The Intern

The Three of Wands is here to tell you that you are on the right track to where you want to be. I think of this card like an intern, working hard toward the career of her dreams. She’s not exactly where she wants to be yet, but she knows she’s on the right path. She looks out at the sea of opportunity from a high vantage point, where she has a good view of upcoming challenges and possibilities.

During the Journey

While the Two of Wands suggests you are preparing to leave the nest, the Three comes to you when your flight is well under way. Maggie Steifvater described the Three of Wands in a way that really stuck with me: 'It is not a ferocious flame that needs to be tamed; it’s a campfire that requires your attention in order to persist.'

Community and Movement

Threes are always about interaction and communication with others. At this point in your path, you will benefit from community. Take advantage of opportunities and be prepared to keep moving. You have not reached your final destination, but you are on the right road.
