You can also go by astrological timing, which would be April 10-20 for the 4 of Wands.[FONT="][/FONT]
Thank you. Yes, I've seen that representation but any experience to validate it?

Yes, IVe had 5 of wands come as 5 days but then cups sometimes become days. Thanks though. I'm wondering when you got this card, what was the topic of your question?

I've just started out with it, because, for me it doesn't work to go by days, weeks, months and years. In the beginning of this year I asked a timing question and I got the 4 of Wands. So, I figured, in 4 days or in April. It didn't happen in 4 days, which it rarely does for me, so maybe April. But that's just for me, I know that the "typical", "standard" (?) timing works for some, but it just doesn't work for me at all. However, I've started to believe that my deck speaks to me through its images more than anything else. The images seem to give me a better clue about when something may happen.
I should have clarified that my method applies mainly to the minor cards, Ace through 10; I use an approach like the above for trump catds. I don't really have a rule of thumb for them, other than the inherent nature of the card and its astrological and elemental correspondences. The Tower is associated with fiery Mars and implies a swift upset, the Hermit is represented by a methodical Earth sign (Virgo), but is still Mercurial so there would be a bit more promptness to its action than the World, which is related to ponderous Saturn. By that logic, the Fool (as zero) could mean either "today" or Weeks according to its Air attribution. I know some people see the Trumps as generally "slow-acting," but I treat it more as a situational "cut-to-fit" depending on context. Actually, common sense regarding the nature of the question should always be the first consideration.
The fact that court cards may signify interaction with other people, who usually have their own agenda and tiimetable, would seem to make them tricky for timing purposes. Their elemental nature, inherent posture (standing, seated, mounted) and orientation/direction related to the rest of the spread might suggest whether someone will be coming into or going out of the matter, and how soon.
Yes, actually. I no longer view Wands as weeks. I've come a longer way with timing since 2009. 4 of Wands = 4 Days to me, or otherwise comes up to suggest the timing is around a traditional celebration (birthday, anniversary, etc.).
Pulled 4 of Wands alone as a timing indications as well. And in relation to the question, 4 of Wands as 4 days is far too soon.
So would Thanksgiving be a good time?
