Card of The Day: Wands.

Usually I pick a single card to think on for the day. Today however I'm going to discuss the suit of wands. As I prattled through the deck, many cards from the suit of wands showed up. It seemed only fitting to talk about the suit as a whole. Wands, sometimes called staffs, possesses themes that weave through the entire suit. Some of these themes are intelligence, ingenuity, and truthfulness.  When we look at the cards in the suit, the wands are not staffs like Gandolff would use. Nor are they like magical wands Harry Potter would have. Wands are more alive than that. You will often see leaves protruding from the wands of the Tarot deck. I can envision a man coming to the top of a mountain, and lean in deep thought upon his trusted staff cut from the living trees around him. Wands can be used in a defensive manner but not as a weapon like in the suit of swords. Traveling and journeys can be associated with this suit as well. Use the thoughtful tools that come from Wands and you can't go wrong.
