Full Meaning

The Knight of Wands when representing a person is symbolic of a teen who likes to live life in the 'fast lane'. He/she really enjoys their fast cars and parties and loves to live life to the full. This teen however may have a very fiery and forthright nature, but on all counts he/she will be very keen to get in amongst all of the action. However in general the focus of The Knight of Wands is on decision making and certainly some changes are starred. As with the whole suit of wands travel is also on the cards. It is possible that you may also find yourself changing jobs, or moving home, or even embarking upon a new relationship. Certainly if you have been somewhat bored with life at present, all of that is now about to change. This card has even been linked to emigration.

Traditional Symbolism
