MINOR ARCANA

Page of Wands Tarot Meanings

The Page of Wands is the moment we realise the power we hold within ourselves, how we can create our own reality, take actions to have real-life experiences, and ultimately be in control of how our days and lives turn out. There is an openness, just like we find in the other Page cards, that means we welcome experimentation, stepping out of our comfort zones, and discovering more than we originally thought possible.

The Page of Wands is all about new adventures and approaching a new journey with an open mind and willing heart. You’re willing to do what is needed in order to get started and keep moving forwards. Remember that the Page’s are the novices of the Tarot deck. They are still learning about their suit and how to use the energy they have been gifted. The Page of Wands is no different.

Page of Wands Upright Meanings

In the upright position, the Page of Wands holds a lot of creativity and potential. It’s a card that is open to trying new things and going with the flow. If things don’t work out, then the Page of Wands sees it as a valuable lesson and keeps pushing forward regardless. Some of the key meanings of the Page of Wands are:

  • Creative discovery

  • New adventures

  • Identifying boundaries

  • Experimentation

With the court cards, it can help to think about them as people, with the pages being the children of the court card family. With that image in mind, the Page of Wands is the period of childhood where we start to look for our own independence, trying to form our own unique identity and take control of our own lives. We create boundaries, we express our creativity, we try new things to see what we like and what we don’t like. We take action to mould ourselves as human beings.

Page of Wands Reversed Meanings

In the reversed position, the Page of Wands takes that childish energy we talked about above and adds in all the worries and fears we usually have at a young age when trying to form our identity. Some of the main reversed meanings of the Page of Wands are:

  • Limited creativity

  • Comfort zone

  • Playing it safe

  • Fear of failure

With the upright Page of Wands, we talked about the idea of being a child and running around trying new things and having new experiences, in the reversed position, the opposite is true. This time, that wild child turns into one that craves safety in all areas, from emotional to physical. They block their own instincts in order to avoid change or growth.

Reading Page of Wands in a Tarot Spread

The Page of Wands, like the other court cards, is best read as an approach or mindset towards the other cards in the spread. For example, if we had both the Page of Wands and The Tower, it may be that we need to keep ourselves open to big structural changes and be able to accept new experiences and ideas that may come up because of this.

All the pages in the Tarot are foundational energy, they have a freshness and youth to them that the other court cards have. Like we touched on above, the pages are the children of the court cards, so channel that inner child whenever they come up in a spread, especially with the Page of Wands.

Page of Wands as An Invitation

When the Page of Wands shows up as an invitation, it usually asks us to try something new and be flexible to sudden changes that may occur.

For Page of Wands, this invitation could be the following:

  • An invitation to put yourself in a position to try something new

  • An invitation to question the actions we’ve taken previously and what we could do differently this time around

  • An invitation to review your boundaries and make changes where needed

  • An invitation to step out of your comfort zone

Page of Wands as Sage Advice

The Page of Wands reminds us what it’s like to be a carefree youth, to not worry about what others think and just do whatever we feel like doing at that moment.

Some advice Page of Wands may offer is:

  • Stop worrying what others will think and follow your gut

  • Not doing something because you are afraid to fail is already a failure

  • Always make time for some creative freedom, allow your imagination to run wild

  • Set your own boundaries and don’t let others dictate how you spend your time and energy

Page of Wands as a Lesson

With the Page of Wands being novice energy, there are a lot of lessons we can learn from this card, however, because it’s also a Page card, there may also be lessons we need to re-learn.

Some lessons that Page of Wands may offer you are:

  • A lesson in allowing yourself complete creative freedom

  • A lesson in knowing where your boundaries are and not being afraid to set new ones where necessary

  • A lesson in knowing how to break out of your comfort zone in a compassionate way

  • A lesson in when to play it safe and when to take risks

Page of Wands as a Redirection

If the Page of Wands pops up to redirect you, it may be that you need to get back to basics within the realm of personal power, action and instinct.

As a redirection, Page of Wands could symbolise a need to:

  • Focus on pushing your own boundaries and opening yourself up to new experiences more

  • Tread carefully, especially if you’ve been powering through without giving yourself much time to absorb what’s going on

  • A need to let go of control a little more and follow your instincts rather than your mind

Wands Tarot Meanings Wands

Wands

The wands are the rulers of our passions, power, action and creativity. They are the unseen force that pushes us to take action, to act impulsively or take a risk. 

The wands are a tool, which means they are a very active energy, opposed to the more passive energies of the cups and the swords. How we use this tool is down to us. In terms of the Page of Wands, we are gifted this tool with little knowledge of what to do with it. In many Tarot decks, the Page is seen holding a staff rather than a wand. This staff will slowly be whittled down into a wand the more the Page learns to use it.  

 

Page of Wands Tarot Meanings - Elemental

Fire + Earth

All the Tarot suits correspond to an element, the wands are the element of fire. However, when we get to the Court Cards, we also have elements that are assigned to the status of the card. For pages, we have the element of earth. 

The suits element is always the most prominent, with the pages, knights, queens and kings having their own secondary energies. This means that the Page of Wands is often known as the earth of fire. It is a card that offers some grounding to the fiery energy of the wands. It’s about starting from the ground up in the realm of wands. 

 

Pages Tarot Meanings

Pages

The Pages in Tarot are seen as the novice energy. They are young, have little knowledge or understanding, but are ready and willing to get stuck in and learn as much as they can. 

With the Page of Wands, it is a card about learning to wield power, learning to manifest and also analysing actions and impulses. A good way to think of the Page of Wands is to think about how it feels to have a go at something new. Maybe learning to paint for the first time, or going rock climbing for the first time. You give it a go but accept that you will make a wrong step from time to time due to your novice status.
