This week instead of just using the Tarot to see what is coming up or what we should be aware of, my question was “What do we need to have fun with this week?”. I drew the Five of Wands, which is often seen as a challenging tarot card, as it represents conflict, competition, and struggle. However, this card also offers opportunities for growth and playful exploration. Let’s explore how to have fun with the Five of Wands, and discover the insights and lessons it can offer.
Games and Activities
Engage with the Five of Wands by creating games and activities that embrace competition and conflict. Organize a friendly sports competition or board game night, where participants are encouraged to be playful and competitive. Alternatively, you could engage in a friendly debate or discussion with friends, exploring different perspectives and viewpoints.
Self-Reflection and Growth

The Five of Wands also offers insights into our own patterns of conflict and competition. Through self-reflection and introspection, explore your relationship with conflict and competition, and discover ways to grow and transform. Journaling prompts, such as “When do I feel most competitive? How does this impact my relationships?” can be a helpful tool for this process.
Creativity and Expression
Another way to have fun with the Five of Wands is to explore its creative potential. Use this card to inspire you to express yourself through art, writing, or music, using conflict and competition as a theme or metaphor. Through creative exploration, discover new insights and perspectives with this challenging card.
Conclusion
The Five of Wands may be a challenging tarot card, but it also offers opportunities for growth, exploration, and fun. By engaging with conflict and competition in playful and creative ways, we discover new insights and perspectives and transform our relationship with these themes.
What Clients are Saying about Sophrosyne Tarot
I was advised to ask open-ended questions instead of predictive questions which I thought was helpful because I never would have known if it weren’t for the reader. The reader provided the reading along with some advice too so the entire reading was very thorough and explained in an understandable manner.
Everything said was accurate and helpful for me to identify my flaws in order to grow as a person. I have learned a lot about tarot and what it does to help me.
I appreciate you sharing this blog post, though I’m not into tarot cards/readings.
Love it! I’m not the most competitive person, but I do love a good board game. And I love the question you put out into the world. We could all use to have a little more fun in our lives.
I have learned a lot about Tarot during this month!
Congratulations on completing the challenge!
