Ace of Wands

Guiding words/ideas:

A spark; the beginning of something; excitement; an invitation into the world of Wands—action/fire/energy; a reminder to go one step at a time.

Channeled guidance:

Energy is aligning, and a spark has emerged. This is the beginning of something: an idea, a plan of action, a new chapter. And there is excitement with this newly formed intention. There is clarity, and maybe even a little bit of nervousness, as you stand on the brink of what is next and get ready to fly.

The hand in this card holds the wand loosely and easily. Energy is streaming out, creating fire with little effort. Here lies an invitation into the world of Wands, a world of action, fire, and energy.

And with this invitation comes a gentle reminder to just go one step at a time. Allow yourself to feel the wonderful tension akin to water at the brim of a full glass, almost ready to flow over. It is a delicious vibration. Before you move into action, feel the excitement of this spark and of the opportunity that lies ahead.

There is a full moon in this card, welcoming you into its brilliance, its fullness, and its hopefulness.

Plant and metal guidance:

Coreopsis (orange/golden flame and edges): We are here to smooth out any sharp edges and to aid in opening hearts.

Logwood (dark blue background): Our color connects outwardly but its source lies deep within. We help you reach inside yourself to find strength and beauty.

Copper Oxide (dropped into coreopsis to create orange and as a mordant, and in logwood creating light blue and white): I magnify the properties of whatever plants I touch or impact.

Black walnut (light brown wand with dark brown details): The strength of our magic lies in our ability to clear space and provide opportunities for recharging and resetting.

Onion skin (orange/pink hand): We are a reminder of the layering of experience and self. Layering provides complexity and strength, and we invite you to celebrate your unfolding as you discover yourself and your connections to other beings.
