Two of Wands
Astrology: Mars, Aries | Element: Fire | Timing: March 21–30
A new world waits to be conquered. A map lays out clear objectives. The sword removes all obstacles, while law can plan and govern the cities already taken. Power, courage, planning, and determination—these are what allow the best decisions to be made and the best outcomes to be expected.
Symbolism:
Rose Sword: The rose represents confidence, passion, and action; the sword represents capability and conquest—together forming the first expression of the “wand.”
Rolled Parchment: Holds two meanings: law and governance on one hand, and a conquered map on the other—resources already obtained, forming the second “wand.”
Directional Marker: Clear guidance toward a defined goal.
New Map: New objectives and challenges; routes and points symbolize execution steps and planning, allowing goals to be broken down into actionable stages.
Clouds Becoming a Map: The goal is initially intangible—through action and planning, a conceptual vision is transformed into reality.
Alchemical Symbol: Fire.
Upright:
Power, courage, planning, decision-making, choice, control, bold decisions, taking responsibility.
Personality: A leader figure—wise, authoritative, decisive, far-sighted, steady, responsible, and trustworthy. Goal-oriented, though sometimes appearing overly independent or serious.
Relationship: Achieving relationship goals, the ability to manage and nurture a relationship, stability, joint planning for the future, clear roles and boundaries. Singles are advised to carefully evaluate options—taking time leads to better outcomes.
Career/Studies: A key stage of planning and decision-making, demonstrating leadership and strategic vision, providing direction for a team. Suitable for setting plans and strategies, having achieved initial success while aiming for longer-term gains.
Finances: Strong investment insight and long-term planning ability. However, avoid relying solely on personal judgment—seeking professional advice at the right time is beneficial.
Advice: You hold both the sword and the map of conquered lands—achievements are already in hand, yet greater gains are desired. Protect what you have while continuing to expand. Maintain vision, control the pace, avoid excessive aggression, and advance with structure. Break the map into individual cities and move step by step toward the final goal.
Reversed:
Restriction, indecision, empty talk, hesitation, dissatisfaction, stalled progress, wrong direction, inner conflict.
Personality: Timid, overly cautious, passive, narrow-minded, short-sighted, lacking courage, prone to overthinking.
Relationship: Unstable development, loss of control over the relationship, uncertainty about the future, overly calculating emotions, avoidance and lack of responsibility, passivity, restriction, sudden separation.
Career/Studies: Plans failing to progress, hesitation and delay, lack of decisiveness, wrong direction, missed opportunities, insufficient patience or clarity, difficulty leaving the comfort zone.
Finances: Lack of suitable opportunities, poor judgment, weak decision-making, unexpected developments, disrupted financial planning. Both impulsive action and passive waiting are unfavorable—adjustments are needed.
Advice: Adjust plans according to how events unfold rather than clinging to fixed methods. As long as you are willing to try, better opportunities will reveal themselves ahead.
