Page of Wands |
 In a scene similar to the former, a young man
stands in the act of proclamation. He is unknown but faithful, and his tidings are
strange. : Dark young man, faithful, a
lover, an envoy, a postman. Beside a man, he will bear favourable testimony concerning
him. A dangerous rival, if followed by the Page of Cups. Has the chief qualities of his
suit. He may signify family intelligence. Reversed: Anecdotes, announcements, evil
news. Also indecision and the instability which accompanies it. |
|
Knight of Wands |
 He is shewn as if upon a journey, armed with a
short wand, and although mailed is not on a warlike errand. He is passing mounds or
pyramids. The motion of the horse is a key to the character of its rider, and suggests the
precipitate mood, or things connected therewith. : Departure, absence, flight, emigration. A dark young man, friendly. Change
of residence. Reversed: Rupture, division, interruption, discord. |
|
Queen of Wands |
 The Wands throughout this suit are always in leaf,
as it is a suit of life and animation. Emotionally and otherwise, the Queen's personality
corresponds to that of the King, but is more magnetic. : A dark woman, countrywoman, friendly, chaste, loving, honourable. If the
card beside her signifies a man, she is well disposed towards him; if a woman, she is
interested in the Querent. Also, love of money, or a certain success in business. Reversed:
Good, economical, obliging, serviceable. Signifies also--but in certain positions and in
the neighbourhood of other cards tending in such directions--opposition, jealousy, even
deceit and infidelity. |
|
King of Wands |
 The physical and emotional nature to which this
card is attributed is dark, ardent, lithe, animated, impassioned, noble. The King uplifts
a flowering wand, and wears, like his three correspondences in the remaining suits, what
is called a cap of maintenance beneath his crown. He connects with the symbol of the lion,
which is emblazoned on the back of his throne. : Dark man, friendly, countryman, generally married, honest and
conscientious. The card always signifies honesty, and may mean news concerning an
unexpected heritage to fall in before very long. Reversed: Good, but severe;
austere, yet tolerant. |
