Characteristics of the Ace of Wands
The Ace of Wands is pure potential, in its most raw and natural state. This firey energy can reveal itself as a burst of inspiration, creativity, or action. Once it manifests in the real world, it can lead to the beginnings of a new career or new sexual relationship. The Ace of Wands is full of life, and contains both the idea and the ability to see it through. Its heat can also manifest more literally, such as a heat wave or a fever. Wands are difficult to control, and the Ace is its purest essence of wild, unbridled creation.
