The '''Six of Wands''' is the sixth card in the suit of [[Wands (Tarot)|Wands]]. It usually stands for a victor triumphing, bringing great news. Expectation crowned with
its own desire.

==General description==
In the [[Rider-Waite Tarot]] deck, [[Pamela Coleman Smith]] depicts the Six of Wands as a laureled horseman bearing a staff adorned with a laurel crown; footmen with staves are at his side.

==Divinatory meaning==
The element of thought on the earthy house of [[Virgo]] must naturally bring forth knowledge of every detail and reveal mistakes or shortcomings; it promotes efficiency, and the latter is one of the principal meanings of the card. Here again is a double mercurial expression, so this card must denote special abilities, capacities, technical insight, and the practical arrangement of details.

It is also a card of messages. The man on horseback brings good news that will be shared by everyone present. The laurels represent peace, so the news may also signal the end of a conflict. The double [[Mercury]] of the Three of Wands suggests the news will come quickly.

If reversed, the card can mean: Apprehension and fear. Treachery and disloyalty. Indefinite delay.
