Wands are also referred to as Staves, Staffs, or Batons. They correspond to the playing card suit of Clubs, and many early tarot decks depict this suit as wooden clubs. This suit represents the element Fire, and the social class of Peasantry. Wands are considered a Masculine suit. Wands typically represent creative or entrepreneurial projects, information, travel, and will - whether it be free will, or strength of willpower.

The Tens typically concern an extreme abundance, which can be positive or negative, such as an abundance of riches or friendships, or an overburdening of work, or pressure and commitment, or even an absolute destruction.

Burden. Responsibility. Hard work. Stress. Achievement. Challenges. Intense pressure. Oppression. Over-commitment.

Most often, the Ten of Wands card carries the meaning of overload and burdening situations where too much responsibility has been taken on by the subject. It is hard to let go of creative projects and responsibility, but you should allow others to help shoulder your burden.


Present: Nine of Cups

Cups are also referred to as chalices and may be represented by religious grails or goblets. They correspond to the playing card suit of Hearts. This suit represents the element Water, and the social class of Clergy. Cups are considered a Feminine suit. Cups typically represent emotions, love, and spiritual beliefs.

The Nines typically concern completion, perfection, the end of a cycle, independence, self-reliance, inner strength, and satisfaction. Nines can also represent defensiveness, an inability to give and take, loss, and martyrdom.

Wishes fulfilled. Comfort. Happiness. Satisfaction.

This card can indicate that the questioner is having a wish fulfilled or achieving what they desire. They may have or be about to achieve their desires and dreams. It can also indicate that all is well with the world, or that the questioner is feeling pleased, contented, or smug. It may refer to an experience of luxury, a delicious meal, fine arts, or making love.


Hidden Influences: Eight of Wands

Wands are also referred to as Staves, Staffs, or Batons. They correspond to the playing card suit of Clubs, and many early tarot decks depict this suit as wooden clubs. This suit represents the element Fire, and the social class of Peasantry. Wands are considered a Masculine suit. Wands typically represent creative or entrepreneurial projects, information, travel, and will - whether it be free will, or strength of willpower.

The Eights typically concern solidity, thick walls, skill, patience, achievement, change, and future contentment. Eights may also concern being enmeshed in the material world, trapped, caught between a rock and a hard place, revolution, travel, and showing strength to move quickly and escape a difficult situation.

Speed. Action. Movement. Swift change. Hasty actions. Journey. Travel. Flight. Motion. End to a delay.

A card of action; swiftness. Rapid growth in a business or creative project. Conveys immediate information or action. News swiftly travelling. Because the suit of Wands relates to information, look for new communication and unexpected news. Depending on surrounding cards in the draw, may indicate the speed of these events.


Advice: Knight of Swords

Swords were typically depicted with curved blades in ancient tarot decks to distinguish them from staves. They correspond to the playing card suit of Spades, (in Italian, spada means sword). This suit represents the element Air, and the social classes of Nobility and Military. Swords are considered a Masculine suit. Swords typically represent intellect, reason, mental clarity, and the sciences. They may also represent conflicts surrounding the questioner.

The Knights typically concern teenagers or young adults. They may represent impulsiveness, higher learning, enthusiasm, questing for experience and knowledge, change and opportunity, growth, and confidence, sometimes false confidence.

Opinionated. Hasty. Action-oriented. Communicative.

The Knight of Swords is often taken to represent a confident and articulate young man, who may act impetuously. The problem is that this knight, though visionary, is unrealistic. He fights bravely, but foolishly. In some illustrations, he is shown to have forgotten his armour or his helmet in his rush to war.


Outcome: The Tower

Chaos. Sudden change. Impact. Hard times. Crisis. Revelation. Disruption. Realizing the truth. Disillusion. Crash. Burst. Uncomfortable experience. Downfall. Ruin. Ego blow. Explosive transformation. Disaster. Upheaval. Sudden change. Revelation.

The Tower, which is depicted in some older decks as Fire, or Lightning, is a symbol of catastrophe. It harks back to the story of the Tower of Babel, in which God destroyed a tower built by humankind to reach the heavens. The catastrophe depicted by The Tower can be physical, or it can be a metaphorical or spiritual crisis. The Tower represents chaos in the questioner's life, and this may be as great as a crash or a downfall, or as small as an uncomfortable experience or a blow to the ego. The Tower card is not wholly negative, as it can also depict a revelation or a sudden realisation of the truth, along with explosive transformation.
