Six of Batons

Venus smiles on you from the heavens, the watery light of love, peace and beauty. But even the most favourable signs may conceal trouble. Do not be blinded to her caprices, for Venus’s gifts may not be all they seem.

Contentment is a still pond that hides effort, tension and sacrifice beneath its mirror surface. When disturbed, its reflection may reveal unwelcome facets.

Upright

• Success
• Creativity
• Intuition

The Universe prepares to reward your resilience and intuition; through your efforts, victory is secured. Legal or professional triumph may be within reach.

You or a fellow traveller may be engaged in creative work; Aphrodite smiles on the fruits of this labour, illuminating its strengths.

Inverted

• Opposition
• Struggle
• Stolen effort

The hallways through which you walk are crowded with others who move against you. You may find yourself forced to compensate for their efforts.

Depending on the cards surrounding, you may find only struggle in your professional life. Others may reap the fruits of vines you have nurtured; there is little you can do to prevent this. Wait. Make wine when circumstances are more favourable.
