory now, know that it is on its way provided you are doing all you can to make it happen. The victory of this card does not have to involve beating someone else. You can triumph over yourself, the environment, or the odds whichever intuitively is the most appropriate for you at this moment.

The Six of Wands also represents a very healthy confidence level and self-esteem. Feeling good about your accomplishments is an important part of success, but too much pride can lead to self-inflation and arrogance. When you see this particular card, check that you are not feeling a superiority complex over others. It is easy to forget that individual achievement is not really individual at all. Our talents begin in the Divine, develop with the love and support of others, and only in the end express it through us. Avoid indulging in excess pride.
