Ace of Wands

Hello and welcome back! We are starting a new suit today, the suit of wands. The Wands suit is associated with the element of Fire, which is also associated with creativity. But fire can be a tool that is used to build or to destroy, depending on the welder, and the suit of wands show both the constructive and destructive side of this element. I hope you find this interesting, enjoy!

General

The Ace of Wands is generally a good card to get for anything you are asking about. It symbolises creation, especially since it is associated with the element of fire. In traditional tarot, the Ace of Wands is a hand holding a wand that is on a cloud. The wand has some leaves on it that has sprouted which can mean potential that is starting to manifest itself. This is the beginning, the first step. There are opportunities available in the future.

Upright

Usually, the Ace of Wands means that there is a new beginning and this could represent a new creative beginning. In love, this could mean that there is a new and passionate love coming in for you. There is attraction, and passion, and it can sometimes have a phallic meaning to it. Sometimes, it could mean a pregnancy with a male child. In career and finances, drawing this card can mean that you are feeling passionate about your work. Or you could be hearing about a new project that would allow you to pursue and be creative, or simply something you are incredibly interested in. You could be finding new and creative ways to make money or manage your finances too.

Reversed

The Ace of Wands is an amazing card to get when you are starting something new. But when you are in a relationship or you have been working on a project for quite a while, the Ace of Wands may mean that you are starting to lose your passion. You could be addicted to new beginnings and find it difficult to stick to something in the long term. In love, the Ace of Wands could mean that there is a lack of passion in love or that this is a short term sort of love, filled with passion and nothing else. In order to build this relationship into something more, you may have to find something more to bond with this person. In career and finances, there is a lack of progress or a lack of passion for the work that you do. This could also mean that you are losing quite a lot of money due to rashness or recklessness.
