Knight of Wands

The Knight of Wands is action at full speed with the details unread. Charismatic, impulsive, magnetic and genuinely brave, and not somebody to rely on for the long middle of anything.

Bold, decisive movement. Passion, adventure, charging at it. Excellent when speed matters more than precision. Travel and relocation are common literal readings.

Recklessness, arrogance, burning out. Starting hard and leaving. Or the energy blocked, frustration with no outlet.

Passionate, fast, exciting, unreliable. Great chemistry, unclear commitment. Reversed, someone who pursues intensely then vanishes.

A high-energy push, a bold move, a risk taken. Reversed, a project charged into without planning and abandoned mid-way.

Impulsive financial decisions. High risk. Occasionally high reward, and not to be counted on.

Passion as a legitimate path. The value and the limit of intensity.

High energy, athleticism, and injury from going too hard. Sagittarius rules the hips and thighs.

A knight in salamander-embroidered armour on a rearing horse, visor up, leaning forward. The horse is not under full control and neither of them minds.

Golden Dawn assigned the Knights the fiery part of their element, making the Knight of Wands fire-of-fire: the most volatile figure in the entire seventy-eight.
