Positive Attributes
I love this guy. Everyone loves this guy. He’s confident, has some swagger, and is ebullient. He’s constantly on the go and always seems to have time for everyone. He’s kind, compassionate, and engaging. In the Basic deck, he’s wearing the fiery salamander, and his armor covers everything but his face. This card is about being bulletproof. The best time for people to attack us is when we don’t like ourselves. The Knight of Wands loves himself, and the only part of him that is exposed is his face. It’s a small bit of vulnerability in an otherwise resilient person. It’s also interesting, because the knight is traditionally handsome and a wee bit vain. His horse isn’t only on the go, it’s rearing back and seems completely impatient. This card in a reading speaks to confidence and growth. It’s about moving forward, even if you’re unsure of the outcome. Charming, confident, and daring. A fierce friend and passionate even when that passion can get him in trouble. He is strong and smart and makes things happen. He’s unpredictable, enthusiastic, and very much like a bear on the loose. He wants, he takes. Someone takes something of his? He goes to get it. The knight is raring to go, and his friends are with him all the way. Some of them may get trampled in a few minutes, but it wasn’t on purpose, and to be fair, the knight won’t notice for a while, anyway.
Inverted Meaning
“Do you even joust, bro?” Seriously, this is his tagline. He’s driven by his, um, wand. He is impulsive, impetuous, and reckless. He is aggressive and callous. He’s a complete and utter bastard. He is a good, solid person but often gives way to his base impulses before thinking things through. Action, action, action—very little direction.
