The Four of Wands reversed is a card which means joy, celebration and appreciation for how far you’ve already come on the journey. Well done!
You are worthy of a break and to soak in with all the goodness that you’re manifesting.
The Four of Wands Reversed
Unlike many others in the world, you’re actually making progress. You’ve taken action when others won’t and have put yourself forward through the challenges.
Sure! You may not have actually accomplished as much as you’d have liked, but it doesn’t matter so much. What matters is that you’ve actually done the work.
All too often people celebrate for no reason. They’ve done nothing! Then you have others who work relentlessly with no breaks or parties to celebrate such milestones.
We’re here to tell you that it’s your time to stop, reflect and appreciate for where you’ve come to.
Card analysis
The Four of Wands reversed is a card we’ve analyzed with the Rider Waite standard deck. You’re welcome to use any that you desire.
On this card we see appearing before us a party. It represents they’re celebrating something that actually happened. It wasn’t a birthday party but a true achievement by an individual or group.
They’ve set this time aside. The going was tough and there was times when giving up was certainly an option. In fact – people betted on them giving up….but they didn’t!
Through perseverance they’ve made it through to the current victory, but they aren’t done yet! Oh no – there’s still work to do. At least, for now, they’re able to pause and celebrate this win.
Your party
It’s easy to see their party, but what about your party? It’s easy to get caught up in progress during our physical life existence and not stop to “smell the roses” so to speak.
People may have considered you cold or unsociable. They don’t realize the pressures that you’re actually under. You don’t have to have an all out party – but just a few hours away could be just what the doctor ordered.
For most people in the spiritual community, even just going dancing for an hour or two at home is enough. Feel that joy and appreciation guide its way through your body from the crown to the root chakra.
This isn’t a time to merely continue celebrating. Many make this mistake actually! It’s a temporary check-point in the road where you can let your hair down for a moment.
Self improving mastery
You have hopes and dreams that are beginning to finally manifest. For so long you’ve waited for these things to actually happen and they certainly are!
Part of your self improvement and mastery involves posessing joy in your life. You need to experience that sweet nectar that others experience, except they didn’t do the work!
You’ll be able to feel this joy without the guilt. Upon the next mission, you’ll be looking forward to the bigger party at the end of this very hurdle.
Even if you’re on the journey and refuse to stop, then learn to laugh a little or simply smile at the challenges that come in your direction. They are merely lessons to be learned.
Going forward
Often we’re caught up in the “doing” that we can’t find the time nor desire to experience the tangible results. Essentially – we must ask ourselves ask to why we’re working so hard.
Our pride and ego can get in the way. It says “I’ll celebrate one day, but for now…I must WORK!” and this blueprint is commonly found in the entrepreneurial space. Even the most hardened workers must find the time to rest and recover.
From such a place, we can experience bliss while thinking of new heights to conquer.
