Nine of Wands




     The Nine of Wands is one of the cards of the Minor Arcana. Depicted on this card is a man with a bandaged head leaning on a wand as if awaiting an enemy. Behind him stand 8 wands in an orderly procession like a pallisade. This is a card of boundaries. When this card comes into your spread it's their to indicate that you need to set healthy boundaries and to make sure that you defend them dilligently. This includes setting personal boundaries for yourself if you find yourself to be overindulgeant in things that may be harmful.
