Miriam Reads Tarot - Episode 037: Knight Of Wands Tarot Card
This knight is always on the move and loves to take risks. He is a go-getter who knows what he wants and goes after it with his heart. He is courageous and confident but can also be impulsive and reckless. Before delving more into what it means when you get the Knight of Wands in a reading, let's go over the history and appearance of the card. The History And Appearance Of The Knight of WandsThe Knight of Wands tarot card has a long and storied history. It is one of the oldest tarot cards, dating back to the 15th century. The Knight of Wands was initially known as the "Knight of Cups" and was associated with the medieval knightly class. As you know, there is a Knight of Cups, but it is different, and I will go over that one when I get to the Cups suit. The card represented chivalry, honor, and valor. In the 18th century, the Knight of Wands became known as the "Knight of Swords" and was associated with warfare and conflict. As you also know, there is a Knight of Swords which is different now, and the Swords suit will be the next one I will cover after this. The 20th century saw a return to the Knight of Wands' original meaning, with the card once again representing chivalry and honor. Today, the Knight of Wands is still considered a powerful and positive tarot card, signifying strength, courage, and determination. Now, let's talk about the appearance of the Knight of Wands card in the Rider-Waite-Smith deck. The knight is wearing armor wearing a yellow robe with salamanders as patterns representing the fire element and a helmet. He is sitting on a horse with red plumes behind him. He has a wand in his right hand, representing his enthusiasm, and the horse is rising, which means he is ready to take off. However, there is a dry and mountainous land in the background, and the knight sees the potential to do something to change that. Let's now look and see what it means when you get the Knight of Wands in a reading. What It Means To Get The Knight of Wands In A ReadingThe Knight of Wands is a highly energetic and passionate card associated with movement, adventure, and risk-taking. If you get this card in a reading, it suggests that you are about to embark on a new journey or phase in your life. This may be a physical journey, such as moving to a new location, or a symbolic one, like starting a new relationship or beginning a new project. Whatever it is, the Knight of Wands urges you to seize the opportunity and go for it. This card can also indicate that you are feeling restless and antsy like you need to make a change in your life. If you have been feeling stuck in a rut, the Knight of Wands suggests that it's time to take action and shake things up. This isn't a card for sitting around and waiting for something to happen - it's time to get out there and make them happen. The Knight of Wands can also represent someone in your life who is coming into your life or who is already a part of it. This person is likely to be high-energy, passionate, and exciting. They may also be impulsive and reckless, so beware of getting swept up in their drama. However, they can also be a force for good in your life, encouraging you to take risks and live life to the fullest. It can also represent an enthusiastic teenager on the go in your life, or it could be an aspect of someone’s personality who you know, or yourself. And this teen or individual who has this personality is full of so many creative ideas and wants to execute them as quickly as possible. They are so charismatic; they are the cool guys or gals of the crows, full of energy, and do not want to sit around. They want to get things done. So either you present an idea to them, and they like it and don’t want to wait to turn the concept into reality, or they have a great idea that they turn into reality themselves. For instance, the Knight of Wands will be the one to come up with planning a surprise birthday party for their good friend. And not only do they come up with the idea, but they will take action on it. They will call caterers, and party stores, send invitations, and so on. The Knight of Wands will not wait on this. They also may end up spending more money than they have in their budget as well. Oops. When you think of careers associated with the Knight of Wands, you may think of someone specializing in competitive jobs, outdoor work, driving, travel, or being an ambulance driver or a firefighter. The last thing she wants to be around is someone full of fire, enthusiastic, and part of the popular crowd that she never was. Well, I was not either, but the difference is, I don't care now, unlike how I did back then. And here is the thing. Many of those who struggle with depression can have Knight of Wands energy, and that is when you would be surprised to learn that they have depression. However, as you know, Risa Green does not have an ounce of enthusiasm in her as she is not only burned out from having to care for everyone's needs. And her mental state and unprocessed trauma are burning her out. And that is also why she would not want that type of energy around her. She would shut down, quite likely. She would tune them out if they enthusiastically told her to take action on something. So now, let's go over what the Knight of Wands reversed means. Knight of Wands ReversedThe Knight of Wands reversed indicates that there is just as much passion as it appears in the card upright. But there is no direction or organization. The approach is scattered, and there is no planning. There are also delays and frustration over it. Or, even with the passion and enthusiasm, there is so much fear that nothing gets done at all. Think about how someone is enthusiastic about speaking about what they love in public. However, once they are ready to speak, they freeze up and bail out at the last minute. That is one example of the Knight of Wands in reverse. Now, how can you apply the Knight of Wands to your life? How To Apply The Knight of Wands To Your LifeI would say this is a good card to focus on if you do want to do some type of physical activity. If you are attempting to find the drive to go for that run, brisk walk, swim or do your aerobics workout. And this is also a good card to focus on if you have an idea already in place, inspired by the Page of Wands, so you can take action on it. It does not matter if it is a novel you want to write, an art piece you want to create, or anything. The Knight of Wands wants you to take action and just do it. The next card I will go over is the Queen of Wands. You’re a free subscriber to Miriam Reads Tarot . For the full experience, become a paid subscriber. |
