The first suit is Wands. Sometimes they’re called Rods. Wands are all about energy, creativity, and new beginnings. (short pause) Let’s break down what each card in the suit means, starting with the Ace.
The Ace of Wands stands for creative power and fresh starts. If it’s reversed, it can mean things feel stuck or there’s a decline in energy.
The King of Wands is about being responsible and making plans that can really work. If you see it reversed, it might mean someone is being too critical or not taking action.
The Queen of Wands shows someone who’s practical and sincere, with a clear idea in mind. But reversed, it can mean poor planning or even jealousy.
The Knight, or Prince, of Wands is all about movement and going on a journey. If it’s reversed, plans might change or there could be some discord.
The Page, or Princess, of Wands means something is coming to completion, or you might get an important message. Reversed, it can bring uncertainty.
The Ten of Wands is about determination and seeing your plans come together. But if it’s reversed, you might run into difficulties or things could come to a halt.
The Nine of Wands means it’s time to pause and get ready for what’s next. Reversed, it can mean obstacles or delays.
The Eight of Wands is about quick action, travel, or learning something new. If it’s reversed, there could be deception or canceled plans.
The Seven of Wands shows overcoming obstacles and finding success. But reversed, it might mean your energy is scattered or you have doubts.
The Six of Wands is about winning after a tough time and really understanding things. Reversed, it can mean vanity or someone being disloyal.
The Five of Wands is about conflict that leads to change and renewal. If it’s reversed, things might get complicated and you’ll need to be careful.
The Four of Wands stands for peace, romance, and stability. But reversed, it can mean dissatisfaction or things feeling a bit disorganized.
The Three of Wands is about business success and making deals. If it’s reversed, it could mean the end of trouble or a time to gather facts.
And finally, the Two of Wands is about feeling fulfilled and having a strong personality. But reversed, it might mean hollow victories or no real growth.
(short pause) That’s a quick look at the Wands in the Minor Arcana. Each suit has its own story, and we’ll explore the others soon.
