Ace of Wands

A creative fire has been lit. The Ace of Wands marks the raw beginning of a passion, venture, or spiritual impulse. Accept the spark — and act on it.

The spark sputters. Hesitation, false starts, or a creative block delay the beginning. The idea is sound; the timing or confidence is not yet ready.

✦ The Illustration

A single flowering wand rises from a cloud-borne divine hand, fresh leaves sprouting along its length as golden rays radiate outward across the desert horizon.

✦ Affirmation

“I accept the fire that has been placed in my hands.”
