Alright, so I got this tarot reading gig, and I wanted to get a grip on the “Five of Wands” card. You know, to see what’s up with that card in terms of personality. I mean, it’s supposed to be about conflict and stuff, but I wanted to dig deeper, see how it really plays out.
First off, I started shuffling my deck, just getting a feel for the cards, like I always do. Then, I pulled out the Five of Wands. This card’s got these five dudes seemingly arguing or competing, so I figured it’s gotta relate to some kind of struggle or disagreement in a person’s life, right?
So, I started to think about what this card might mean for someone’s personality. The Five of Wands, it’s all about conflict, both inside and out. Like, maybe this person’s always at odds with the people around them, or maybe they’re fighting some inner battles. It’s a stressful vibe, for sure. I even looked up some stuff online to get other people’s takes on it.

I read this one thing that said, “The Five of Wands as feelings reveals that your partner is not very open with you around your feelings and your actions.” That got me thinking, like, maybe a Five of Wands personality is someone who’s not really good at communicating, who bottles things up, leading to misunderstandings and conflicts. Another thing I came across was, “The Five of Wands symbolizes conflict and competition in love.” That makes sense, right? If you’re always competing, even in your relationships, it’s gonna cause some drama.
Then I thought, what if this card showed up in a reading about love? The Lovers is the card number 7, so is it related to the Five of Wands? I pulled the Lovers card from my deck. It’s all about deep connection, attraction, and unity. Seems pretty different from the Five of Wands, right? Maybe it means that to find that kind of connection, you gotta work through the conflicts first. Or maybe, a Five of Wands personality might struggle to find that unity because they’re always caught up in some kind of competition.
I spent a good chunk of time just pondering these ideas, flipping the cards over in my hands, trying to get a better sense of the Five of Wands vibe. It’s not just about being argumentative, I realized. It’s about struggle, about feeling like you’re always fighting for something, whether it’s with others or within yourself.
I decided to jot down some notes to keep it all straight in my head:
- Five of Wands = Conflict, internal and external
- Might mean someone’s not open about their feelings
- Could indicate a competitive nature, even in love
- Possibly a struggle to find unity and connection like The Lovers
After all that, I felt like I had a better handle on the Five of Wands personality. It’s not just about someone who likes to argue; it’s about someone who’s constantly dealing with conflict, maybe because of their own actions, maybe because of the situations they find themselves in. But the card also suggests the need to resolve these conflicts, to find a way to communicate better, and to maybe chill out on the competition sometimes.
