"Enthusiasm isn't the question. What you do next is."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
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).
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.
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 Leo in Self and Identity
The Creator
Wands are the fire suit, so the Page of Wands sits in Leo. That makes this Leo'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 Leo 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 yourself through a Leo lens, the Page of Wands says that you feel like your image is the thing you are always refining, something that could always be more impressive (or more real), and the constant distance between who you are and who you appear. This has either built genuine self-awareness through the practice of refinement, or left you exhausted from maintaining two different people. You have been so focused on who you think you should be that you haven't checked in with who you actually are. The Leo blind spot in it is being ordinary, being forgotten, being the one no one thought to invite, being seen doing something mediocre.
In practice that can look like wanting something again, or restlessness with a direction. Whatever form it takes, it arrives as news, or as someone new and sincere.
