The theme for today focuses on taking a closer look at our living situation. With regards to our domestic life, are there parts of the house that needs fixing? Regarding family dynamics, what are the measures in settling the differences and preserving the harmony within the household? Are there areas in our family, friendships, or career wherein we need to be defensive? Do you think it is justified for you to feel that way?
For today, the Seven of Wands brings us a forecast about the possibility of taking a defensive stance. Part of man’s primitive nature of survival lies in adapting to circumstances beyond his control. Being an inherently territorial being, man will do anything to safeguard, improve, and extend his existence as long as it is within the scope of human intervention. Anything that poses a threat to our peaceful living is an urgent concern requiring effective and long-term countermeasures. Varying dangers may be lurking right under your noses—within the confines of your home, workplace, or even in academic institutions. Even the seemingly minor pests need to be dealt with at their root via pest control. Whether these nuisances are literal or figurative, there is a need to quickly formulate a pest control plan to prevent the situation from getting out of hand.
The subject of the Seven of Wands is a young man standing on an elevated ground. He is holding a long wooden stick, using it both as a weapon and a shield against the six other wands that emerge from underneath. Judging from his facial expression and body language, he assumes a defensive position against the unseen intruders. Nobody knows for sure what he is protecting—it could be his territory, family, belongings, or principles. In addition, the man has put on mismatched shoes. It is a circumstance that has left him unprepared. And so, in his haste, he had lost awareness of his physical appearance.
Crisis events almost always happen instantaneously, leaving those affected no time to formulate a coherent plan. Life and death situations unlock the primitive instincts of man, which are rooted in survival. Even issues that seem trivial should not be underestimated. For example, the adverse effects that different pests bring can range from minor to severe. Whether these are insects that damage crops, infrastructures, or livestock, there are preliminary pest control methods that you can do yourself. Some people may prefer to turn to an agency specializing in pest control services immediately. Most of these unwanted creatures may not be life-threatening, but they cause enough damage to wooden properties and plants. No matter which approach you choose, what’s important is you are taking the necessary steps in protecting your assets.
We may have already faced problems related to pests in the past, but we do not build resistance from it. Like how we typically treat illnesses and diseases, applying pest control is much more manageable the earlier you take action. Suppose you do not have prior knowledge regarding eliminating pests. In that case, you may find yourself taking the long route via trial and error since there are multiple pest control methods. Will you opt for the use of chemicals, or do you prefer the natural way? Referring back to the card, the man may have wielded a stick as a weapon because it is relatively easy to manipulate. It is also possible that the man has other weapons at his disposal but chose this one instead because it is the most readily available.
The pests that we are protecting our home and plants from may not solely pertain to literal ones—rats, termites, grasshoppers, and locusts, to name a few. These parasitic organisms can be the very people with whom we see and interact daily. They may be opportunistic people, pouncing on every chance to take advantage of your money, status, or influence. Some have hidden motives—chameleons who act entirely different when facing you and when they are not. For instance, these are people who put on a show that they are happy about your accomplishments.
These are the individuals who may not be noticeable at first, but they will eventually reveal themselves in due time. Identifying them is a challenge—just like termites who reside within the wooden walls of a building. There is already a certain extent of damage once you finally spot either the pests or the toxic people in your life. Nevertheless, pest control helps prevent the problem from escalating further—before the pests overwhelm.
No sane person would want to be exposed to pests every single day of his life. Some of these pests attack the plants and crops in gardens and farms. If not promptly attended, those that live inside a larger animal are microscopic and kill farm animals and even humans. Swift and effective pest control would typically require a different approach for each type of pest. Intestinal parasites in both humans and animals would require medicines. On the other hand, dealing with agricultural problems can be resolved through pesticides.
As for toxic people, this could be a friend, coworker, or relative. If you are the type of person who wants to fix the situation, you may prefer talking with them first to resolve the problem and see how things would play out from there. For others who are non-confrontational, limiting contact and even avoiding these unpleasant people might be desirable for you. Depending on the situation, one method might be more feasible than the other. The importance of discernment now comes in. Even if you are accustomed to one type of approach, it is essential to try out the other as part of the trial and error process. Remember that thinking and making quick decisions is not the only weapon you can have as you try to defend yourself from external harm. Broadening your perspective will be immensely vital in your current struggle since this will serve as your shield. Both the weapon and shield provide a solution to the problem that saves you from the worst-case scenario.
