King of Wands
MBTI: ENTJ | Astrology: Leo, Cancer | Element: Fire | Time: Jul 22 – Aug 22
At the tip of the candlewick, wax tears surge. A majestic king is born from the flame. Streams of gold-red fire form his long hair, and a living crown of fire burns above his head. Nine white birds cut through the night, like nine suns converging into his open palm. Their wings scatter stardust, which sprouts among the green plants on the candle’s body. Moss climbs the wax walls. The king opens his hand, and the birds carry back stories from distant lands. All brave seekers will one day reunite within the firelight.
