The "Fours" in the Tarot Deck are the cards
that begin to define situation and set relevant boundaries. These incorporate
order and structure (but not repression of expression or self-discovery).
In the case of the Four of Wands this represents accomplishment, satisfaction,
achievement, and replenishment of personal energies. It is a joyful
card that often includes images of fun, partying, and celebration.
Some popular decks depict a couple dancing - indicating possible "completion"
in the form of a rite of passage.
Some readers are prompted to interpret this card in terms of a Wedding
celebration, or similar for other traditions (e.g. Pagan a Handfasting).
This card may encourage the seeker to complete any relationship or
issue that he/she has left in limbo, and to enjoy the satisfaction
of his/her achievements.
