TODAYS TAROT / ANGEL CARD READING FOR MONDAY, AUGUST 9TH, 2021
🤺🤼♀️ 5 OF WANDS 🤼♀️🤺 What’s your relationship to competition?? 👀
In the Five of Wands, five men appear to be fighting each other, using their wands as weapons.
However, on closer observation, their wands are raised but not striking or injuring anyone. It is as if there is no real purpose or outcome in this chaotic scene other than to create conflict and sow discord amongst the group.
Each man wears a different outfit, symbolising their diverse backgrounds and belief systems, and suggesting that, because of their differences, they cannot find harmony and common ground with one another.

In the Tarot, the Fives typically represent conflict and change, and the Five of Wands is no exception.
This card indicates that you are in the midst of battle, tension, and competition with others and it is impacting your ability to move forward with your goals. Rather than being able to work towards a common goal, you are running up against constant opposition.
With the Five of Wands, everyone is fighting to be heard. But guess what? No one is listening. When everybody has a different opinion, but no-one is stopping to hear each other out, conflict and misunderstandings will run rampant. If you find yourself in this situation, see it as an opportunity to rise above the chaos and disorder.
Take a moment to listen to what others have to say – even if you agree to disagree. The key is to tune in to one another and allow each person to make their case. And perhaps, in the process, their opinions may become softer and quieter. They may also give you the respect you’re seeking and listen to your viewpoint.
Sometimes, this type of conflict and discussion can be very productive, such as with group brainstorming and problem-solving. You need a constructive environment where you can test your ideas and have them challenged (and improved) by others.
You may benefit from establishing a working group, committee or mastermind group with other individuals who bring varying perspectives and experiences. Be open to this debate as a positive contribution to improving the quality of your ideas and actions.
The Five of Wands also encourages diversity and differences of opinion. You may deal with people from different cultures and backgrounds and struggle to accept their way of living. Know that each person has something unique to bring to the table and that you will benefit by learning more about them and what they have to offer.
The Five of Wands encourages an enthusiastic approach to change. Transition (or even transformation) is coming whether or not you like it; your challenge will be in ensuring that everyone is on the same page and dealing with this shift constructively and positively.
Currently, your group’s energy is scattered by misdirected enthusiasm. Everybody has ideas, but no one is there to bring them into a logical path forward. Your role may be in identifying a clear strategy and purpose that can be implemented by all involved..

WOW OKAY so I love this new book I got for fucking 5 dollars at 5 below!! ✨🤣
I love it!! And this is so funny cuz I have never had a very good relationship to competition!! I remember anytime my family would force me to play board games where they would get SUPER INTO IT
I would literally do my BEST to try to LOSE to the best of my ability so I wouldn’t have to play anymore,
That might be just because I fucking hate board games tho 🤔🤔🤔🤔
🤣🤣🤣🤣
BUUUT also like I don’t know how to like accept challenges and make them FUN you know? Once I know something is a competition and I have people who are quote on quote “challenging me for the throne” I like shrivel up into a self doubting shrimp questioning my value on everything I’ve ever done when I start comparing myself to my rivals.🤣🤣🤣
My relationship to my sister is a great example of this! 🤣
But also this is why I struggle with following other super talented musicians, when I see they’re content I don’t get inspired tho I WISH I DID.
I feel a sick underlying sense that they have beat me in competition 🤮🤮🤮
Which is super dumbbb lol.
This card today helped me become more aware of this pattern in myself so that’s good lol when you become aware of something fully is when you can change it!!
👼🏼😇 8 OF RAPHAEL 😇👼🏼
SIR RAPHAEL IS HERE TO REMIND US THAT IF WE JUST KEEP LISTENING TO OUR HEARTS THEN THINGS WILL JUST GET BETTER AND BETTER AND BETTER!!
here is a prayer I found for healing, archangel Raphaels special powers! ☺️💚
Glorious Archangel St. Raphael,
great prince of the heavenly court,
you are illustrious for your gifts of wisdom and grace.
You are a guide of those who journey by land or sea or air, consoler of the afflicted, and refuge of sinners.
I beg you, assist me in all my needs and in all the sufferings of this life, as once you helped Tobias on his travels.
Because you are the “medicine of God” I humbly pray you to heal the many infirmities of my soul and the ills that afflict my body.
I especially ask of you the favor (here mention your special intention), and the great grace of purity to prepare me to be the temple of the Holy Spirit.
Amen.
