Reversed Two of Wands Card Meanings For Relationships
[amazon box=”B07YG7RBM9″ template=”horizontal”]
If you are in a committed relationship and the Two of Wands shows in a reversed position, it represents the energy of “playing it safe.”
The Two of Wands reversed shows up when two people have outgrown the relationship but they want to stay together “for the kids”, or keep up appearances for the public.
But, the love and passion, and genuine desire to continue the relationship are gone.
This card can also represent travel plans being delayed, or the case that one of you wants to travel or even move far away but the other does not.
You are not in the same place with your desires and plans and this will cause tension in your relationship.
Reversed Two of Wands Card Meanings For Singles
If you’re single and the Two of Wands shows reversed, the meaning is similar to the upright Two of Wands.
You will have the choice between multiple partners, but one of them is likely to be your ex.
If you choose them, it will feel like a step back and you won’t be satisfied with the relationship.
You’ve been meant to move on from this person for months or even years!
If your ex is already in a new relationship, choosing them again may get in the way of that new romance.
This may seem like a good idea at first, but this relationship would not last long and you would quickly remember why you broke up in the first place.
The Two of Wands reversed means you still have free will, of course, but if you have to choose between two potential partners, you’ll have the best outcome if you choose the safest option.
Reversed Two of Wands Meaning For Money & Career
The Two of Wands reversed in a career reading means that you are bored with the same old routine.
You want something exciting, but you are afraid to change your job for fear of unemployment.
But, if you don’t make a move, you will stay stuck where you are and things will never improve!
This can also be a sign that your job is in jeopardy or that layoffs are possible.
In a money reading, the Two of Wands reversed means that you are feeling uncertain about your financial future.
You may have had some recent setbacks and are now feeling scared and unsure about what to do next.
This is not a time to panic, but rather to carefully plan your next move.
