Queen of Wands

A woman fully in her fire. The Queen of Wands is radiant, grounded, unafraid to take up space; she draws others with the heat of her own life rather than demanding attention.

Jealousy, insecurity turned outward, or the warmth curdled into control. The fire has been asked to prove itself — it never needed to.

✦ The Illustration

A crowned feminine figure sits between lion-headed throne posts; a wand in one hand, a sunflower beside the throne, a black cat alert at her feet.

✦ Affirmation

“I burn for my own sake, and others are warmed by it.”
