Queen of Wands tarot card

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

Six quick picks first, then your reading

On the card

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.

Upright
ConfidenceIndependenceWarmthDetermination

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.

Reversed

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 Taurus in Self and Identity

The Builder

Wands are the fire suit, so the Queen of Wands sits in Aries. Aries sits directly beside Taurus, the one relationship a sign cannot see clearly because it is too close to get any distance on. What it asks for is this: spend the energy on one thing today. The difficulty is noticing it is being asked at all. Upright, this is the element held internally, by someone with nothing left to prove about it.

When reading about yourself through a Taurus lens, the Queen of Wands says that you feel like you are a finished thing that should not change, a body with specific rules, and someone who knows what works and sticks to it. This has either meant missing the person you could have become, or developing such clarity about yourself that you move through the world without apology. You have been so focused on who you think you should be that you haven't checked in with who you actually are. The Taurus blind spot in it is the feeling that the ground is shifting under something they thought was permanent.

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.
