I. The Description of Five of Wands Deviant Moon Tarot
A battle has struck out in this Five of Wands Deviant Moon Tarot! People from different regions are attacking each other, leading to a battle with sticks to deal with the problem, instead of searching for peaceful means of negotiating to resolve conflicts.
The chaos in this card is really similar to Five of Wands Rider Waite Tarot, with the only difference is that RW’s crowd has 5 people while there are only 4 people. They have similar meanings in terms of competition, conflict, and ego-promotion. Surely, readers are looking for the 5th stick of this card. Or when we have not yet seen it standing alone on a high hill, looking “out of the world” and it is the only stick that brings life.

But conflict is also prone to violence and animosity very quickly.
In these cases, it is best to be like the stick standing out there, listening, observing, and exploring further to understand more deeply about the problem, to be more mature, and not just to always overate your ego and subjective opinion. Turn contradictions into an opportunity for your own learning and growth.
