Visual Description
A figure stands on a raised mound with legs braced wide, gripping a long wand held diagonally as if in defense. Six other staves with star-shaped tips rise behind and around the figure like stakes, and a circular, concentric halo frames the head. The scene is dominated by a bright yellow field, a white winding path descends the hill, and decorative corner patterns border the card; the Roman numeral VII appears at the top and the word "wands" at the bottom.
