Nine of Wands is a blocking card indicating that the time for action has passed, and now the querent is dealing with difficulties that arose due to inaction. This card is akin to a cake that was left in the oven too long.

The Meaning of The Card

Nine of Wands represents the final challenge before completing a journey. After many obstacles, one last challenge remains before the individual’s desires will align. The suit of Wands is a series of beginnings, and the conclusion of this series, where the fulfillment of desire is manifested in other suits such as Earth, Water, or Air, is reached here. In the Eight of Wands, the series is completed, and afterward, the fire consumes rather than warms.
