Description

 "The page lives where the wand, or the flame, is larger than the person. The drive is larger than life's experiences. The thirst for action and the yearning for progress has put you squarely in front of the task so that you can grow beyond your limit."   ~Evelin Burger

Wands often signify travel as well as passion, religion, temper and career. This card can signify a message from far away about a trip, career move, leadership position or something spiritual or philosophical.

This card can relate to a time of new learning, new discoveries, new inventions. There is child-like excitement and energy to get things started.

The Page of Wands is the sort of child (or child-like adult) who is full of energy. Manic, we might call him/her. They always want to go outside and play and are always getting into strange places, climbing trees, wanting to go to distant places, like amusement parks or on camping trips. He/she is never home for dinner on time, and can be frustrating. However, he/she is also so charismatic and optimistic that they're often forgiven. He/she is but happy, fun-loving, enjoys being the center of attention and the leader.

Warning the querent, however, that being "immature" this person might tend to bully others or throw temper tantrums. The clues residing in the Italian/Latin translations of the card title - Fante di Bastoni; Sota de Bastos.

The wand that the page is holding has crystals dangling from its tip, representing insight, power, and the search for wisdom.

The figure is looking towards the horizon, representing optimism and joy, drive.

The desert around her is symbolic of the corresponding element fire and your own "fire". It is at the same time symbolic of the fact that you must not get lost, that you can't "lose" yourself.

The Egyptian pyramids are represented in the background, symbolizing exploration of far-off lands and new territories either physically or metaphorically so.

She is a young woman, a Page, showing that you must be playful and enthusiastic. She holds the wand in such a way that it seems more of an item to be cared for or used with respect.

Her draping is deep reds, representing the element of fire, as it was thought to be able to walk through flames.

Sold at Emerald City Comicon 2014.
