Ace of Wands
The Ace of Wands symbolizes the elemental power of Air and an energetic push toward action, creativity, and transformation. It denotes physical or sexual virility, shifting tides, and the power to create change by choosing to act rather than refrain. Reversed, it signals stagnation, impotence, delays, resistance to change, or failed actions and magick. In magickal practice the card is used to invoke change, speed, and the Air element, while reversed it can be used to stop or hinder actions already in progress.
