King of Wands


Like the Ace, the King of Wands is the pinnacle of the wands – so the King is fiery, bold, creative, and energetic. You certainly notice him when he enters a room, he has that kind of charisma. And while he may sweep you off your feet, or ignite a new passion in you, like the knight, he is not always good at the detail, and you may be left wondering what happened.


This is a man who needs new adventures and highs to keep the momentum going. He is that wonderful boss, a powerful natural leader who inspires the troops, but not necessarily the best husband (unless you are the Queen of Wands, then you are more than a match for him!) If you are in a wands marriage, it’s fiery, tempestuous and passionate and that’s how both of you like it. However if one of you is wands and the other is not, that can cause problems…

One way to read the King is that you are playing with fire. Of course heat facilitates all kinds of transformations, and we need it. But make sure you are protecting yourself and not getting burnt.


All Tarot Kings are about outward energy and focus. The wands King is a particularly actions oriented guy. This card is about having the confidence to take the leap forward. Use this energy while it is around you as it is a strong, bright flame and it can serve you well.

Queen of Wands


Wands are fire, and the Queen of Wands is a fiery woman – warm, passionate, interested in the world around her. She’s got presence and charisma, lighting up a crowded room - a creative, commanding woman. These women are noticed, and enjoy being noticed: extroverted, strong, thriving in the spotlight. The Queen has the boundless energy of the wands, and she is a capable, imaginative woman. The shadow side of the Queen is when she has moved from energetic and self assured to forceful and proud. Her flaw is that she can be blunt and intolerant; sure her way is the only way. Wands Queens have to make sure they don’t cross the line into bossy or intimidating, or burning their lovers … But when they are good, they are excellent!


The Inner Child card shows the Pied Piper – someone charismatic, a leader who plays their own tune, but beware, if you cross them there will be a high cost.


I love this image, because it captures the controlled intensity of the Queen of Wands, those commanding eyes, that energy barely held in check. She is indeed, a force to be reckoned with.
