Five of Wands
The Fool journeys now to the Five of Wands, where everything appears to be going wrong for him as he encounters other people's perspectives and disagreements. This brings frustration, as everyone wants their say, and setbacks are guaranteed, albeit temporary ones. Everything can be resolved; it is just a matter of talking with others and not ignoring what is on their minds. This is a time for patience, healthy debate, or brainstorming.
Frustration, frustration, and a bit more frustration thrown in for good measure.
We encounter issues that can seem bigger than they are; they make us see hurdles and issues, which create tension, and we just cannot seem to catch a break with this card. Wands are generous, and with a few people adding to the melting pot, or even more than one idea in your mind battling for supremacy, you can get stuck in a gridlock of ideas, views, and opinions.
Annoyance can be the result, and it can leave us exasperated with too many voices to be content with. Everybody wants to be right, and it can test patience.
Wires get crossed in communication, and we find that we face trivial disagreements and obstacles, which will not feel that small, yet thankfully, just watch and they will disappear quickly.
Expect to disagree with others and even yourself, and cooperation will be limited. Thrashing out our issues will not do any harm, even if feelings do get hurt.
Those are not mountains, they are molehills!

thanks Pam, liked the clarity of your guidance.

I recently requested a Reader's Choice reading from Pam. I felt it would give her more space to go where spirit moved her. I read it several times over the course of about a week and a half to digest its elements. The reading is so beyond accurate, it's amazing and demonstrates to me that Pam knows people and is in touch with universal energy and sprit.
To say that I highly recommend a reading with Pam is an understatement. And such a lovely, gentle, genuine person too.

Pam was lovely, responsive, insightful, and quick to respond. She had a very clear view, and her insights were very helpful for me to figure out some life issues. I felt much better about things after my reading. I would tap into her again, for sure!
