"Perseverance isn't the question. What you do next is."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
A young man on a craggy eminence brandishing a staff; six other staves are raised towards him from below. Wands represents passion and the seven card represents agency. Together this card represents holding your ground on the subjects you feel passionate about. It's a challenge to your goal and your battle to continue towards that goal.
You are being challenged from an unexpected foe-- perhaps your have realized your pay is not comparable to others in your role, or you need to give feedback to your partner about how they are treating you, or a close friend has told you something in confidence you are struggling to accept. You must face these challenges and handle them with dignity and grace.
You're feeling of indignation and defensiveness is getting the best of you, causing you to lash out and not take the feedback you need to hear. Perhaps someone is challenging something you are very insecure about. Take a step back when you feel anger guiding your words. Try to understand what is at the root of your pain and unpack that topic instead. If you want to maintain the relationship with the challenger, speak to them and figure out a solution.

Seven of Wands for Pisces in Love and Relationships
The Dreamer
Wands are the fire suit, so the Seven 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. Upright, the assessment is being made alone, which is where it is easiest to be wrong.
When reading about relationships through a Pisces lens, the Seven of Wands says that you feel like your partner is the mirror you check yourself against before you act, their needs are the weather system you orbit around, and love means becoming the version of you they seemed to want. This has either left you waking up one day unable to name a single preference that is actually yours, or to you exhausting yourself performing a self until the real one forgets how to speak. The thing you're not saying out loud is the thing that matters most. The Pisces blind spot in it is the moment they have to stop being useful and admit they're drowning.
In practice that can look like chemistry arriving fast. Whatever form it takes, it is being weighed alone, where it is easiest to lie to yourself.
