Upright Meaning

The fire-king rests in a meadow, his branches radiating green life energy while his crown burns with bright light. The King of Wands symbolizes pure fire energy. He doesn't pursue specific concrete goals, but seeks opportunities to change the world according to his vision. He masterfully initiates projects and inspires others to work, using his influence and talent for encouragement. This Arcana indicates that you are an enthusiastic and determined nature with far-reaching plans. The King of Wands also warns against displays of arrogance and aggression on the path to your goal.
