The Gun card has a variety of meanings, and some meanings are difficult to reconcile. To start with the literal and obvious, Gun can speak to violence, fear, intensity, shock, scandal, force, and malicious intent. It is a small tool that has massive ramifications, and because of this, it must be treated with care and caution. When the Gun card is pulled, first observe your or someone you know’s intentions. Are they pure of heart?

The Gun card has more metaphorical meanings too, which can also be successful ways to read the card. For one, the Gun card often speaks to deliberation. You have to deliberately aim and shoot. The Gun card might be here to say that extreme precision and attention to detail must be practiced at this time.

The tool can also speak simply to speed. It is like a canon, hurtling you or someone you know into the next life situation. The Gun card might also be suggesting circumstances could be explosive at this time.

It could also speak to being triggered. If you find yourself in a triggering situation, take extremely good care of yourself and go slow. Again, proceed with care and caution.

And lastly, the Gun card sometimes stands for completion. It is an object of (sometimes grave or sometimes for sheer practicality, survival and necessity) finality. On another note, it could be implying that it is simply time to finish something. And in some cases, it can be an ending to a chapter made deliberately by you.
