"Confidence isn't the question. What you do next is."
Six quick picks first, then your reading
A queen sits on her throne, holding a sunflower with a black cat at her side. Wands represent passion and the queen card represents nurturing/matriarchy. Typically the face cards represent a person/event (or a part of yourself embodied). Together this card means a confident maternal figure who is helping you achieve your dreams/goals. She has achieved part of what you want to achieve and she can offer wisdom (and emotional support) to you.
You are protected by a force of passion and creativity. You are able to learn and grow under her wing and are coming to embody a true leader in your pursuits. If you are growing a business now is the time to train others and expand. If you are in a relationship perhaps consider working on a creative project together or building a house together. Your intuition is especially strong and you can sense what others need to be successful.
You are blocked by your lack of confidence, you have all the training and skills and passions to be a leader and to run your domain, but you are relying on the advice of others or not taking yourself as seriously as you should. See your anxieties as they come up and set them aside for you to address on a specific schedule.

Queen of Wands for Scorpio in Self and Identity
The Transformer
Wands are the fire suit, so the Queen of Wands sits in Aries. Aries and Scorpio are quincunx, two signs with nothing in common: no shared element, mode, or polarity. This card will not slot neatly into how Scorpio already operates. What it wants is this: spend the energy on one thing today. It has to be done deliberately or it will not happen. Upright, this is the element held internally, by someone with nothing left to prove about it.
When reading about yourself through a Scorpio lens, the Queen of Wands says that you feel like your own motives are worth interrogating endlessly, a mystery even to you (or especially to you), and something you will judge harshly before anyone else gets the chance. This has either led to you becoming very honest about what you actually want, or to you believing you do not deserve it. You have been so focused on who you think you should be that you haven't checked in with who you actually are. The Scorpio blind spot in it is the feeling of being fooled, or of being seen as naive, or of depending on someone who will leave.
In practice that can look like wanting something again, or restlessness with a direction. Whatever form it takes, it is held by someone who has been through it already.
