9 of Wands
I participate in a few daily draw threads and the 9 of wands has come up in several of them. I've been getting several nines lately, three in one week, and the 9 of Wands in the Enchanted Deck is an interesting image. All wands have the fiery orange tint to the cards. The woman in the image has taken 7 wands and planted them in the earth at the mouth of a cave, like a protection against intruders. She holds two more large wands, ready to go into the earth as well, completing the protective barrier, which is also, at the same time, a cage. The keyword for the card is discipline, and the book itself says that discipline can become a cage. While the focused activity that the card indicates is essential, we need to be careful that all that focused energy and deft handling of the Wands do not cage us in, and trap us. Discpline and freedom need to dance together. BB, Michael
