Nine of Wands

The Fool now journeys to meet with the Nine of Wands and finds a need for patience. He is worn out by a situation and is a bit battered and bruised by events. He needs to take some time out. He knows that he may have won the battle, but he is not through yet and needs to re-evaluate matters. He feels tired and needs to take care of his energy, as he cannot give in. The Fool takes a breather but stays focused as things can still go his way or be completed.
Here we need a pause in action, not because we feel a need for fun; far from it, we could be feeling very tense, but because we need to clear our minds, feel safe, and collect our thoughts as we are feeling defensive and worn out.
Now is a time to conserve energy, find a safe spot, and protect ourselves. An attack may be real, yet as we may not be thinking clearly, it could be a knee-jerk reaction to the stress we feel.
We have suffered, we have fought, and the war continues, and we are adamant that we will not make the same mistakes again. What can feel like the last of our inner strength and patience is drawn upon as we recharge and re-evaluate events.
We can feel mistrust, be stressed and anxious, and feel a deep need to be on guard, and now is a good time to think about resolving problems before any progress can be made and balancing that with avoiding those things that tire you out even more.
Stop. Take some time out. You’re tired and may not be seeing things straight. Avoid any issues that will drain your mind and body.

I find Pam to be a particularly powerful and very special reader. She frames her readings with where your energy sits at the present moment before going into the details given by the guides and cards in the context of your question. Then she spectacularly wraps this all into crystal clear guidance.
She has many more gifts than those noted in her biography, not least the gift of placing ‘the whole of you’ front and centre of the reading with such loving kindness and compassion.
This is the second time in a year I’ve been to Pam. She was right the first time. She’ll be right this time. And, as before, I’ve come away feeling so much lighter somehow. Thank you, Pam, you are extraordinary. And you are a delight to deal with.

I am totally blown away by how great this book is! Before you even get into the content you will notice it's sheer size. This book is HUGE. The book is filled with beautiful coloured reproductions of each card with a comprehensive breakdown of each cards imagery and numerical associations. Then you have the in a nutshell portion if you want the quick fix.
Upright and reversed meanings of each card are also included. There are chapters on spreads, belief systems, psychic abilities, working with difficult or negative cards. Pam has shared her knowledge and love of tarot in a beautifully accessible
guide that is thorough and easy to understand without feeling like too much hard work.
It's an utter joy to have this book in my collection and is fast becoming my go to treasure.
As an addition while waiting for my print copy I was able to buy the eBook version.
Yes, I have 2! It's THAT good.
