The Six of Wands may herald the arrival of good news; it may also mark a moment of personal glory. One of the most gratifying cards in the deck, it shows the high point of a creative journey. Self-confidence forged the path to this victory, for, as Rachel Pollack says, "Optimism produces the very success it desires and expects."

Having manifested your goals, your achievements are now honored by others. A promotion or other reward may even be granted to you. You deserve this acknowledgement, for your sucess benefits the whole community. Inspiring others with your triumph, people may begin to look to you for leadership. However, be wary of the human desire for heroes; don't use your position to gain unfair advantage over others. Enjoy your time in the limelight for what it's worth, knowing that fame may fade but your accomplishments will endure.
