2 OF WANDS MEANINGS

What does 2 of Wands mean?

The 2 of Wands represents the planning summit: the figure holds a globe in one hand and looks out from his battlement, one wand gripped, one mounted. The first success is secured; the question is scale. Upright, the card favours bold planning and the discomfort of choosing between the safe holding and the wider world. The globe is in your hand — decide what to do with it. Reversed, vision falters: fear of leaving the castle, plans without commitment, or ambition talked about and never walked.

✦ Upright
  • planning
  • decision making
  • taking risks
  • leaving comfort zone
  • exploring new opportunities
✧ Reversed
  • bad planning
  • overanalyzing
  • not taking action
  • playing it safe
  • avoiding risk
  • indecision

What does 2 of Wands mean in love?

In love, the 2 of Wands upright marks the deciding point: the relationship works — now does it expand? Moving in, long distance closed, the next horizon chosen together. Reversed, it describes a couple at different scales of ambition, or a future everyone discusses and no one schedules.

✦ Upright
  • setting romantic goals
  • making plans in love
  • planning future together
  • exploring new experiences
✧ Reversed
  • failed romantic plans
  • lack of long term prospects

What does 2 of Wands mean for career?
