When the Queen of Wands shows up as an invitation, we are encouraged to nurture that fiery energy inside of us. To embrace bursts of creativity, to find comfort in authority and power.

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

• An invitation to see your ambition as an asset and nurture it so it can grow

• An invitation to check on your emotional habits and make sure they are in your best interest

• An invitation to embrace sexuality

• An invitation to review insecurities and start to work through them

The advice given by the Queen of Wands often revolves around knowing and understanding your fire energy. It helps us figure out when to relax and let go and when to check-in and assess negative behaviours.

Some advice Queen of Wands may offer is:

• Giving life to a creative idea is a messy process, but don’t let that deter you from getting stuck in and allowing a bit of chaos to rule for a short time

• There’s a difference between being bossy and being a boss. Don’t allow yourself to tip too far into self-importance when taking the lead

• Taking care of our emotional health is just as much a practical task as it is a mental on

The Queen of Wands is the mother figure of the wands, so she can teach us a lot about compassion and intuition when it comes to our own power and creativity.

Some lessons that Queen of Wands may offer you are:

• A lesson in creating habits that take care of your wellbeing while also allowing you room to play and channel your passions in a healthy way

• A lesson in dominance and what dominance looks like in your own actions

• A lesson in ambition and how to feed it enough to grow, but also keep it grounded

• A lesson in dealing with insecurities and how to work through them

If the Queen of Wands comes to redirect you, it often means that you are allowing that fire energy to take too much of a lead in the situation. There is a need for a more emotionally connected approach or a need for more creative freedom.

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

• Check your current habits and behaviours and make necessary changes to ensure you are looking after your emotional world in equal measure

• Follow and listen to both your intuition and instinctual gut feelings

• Take a step back and apply a softer approach to your leadership role

• Notice your temper and take actions to control impulsive emotions in order to regain order

When the Knight of Wands shows up as an invitation, we’re asked to review our actions, to see whether they were justified or whether we need to be held accountable.

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

• An invitation to see how your actions have affected others, if at all

• An invitation to challenge the status quo

• An invitation to embrace the thing you feel most passionate about right now

• An invitation to see how far you can push set boundaries

The Knight of Wands has a similar message to that of the Page of Wands, only it has matured slightly. We are again asked to embrace this fiery energy, but we are now mature enough to understand how our actions have consequences and they aren’t always positive.

Some advice Knight of Wands may offer is:

• Don’t just take things as they are, challenge thoughts and opinions that seem outdated or unethical

• Hold yourself accountable instead of running from your mistakes

• Be mindful of how your actions could be seen as selfish or arrogant

A lot of the lessons we are offered with the Knight of Wands include a level of failure or teething problems. The knights are the ‘teen’ energy and we all know how awkward and embarrassing the teenage period of our lives can be. A lot of what we learn is through trial and error.

Some lessons that Knight of Wands may offer you are:

• A lesson in the difference between arrogance and confidence

• A lesson in knowing when something should be challenged and when something should be debated

• A lesson in accountability and holding yourself accountable for your own actions

• A lesson in knowing where your boundaries lie and when to push them a little further

When the Knight of Wands comes in as a redirection, it’ll be a fairly quick turnaround that might even leave you feeling a bit displaced. Often this card as a redirection comes in to encourage us to be more forceful or check our passions that are out of control.

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

• Stop allowing people to take advantage of you and stand up for your beliefs

• Take a less selfish approach to the situation

• Stop second-guessing yourself and throw yourself into the deep end

• Act impulsively / not act impulsively (depends on the context of the card)

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

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

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

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
