The meaning of the card Six of Wands upright
When the Six of Wands is up in a Tarot reading, it's an indication that achieving a goal is within reach. It's time for you to receive the recognition you've been looking for. It's when you receive all the acclaim, honors and rewards you so richly deserve. You feel that it's all been worth it. Success is near and you must be right. It doesn't necessarily mean victory over someone else. It could be over yourself, the environment or against all odds. A word of caution: Self-esteem is great, feeling good about one's achievements is part of one's success, but you must ensure that you are not arrogant and do not feel superior to others. Success, after all, is very fickle. It's here today, but gone tomorrow!
