Artist Interpretation

“The Seven of Wands! The vastness of the sky is measured by its height, and the depth of an ocean lies within its depth, a dark abyss. Seven of Wands usually shows a man standing above the world, he is at the top, above all, he stands and holds his position, and he protects his horizon with the wands. He has reached the sky, crossed every hurdle and achieved everything. Same way ‘the man’ has reached the depth of the ocean; his quest is downward into the light-consuming sea depths, where he stands his ground with seven harpoons!”

Card Meaning

In the darkest part of the ocean, a deep-sea diver stands, lamp in hand. He has made great progress so far on his journey, but now faces a hard challenge that will test his courage and strength. The monsters of the deep approach him, massive leviathans with hooked tentacles and multitiudes of stingers, ready to drag him to his destruction. The high ground may not help him as it would on land, so he must use other tools in his arsenal – a monstrous lantern to dazzle them and seven harpoons.

After the public recognition of your deeds comes a tough challenge, as others try to tear you down. Now is the time to shine, to draw upon the tenacity and confidence within you, to hold your ground and defend your rightful place at the top.
