Nine of Wandsfor Pisces
"Tired is not the same as done."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
The figure leans upon his staff and has an expectant look, as if awaiting an enemy. Behind are eight other wands stood up in order. Wands represents passion and nine represents the final stretch. Together this card represents coming near to the end of a long and tough journey, alone and bandaged. The final stretch before finishing-- you have just a single wand to carry you through.
You are being tested, it seems like all your hopes have been dashed-- but you still have the one idea you started with; the core passion to carry you through. Perhaps you were cancelled on for a date you were excited about, or your partner is absent. You're end goal is still in sight. You feel alone now, but you have the ability to get through this and work towards what you want. Keep taking small steps toward your goal (be it a healthy relationship, a marriage, a new job, business success etc).
You are feeling like you want to quit; it's hard to continue on and you are questioning if you can get the things you want. Do not lose hope-- all is not lost. You may feel like the task is impossible, but I believe in you. If someone else is blocking you, try to set boundaries and find ways to move towards your goal despite them.

Nine of Wands for Pisces
The Dreamer
Pisces is a Water mutable sign ruled by Jupiter, whose natural subject is the unconscious, dissolution, retreat, what is hidden from the self. Wands are the fire suit, so the Nine of Wands sits in Aries. Aries sits directly beside Pisces, the one relationship a sign cannot see clearly because it is too close to get any distance on. What it asks for is this: spend the energy on one thing today. The difficulty is noticing it is being asked at all. Pisces is mutable: it adapts, and this card is about completion, which asks the one thing mutable signs resist, which is settling on a final form. The card wants action where the sign is built to feel it through first. One of those has to go second. Upright, it is nearly finished, and the last stretch of it is mostly solitary.
