This is where the final edits on your work can go. The 9 of Wands wants to reflect on how everything has gone so far, to smile at the tribulations you have faced, and enjoy the feeling of having gotten away with something… or at least, accomplished something. A brat sees this card when they successfully poke the bear, get what they want, and survive the experience. A writer might experience this card as the last pass before the publisher runs with the manuscript.
