Ace of Wands Tarot Card – Meanings
Ace of Wands Tarot Card Meaning as Feelings
This card conveys the feeling that the clouds are lifting and suddenly there is boundless energy. The new growth on the wand reminds us of springtime and fresh starts.
Ace of Wands Love Meaning
This is a card that is very powerful and where it lands in a spread and what cards surround it will really shade its meaning. It has been associated with someone offering an olive branch and a request for forgiveness. It would be a great sign to let things go and embrace a new cycle together. I can’t help but think of the 50 Shades connection to the switch of the handholds. Perhaps a fun new romance is on the horizon that involves a bit of discipline. Context is key.
Ace of Wands Money Meaning
The Ace of Wands is the card of investors and people trying to hand you dry tinder so that you can rekindle your financial fires. This would be a great card for a budding restauranteur to pull. It is a positive card for partnerships and a good one to meditate on if you need an angel investor in your life.
Ace of Wands Health Meaning
An Ace of Wands is a wind card. It is the first card in the deck so it is positive and has a fresh outlook. It may be good news if you suffer from a cold or allergies because it denotes lots of air freely moving in the lungs. Reversed, this card may indicate a need to slow down and allow yourself to heal lest you relapse and wind up feeling like you were beaten with a stick.
Ace of Wands Yes/No Meaning
Ace of Wands is considered a very strong yes card. However, reversed it is a no.
Ace of Wands Reversed Meaning
Ace of Wands tarot card meaning when reversed indicates you spend too much time building castles in the air. You can go around describing them in great detail but buildings need foundations under them. Be sure you apply just as much energy to the follow-through as you do the dream. A reversed ace of wands can indicate sexual dysfunction in men. The wand is not raised and all that wind blowing through is not a good look for the person who sees this reversal in their tarot spread.
