Friction that sharpens rather than wounds.
Five of Wands upright
- Calmly expressing a dissenting opinion
- Allowing someone to use his or her own methods to get a job done
- Opening the floor for discussion or debate
- Comparing progress made so far to standards set earlier
Five of Wands reversed
- Berating others for their ridiculous opinions
- Picking fights
- Offering destructive criticism
- Baiting people with barbed remarks
- Disrupting progress with an endless stream of pointless objections
Five of Wands as a prediction
- Prepare for a fight with your best friend
- Remember: once you let words loose, you can't take them back
