This is the card that represents that everything is quickly progressing and anything that was at a standstill will finally move along. This is the card of taking action, and it also can represent air travel. With air travel, it is possible to get to your far-away destination as quickly as you can. And you could not get to it quickly by car, and that would not be possible anyway if it is on a different continent.
The Seven of Wands represented the snag you had encountered that posed a threat to your accomplishments.
