The Seven of Wands means that we have been attacked, that competitors, envious people, or other opponents are against us. They are stronger than us or there are more of them. However, this card shows that we have a good chance of winning because we are in a better position. Therefore, it should be taken as a warning: be smart and vigilant so as not to lose your positional advantage. It goes without saying that a real, physical attack is rarely discussed here. Most often it is someone’s interference in our private or even personal affairs, an attempt to deprive us of something or prevent us from achieving something.
