Three Cards
The three card tarot spread is one of the oldest methods. You can get to the heart of your question with a simple three-card Tarot reading. In this spread, there are three different positions which can be changed by to your preference, Past – Present – Future (or Situation – Action – Outcome, Situation – Obstacle – Advice and etc.).
The meaning of the card you choose varies according to it’s position.
This opening provides a GENERAL perspective to the period you are in. Or you can evaluate the comments in the frame of your question.
Page of Swords
Upright
New ideas, curiosity, thirst for knowledge, new ways of communicating
The Page of Swords card shows a person with enthusiasm and motivation. When this card appears in a Tarot reading, you are full of new plans for the future. You may be thrilled about starting a new project, attempting a new method or learning something fresh. You feel as like you could do practically anything. The difficulty is whether you can continue it. As with all Page cards, the start always looks encouraging, but you need something else to keep up the movement.
The Page of Swords often appears when you are discovering a new way of thinking. You have a questioning mind and a desire for learning. You may be likely to make errors along the way, but you are excited to learn from your mistakes.
As the Swords cards link to communication, the Page of Swords implies that you are finding a distinctive way of expressing your thoughts and communicating your opinions. You may be attracted to speaking in public, writing a novel or a blog, beginning a podcast. You are ready to take the next step to send your messages to the world.
The Page of Swords can also describe your connection with a person who is exploring their capability to interact, share opinions, and gather knowledge. You need to stay open to their interest to get more knowledge about the world.
Reversed
Self-expression, all talk and no action, haphazard action, haste
The reversed Page of Swords can show up in a Tarot reading when you are staying back from communicating your truth, particularly in a public discussion. You like to declare your opinions personally or anonymously. Maybe you like to keep a secret journal, or you’re writing a text just for yourself.
Sometimes, the reversed Page of Swords can indicate that you just speak without any action. Be cautious about making false commitments or saying something which you’ll later change. This reversed Page may try to surprise you with big stories, however, you later find out are great distortions of the truth.
In the reversed position, the Page of Swords can also hint you are acting recklessly, without considering things through. You have a lot of power but are not using it efficiently.
As this Page likes to ask questions, in reversal, it can be a warning that you are disturbing others by your continuous questioning. You may just be attempting to understand a circumstance or a thought better, there are more effective methods to go about it. Be aware of how you may come to others and only inquiry about those ideas that are essential to you.
Knight of Wands
Upright
Energy, passion, inspired action, adventure, impulsiveness
While the Page of Wands indicates the first flash of an idea, the Knight of Wands tells the chase of that idea. You are full of enthusiasm, and you communicate that energy through your action. You have a definite vision about what you want to build and you are now moving ahead with leaps and bounds to turn your fantasy into reality. This card is a clue to go for it!
You are courageous to reach into unfamiliar territories to advance your purpose and your dreams. You don’t mind if risk lies ahead – in fact, if it does, then it grows all the more interesting and exciting for you.
The Knight of Wands gives you the sense you can conquer the world! As you track your goals, your self-confidence boosts, and you understand that your potential is unlimited.
Be careful that the Knight of Wands could also expose himself as an ‘act first, think later’ type of character. You may be impatient, requiring everything to be done yesterday. While you are exploding with energy, you tend to hurry into things with little concern for the results of your activities. If this resonates, find a way to concentrate your energy on the actions that will move you closer to your purpose. Rather than acting on a new idea right away, take a moment to review if it truly adjusts with your goals and whether it needs to take place right now. You may realize that you are better followed by waiting for the suitable time to manifest this idea, particularly if other ‘delay’ cards, such as the Hanged Man, Four of Swords, show up in your reading.
Reversed
Passion project, haste, scattered energy, delays, frustration
The reversed Knight of Wands may arise when you are actively pursuing an enthusiasm plan. A fire has been burned within you, and now you are doing everything to run this project ahead. You have no intention of turning it into a furious success – it is for you to be happy.
The reversed Knight of Wands can indicate that you are feeling a significant boost of energy but are unsure about how to channel it into the world efficiently. You may have a creative uneasiness, knowing that you are designed for something ‘big’, but you are limited from making effort right now. Maybe there are frustrating obstacles, unbeatable barriers standing in your way. Search alternative ways to proceed with your enthusiasm or manifest your idea. You may need to modify your path slightly while being true to your initial idea.
Furthermore, the reversed Knight of Wands implies that you may be acting carelessly, trying to finish everything at once. You are rushing from one task to the other, without concentrating on the parts or securing victory. The reversed Knight of Wands also hints that you could act impulsively, doing something that you may later regret.
Ace of Wands
Upright
Inspiration, new opportunities, growth, potential
Being an Ace, this Wands card offers you pure potential in your energetic realm. Impressions are flowing to you, motivating you to try a new path. You are open to getting new opportunities in life. An infinite possibility is accessible to you.
The Ace of Wands encourages you to live your passion. If you sense a strong pull towards a new path but are questioning it, then this card gives you a gentle push to proceed to your passion. Let your energy and dedication guide you.
Use your creative energy to take the first step. Even if you would like to plan out everything before you begin to step into a specific path, the Ace of Wands asks you to listen to your instincts. Start with some fundamentals to get things working, and then continue to develop. The essential thing is that you act now rather than wasting more time researching.
Don’t forget that the Aces represent pure potential but not guaranteed outcomes. The Ace of Wands (or any Ace) is an indication of a seed that has yet to blossom into something more extraordinary.
In a love reading the Ace of Wands signals desire and passion; things will be heating up! Your connection may take on a very sexual character at this moment, and the same time supports potential romances if you’re single. There is a good opportunity for rekindling the flames, and to feel more connected.
Reversed
An emerging idea, lack of direction, distractions, delays
The Reversed Ace of Wands hints that you can sense an idea rising from inside but are unsure what pattern it will take or how you will manifest it. You may have energy and passion, but you do not yet have a way to express them. You may be waiting for something to happen itself before you proceed to this idea. Or, you may not feel very confident and choose to keep your idea secret. All of these amazing ideas are appearing, but now you must find a method to provide this creative energy to set you up.
The reversed Ace of Wands can hint that you are finding it challenging to determine your mission in life and what you want to produce. To solve this stagnation, you need first to concentrate on where your true passions extend; there is no point in working towards a purpose if it does not excite you.
The reversed Ace of Wands may show that delays are preventing the progression of your projects. You are likely to feel very anxious. Timing is necessary for success, so be patient and wait for the best moment to move forward.
