Ace of Wands
This card presents mysterious marsh lights—illusory flickers that nevertheless symbolize sudden inspiration and the presence of a higher spirit guiding through darkness. The lights and orbs illuminate dark passages and offer clarity, while the marsh water reflects the deep reservoirs of the mind. Flickers of wisdom and creative insight arise from these inner depths, inviting new beginnings. You may "see the light" as a harbinger for change, but remain discerning because the initial allure can be deceptive.
