What does the card number seven mean in Tarot?

Life never stops. Even with the balance returned by the sixes, which was pleasing after the chaos of the fives, people rarely linger in one place. Having achieved some success, it is only natural to assess the achievements in order to determine the next steps. Sevens bring the energy of evaluation.

The presence of sevens in the Tarot spread speaks of an original analytical approach to the study of various issues. Any trip now will be auspicious and enjoyable. Success is guaranteed by work in the field of science, technology or computer technology. You may have the opportunity to write something, do research, or study occult sciences. Now the main focus should be on independent self-knowledge and inner spiritual growth. Relationships with others and affairs at work recede into the background, in the first place is self-knowledge.

Seven of Wands is about taking a position. A person’s position is a volitional effort or forceful action that changes the flow of energy in the world for the better or for the worse. Most of the time we go with the flow, like a river. Events and feelings carry us forward effortlessly. Sometimes, however, we are not content with that drift. We want to resist the flow or completely change its course!

The figure on the Seven of Wands appears to be fighting. He is either attacking or under attack, or maybe both. When we decide to take a position, we set in motion the energy of resistance. When we take a firm stand, others do the same. The Seven of Wands means aggression and defiance, because they are two sides of the same coin. You attack, your opponent defends. He counterattacks, you defend.

Some battles are worth fighting, others are just trouble. If you are involved in a conflict, ask yourself if it is worth fighting. Is it really that important? Does it have value? Will the result serve you or others? If so, be bold and aggressive. Defend your position. Do not give up! If not, then consider letting go of this conflict. Be honest with yourself about this. You will be tempted to hold onto your position, especially if you have put a lot of time and energy into it. But don’t let your attack be based on illusions, sometimes the game is not worth the trouble.

Seven of Cups is a card of new opportunities, choices, and sometimes illusions. When this card appears in a Tarot reading, you have many options and possibilities to choose from. But be careful! You are now prone to illusions and unrealistic ideals.

Oftentimes, the Seven of Cups can be a sign of wishful thinking and projecting into the future what you would like to create instead of actually acting in the present to make it happen. For example, you may want a stronger, healthier body until it’s time to get out and exercise. Or you may wish for a successful business fueled by passive income, but you are not ready or willing to work hard right now to enjoy the fruits of your labor. If you spend most of your time just wanting but not getting the job done, then it’s time to make a choice and start making your desire a reality.

The Seven of Swords is somewhat similar to the Five of Swords, because both cards are associated with separation from others.

This card sometimes represents the lone wolf style: the desire to live alone and free. In films, the lone hero always acts completely on his own.

He discovers, investigates and solves every problem using only his own mind and resources. He believes he is successful because he ignores the clumsy efforts of ordinary people. You feel that you will be more efficient and comfortable on your own. This approach can really be useful when you are annoyed by the low efficiency of the people with whom you are forced to cooperate, or when you need to assert your independence. But we cannot be happy and productive for long without some kind of community with others. If you feel inclined to go it alone, make sure that this isolation is really what you need right now.

Sometimes the Seven of Swords means you are running from something: devotion, responsibility, hard work, love. You can hesitate in making any important decision, in the hope that the problems will go away by themselves. The Seven of Swords invites you not to run away from problems, but to solve them, otherwise it will only get worse.

Well, the most obvious meaning of the Seven of Swords can also indicate hidden dishonor or deception both in relation to you and from you. This could literally mean theft. Deception or secret intrigue. Be careful.

The Seven of Pentacles is a time out. It represents those moments after a burst of activity when we pause to catch our breath and look around. The man in the painting paused to consider the fruits of his labors. In the Tarot spread, the Seven of Pentacles may indicate a reward that will come to you after such a long effort. Take it and enjoy it.

This card is also a call for evaluation. When we’re busy, we don’t always have time to think about what we are doing and why. Are we off course, by any chance? Are we getting the expected results? Serious problems can arise if you don’t summarize at the right moments.

The Seven of Pentacles can also indicate a “crossroads” in your life. We are used to walking on the knurled one. Moving in a new direction is not easy. The Seven of Pentacles can indicate to you that a course correction or even a complete change of course is possible.

The Seven of Pentacles is not a card of endings or final decisions. The game is not over, but only momentarily suspended. Once you catch your breath and check your strategy, be ready to go back and work even harder than before.

Conclusion

The number “seven” represents Yang energy. On the seventh day, the Lord rested, and the sevens in the Tarot spread often indicate the need for rest, solitude, detachment, meditation and reflection. Otherwise, you can expect overwork, anxiety, a feeling of limitedness, physical and nervous tension. Now all attention should be paid to spiritual growth, not material desires. This is a period suitable for analysis, reflection and meditation rather than direct action.
