The '''Five of Wands''' is the fifth card in the suit of [[Wands (Tarot)|Wands]]. It usually stands for imitation and theatricality. The struggle for riches and gain. Self-centeredness.

==General description==
In the [[Rider-Waite Tarot]] deck, [[Pamela Coleman Smith]] depicts the Five of Wands as a group of youths, who are brandishing staves, as if in sport or strife. It is mimic warfare, but also the strenuous competition and struggle of the search after riches and fortune. In this sense it connects with the battle of life.

==Divinatory meaning==
There is little or no evil in this card. At most it may denote stupid and childish persistence in one's own personal opinion. It has something sunny in it and is good for health and wealth in a general way, promoting both, but it is not riches in itself.

The mimic warfare undertaking by the youths points to a sense of theater and performance, which may be indicated here.

If reversed, the card can mean: Litigation, disputes, trickery, and contradictions.
