The "Sixes" in the Tarot Deck reflect the fact that six is located at the centre of the Kabbalist Tree of Life - which implies harmony and communication.

In the case of the Six of Wands the harmony and communication of the Sixes takes the form of triumph and celebration of overcoming personal challenges. This is colourfully depicted in the popular Rider-Waite and Robin Wood Decks, both of which show a figure parading mounted on a white horse in front of a crowd.

This card may imply success in resolving issues, but also a warning not to succeed at the expense of others - or with any cause for dishonour.

Keywords summarising the possible meanings of this card include:

• Achievement
• Public Acclamation and Recognition
  (As in the celebratory home-comings of successful sports teams.)
• Reward for considerable success against difficult challenges.
• Triumph
• Victory.

Remember that all of the Wands cards in the Tarot Deck have some energies in common. These include, for example, the overall association of the suit of Wands with personal growth and the expression of personal spirit through our work, intellect, or creativity. For further information, also read about the Suit of Wands in general.

Some texts include meanings for "reversed cards", which apply when the cards are shuffled in both order and orientation. This doubles the number of possible "cards" in the deck from 78 to 156. (In terms of the probabilities of obtaining results by chance alone, it is not a simple doubling as once a card has been drawn it cannot be selected again in the opposite orientation in the same reading.)
