Upright, the energy is available to you. It does not mean the situation is easy; it means the quality the card names is accessible.
Reversed, the Seven of Wands indicates feeling overwhelmed by opposition, surrendering your principles, or lacking the energy to continue defending your stance. The pressure may become too much, or you may realize your position was never as secure as you believed. Know when to fight and when to strategically retreat.
