Brief Description
It is one of the few minor arcana cards without characters or story scenes. It may seem difficult to interpret, but its meaning is equally clear. A river runs across the vast green grassland. Eight wands are arranged in parallel above the river. The wands are tilted, as if they are about to strike the river. This is reminiscent of Moses’ staff, which symbolizes the beginning and end of all actions. Before taking action, people think, imagine, speculate, persuade, and are full of fantasies. Then everyone decides on their actions, stays grounded, and puts everyone’s ideas into practice. The Eight of Wands means that now is the time to show oneself. Don’t hesitate. All factors are ready. Strike while the iron is hot. Once the action starts, it will progress rapidly. It’s like a hurricane sweeping people up, and soon everything will be settled, with immediate results.
