Page of Wands tarot card

"Enthusiasm isn't the question. What you do next is."

Six quick picks first, then your reading

On the card

A young man stands in the act of proclamation. He is unknown but faithful, and his tidings are strange. Wands represent passion and pages represent a message from the divine. Together this card represents exciting news about adventures and following your creative flow. Typically the face cards represent a person/event (or a part of yourself embodied).

Upright
EnthusiasmExplorationFree SpiritNew Adventures

You have received good news or read/watched something inspiring. It has re-ignited a childlike sense of joy. Romantically, your partner brings out a creative side who wants to adventure. Perhaps at work you are about to get get a new job that will open doors for you in a field you have dreamed of. Be open to the messages and let yourself play as a kid again.

Reversed

You have received good news and are feeling inspired, but have not grounded yourself before acting. Perhaps you are now in a more precarious position than what you wanted. Parent yourself-- it's good to have been excited, and it's okay to have gotten a little carried away, but now you must pause to regulate your emotions and activate your reasoning brain before jumping ahead.

Page of Wands for Aries in The Future

The Initiator

Wands are the fire suit, so the Page of Wands sits in Aries. That makes this Aries's own card, so nothing in it is being read from the outside, and the flattering interpretation is the one to distrust. What it asks for is the thing Aries already believes it is good at: spend the energy on one thing today. Upright, this is someone at the start of the element: sincere, curious, not yet any good at it.

When reading about what comes next through an Aries lens, the Page of Wands says that you feel like the future is happening right now and you are late for it, something to grab before it passes (or before you miss your window), and the only thing that matters more than what is actually in front of you. This has either made you the person who sees what is coming and moves first, or left you burned out from trying to run toward every door at once. You already know what comes next, and you are afraid of what it will cost you to get there. The Aries blind spot in it is the feeling that nothing you do makes any difference, that you are not the center of the story.

In practice that can look like a leap, or booking the thing. Whatever form it takes, it arrives as news, or as someone new and sincere.
