The Nine of Wands generally suggests staying alert and defending what is important. But sometimes it may be just about us; we are simply trying to keep at it in order to reach a goal so that we don't let exhaustion or other distractions deter our effort. It could be that we're trying to finish a project before a deadline, get through the last course of treatment for an illness, or complete a course that adds to our skills and knowledge. It may seem easier to say 'the hell with it' than hang in there. Yet a bird offers us an effective outlet. Fantails, when perched, often continue to rock back and forth, spin 180° on the spot, wag their tail from side to side or fan it. This bird is a source of joy and laughter, reminding us that humor can help restore our sanity and determination. As Mark Twain said, "The human race has one really effective weapon, and that is laughter."
