A key aspect of reading your own tarot is interpreting cards. For a beginner interpreting a single card can be fine, as there are plenty of resources to help you out, however interpreting two or more can be very tricky.

However, if you have been practising single card readings for a while a 2 card spread will be a great introduction into reading multiple cards.

As you’ve found this page, you’re probably wondering how to interpret the The Magician card and 9 Of Wands card together in particular.

The The Magician card and 9 Of Wands have unique qualities and will interact with each other in different ways depending on what kind of reading you are doing.

What does The Magician and 9 Of Wands mean together?

The Magician tarot card and The 9 Of Wands tarot card together for me suggest that I need to focus my creative energy in order to turn my vision into reality. I also need to be persistent in maintaining my boundaries in order to keep my health and relationship on track.

The meaning of the cards will depend on what kind of reading you are doing and the question you asked the deck. This is a guide covering the general meanings of the cards and how they relate to each other.

Common 2-card spreads

Whilst it’s great to know who these two cards interact with each other, it’s important to note that the meaning will depend on the context of your spread

The most common 2 card spreads I recommend to newer readers are:

  • The 2 card cross (otherwise known as “The Fool’s Journey”)
  • The 2 card “Yes or No”

“The Fool’s Journey”

Setup: The two card cross is where you place two cards face up, one placed vertically and with one laying horizontally over

Interpretation: The 2 cards represent a “situation” and a “challenge”. The first card will describe the situation you are in with the second horizontal card being the “challenge” crossing you (literally crossing you in this case!)

Reading: Using the overviews in this guide is a great way to start. First, look at the meanings of the 2 cards, and see how they might relate either as your “situation” or “challenge”. Once you have that you can look at the general overview for how the two cards interact with each other.

The benefit of this spread is that it can give clarity when you’re feeling uncertain or anxious. Once you have clarity of thought, and a strong idea of what your challenge is you can find solutions to help your situation

The 2 card “Yes or No”

Setup: The 2 card “Yes or No” is where you place two cards face up side by side, whilst asking your deck a “yes or no” question.

Interpretation: Each card in a tarot deck has a “yes” or a “no” meaning. Look at the meanings of each card, and you will have your answer.

The benefit of this is you get a stronger yes or no compared to a single card draw. You may find you often get a mix of “yes or no”, and this is fine. It simply means there is doubt, or things are not yet clear.

Yes or No meaning

Things are a bit tricky for this combination, as The Magician and 9 Of Wands mean different things. The cards are unsure about your question, or the answer to the question has not yet been decided.

The “Yes” and “No” meanings can differ from reader to reader. The meanings here are based on what I believe are the generally accepted definitions.

What does The Magician mean?

Health: The Magician Tarot card means focused creativity and inspired action in health. This card suggests that you focus your creative energy on manifesting your health goals. You have the power to create health and wellbeing in your life, so use your imagination and visualize your perfect health. Taking inspired action towards your health goals will help you to achieve them. Trust your intuition and follow your heart to create the health and vitality that you desire.

Finances: The Magician Tarot card means focused creativity and inspired action in finances. This card suggests that you focus your creative energy on manifesting your financial goals.

Taking inspired action towards your financial goals will help you to achieve them. Trust your intuition and follow your heart to create the financial security and prosperity that you desire.

You have the power to create the relationship of your dreams, so use your imagination and visualize your perfect partner. Taking inspired action towards your relationship goals will help you to attract your ideal mate. Trust your intuition and follow your heart to create the love and companionship that you desire.

What does 9 Of Wands mean?

The 9 of Wands suggests that you need to maintain boundaries in your relationships and finances in order to stay healthy and balanced. This may require some persistence on your part, but it will be worth it in the long run. Setting limits with others will help you to feel more in control of your life and will prevent you from getting overwhelmed. It is also important to be realistic in your expectations of yourself and others. This is not a time to take risks or to put all your eggs in one basket. Play it safe and you will be rewarded.

In terms of health, the 9 of Wands suggests that you need to take care of yourself and not push yourself too hard. Balance is key, and you may need to cut back on your activities in order to maintain your energy levels. This is not a time to start a new diet or exercise regime, as you are likely to burn out quickly. Instead, focus on eating healthy foods and getting regular exercise. If you can stick to a routine, you will be more likely to see results.

When it comes to finances, the 9 of Wands suggests that you need to be mindful of your spending. This is not a time to take risks or make impulsive purchases. Instead, focus on saving your money and only spending on what you need. If you can stick to a budget, you will be in a much better position to weather any financial storms that come your way.

In terms of relationships, the 9 of Wands suggests that you need to be honest with yourself and others. This is not a time to start new relationships or to try to fix existing ones. If you are single, now is not the time to try to find a partner. Instead, focus on taking care of yourself and honing your own self-reliance. If you are in a relationship, be honest with your partner about what you need and be willing to compromise. This is a time to focus on your own needs and to nurture your own happiness.

Conclusion

Understanding how the meaning of a reading changes once you start involving more than one card can be tricky. This will come with time and practice, however I hope this guide on what your cards might be telling you when you draw The Magician and 9 Of Wands has helped you.
