# Seven of Wands

**Suit**: Wands | **Rank**: 7

## Upright
Defiance, standing your ground, perseverance. Challenges come from all sides
but your position is strong. Hold firm against opposition.

## Reversed
Exhaustion, giving up, overwhelmed. The constant defense is wearing you down.
Know when persistence becomes stubbornness.

## In Technical Context
Pressure-test the technical decision instead of folding at the first pushback.
Hold your ground when the evidence supports it, but distinguish real critique
from noise.
