What is the meaning of symbols in Four of Wands Tarot Card?

The Four of Wands corresponds to a period of peace and quiet, during which we open ourselves towards life and its joys. We are confident in our own safety, and therefore are ready to leave the “fortress walls” and go out into the outside world. This means communication, entertainment, pleasure and joy of life, as well as the opening of our “I” to meet the world, a feeling of deep connection with other people.
The card invites us to joy and fun, as it were. Life is beautiful, a holiday awaits us! Friendship, love, good human relations dawn on our path. Friends and close people are waiting for us – let’s go to them, they need us.
