Future Tarot Meanings: Six of Wands

The meaning of the Six of Wands Tarot card is that it symbolizes success. When you pull the Six of Wands, it predicts victories in all of your endeavors. The Six of Wands predicts recognition for hard work. The effort which you have put in will begin to pay off, and you can bask in this glory. The seeds you have sown previously will sprout for years to come. You can sit back, relax, and bask in your fame.

There is a possibility that you will be looked up to as an authority. As a result of your new-found notoriety, you could find yourself somewhat of a celebrity in your local area or subject of expertise. I would also expect to see the Six of Wands in someone with a largish or growing social media following.   

Many people can get recognition in their careers, but they are not rewarded financially; for you, this will not be the case. You can expect to have a financial increase along with a well deserved inflated ego.

There will be times when the Six of Wands appears in a spread as a negative or set back. If this is the case, then it means that you’re letting pride get in the way of your happiness. You cannot admit when you’re wrong and do not like the thought of others knowing more about a subject than you do. Your ego could eventually be your downfall.

There is also the possibility that your arrogance turns people off. You can come across as a showy know-it-all. Being this way is affecting your relationships, so be mindful to keep it in check if this is what the Six of Wands symbolizes for you.

Six of Wands Love Tarot Meaning

I am inclined to not read the Six of Wands well for most types of relationship questions. The card doesn’t mainly symbolize things related to love. If anything, the Six of Wands is an egotistical card that represents one person doing well for themselves. It is not a card of teamwork as a relationship should be, and, therefore, I do not view it positively, no matter what position it is in.

With the above being said, I would read the Six of Wands well in a love Tarot reading, if you are involved in a love affair. The Six of Wands predicts that, ultimately, you will be the person that your partner chooses to be with eventually.

If you are asking your Tarot cards what someone’s feelings as towards you and a Six of Wands comes up, this is not a good sign. It means that they are the type of person who views others as mere conquests, not long-term partners. There is also the possibility that this individual feels as though they can do better than you.

Six of Wands Future Tarot Meaning

When it appears in an outcome or future position, the Six of Wands promises that you will get what you deserve in the end. If you keep working hard and are persistent in what you’re pursuing, then your efforts will eventually pay off.

If you are involved in a relationship, the Six of Wands in a future or outcome position of a Tarot spread can mean that you will eventually become involved with a different partner who treats you as you feel you deserve to be treated. 

However, if you are not yet in a relationship with the person which you’re pursuing, the Six of Wands means that you will eventually be victorious in the capture of this person’s affections. In these cases, the Six of Wands is a very good omen (and double points if you are trying to attract someone who is already attached to another person!) 

Six of Wands Business & Career Tarot Meaning

The Six of Wands is a very positive card to receive for career, business matters, and even hobbies. It is pretty obvious that it is a card of recognition for your efforts.

The effort which you have put in will be seen by those around you. You will be regarded as an industry expert in your field. Your achievements will be congratulated publicly by people of importance. You may host an event. Or, you will win an award, receive a medal, or receive some other prize, which cements your reputation. 

As stated in the main write up of the Six of Wands, try not to let your increased influence go to your head. Make sure that people see you are a worthy leader who they can look up to instead of an overrated tyrant.

Six of Wands Yes or No Tarot Meaning

General - For most types of Tarot readings, the Six of Wands is a yes. However, in Tarot readings involving love, romance, and relationships, the Six of Wands is neutral.

Do they like me? - Yes, this person may like you, but it is possible that they are also attracted to someone else. 

Am I pregnant? - No, I do not interpret the Six of Wands as a typical pregnancy and conception card. However, if you have been trying to get pregnant without results, then I am inclined to think that a pregnancy will soon happen. Do not lose faith! 

Is this relationship going to last? - This relationship will last as long as you can stroke your lover’s ego! 

Does the future of this look promising? - Yes, the future of this matter appears to be in your favor. 

Am I going to reconcile with my ex? - Yes, you will reconcile with your ex in the future. The Six of Wands is especially positive if your ex-lover is currently involved with someone else. 

Six of Wands as a Negative, Weakness or Blockage

When the Six of Wands appears in a negative, weakness, or obstacle Tarot spread position, this means that that your success is going to go to your head. You come across as arrogant because you feel that you know better than everyone else. The Six of Wands is telling you to remember that you can always learn something from others. 

Finally, you can expect to see the Six of Wands as a blockage if your relationship, success, or friendships are just for show. There is no point in trying to maintain a facade if you are secretly unhappy.

Six of Wands as a Positive, Strength or Advantage

When the Six of Wands appears in a positive, strength, or advantage Tarot spread position, this means that you will accomplish your goal. You will eventually receive recognition for what you are trying to achieve. The Six of Wands will appear as positive when you are about to be rewarded emotionally or financially. 

In some cases, the Six of Wands can also appear as an advantage when you are favored over your competitors. The other individuals who are involved in this situation do not feel that you can do any wrong. You are the golden child! 

Finally, the Six of Wands will appear as a strength when you have what it takes to be victorious. If you have recently been beaten, do not worry. The other person may have won the battle, but you will win the war.
