Exhaustion, giving up, overwhelmed

The Seven of Wands reversed suggests feelings of being overwhelmed, succumbing to challenges, or a need to reassess one's current position. When it comes to financial planning for retirement, this card might be indicating that you're either overextending yourself or not standing your ground on your financial plans.

The card advises you to take a step back and look at the bigger picture. Are you putting away so much that it’s causing you stress or preventing you from meeting your current needs? Or conversely, are you not asserting yourself enough in your financial planning, perhaps not committing to a retirement plan as you should?

Finding a balance is key. It's important to save for retirement, but not to the point where it significantly diminishes your quality of life now. A sensible approach would be to evaluate your current financial situation, considering your income, essential expenses, and lifestyle, and then determine a realistic amount that you can save without feeling overwhelmed. It might also be wise to consult with a financial advisor to establish a plan that is ambitious yet sustainable, tailored to your long-term financial goals and current economic situation.
