How would you read two of wands as being satisfied/happy on a result or still not up to expectation?
Happy is, perhaps, too strong a word. Satisfied is more right. The man made a choice--took up one wand and left the other, very similar wand behind. He isn't looking back nor judging the wand he picked as "not up to expectations." He may not be ecstatically happy or jumping for joy or anything like that, but he's not regretting his decision either. He's content with his decision, content with the results, and moving on to the next stage.How would you read two of wands as being satisfied/happy on a result or still not up to expectation?
***The 2 wands suggests happy as the guy is at the top surveying his estate. So the card assumes that he is lord and master of his estate.

Very matter-of-fact, very "satisfied."
Adding on "happy" and "satisfied" (I also think "satisfied" is more apt, as it suggests more ownership of the situation), I would add that I think this card is also about some real effort and skill. The two of wands is a first look at the possibilities- what you can really attain with your knowledge, expertise, and desire. It's a shift in perspective, a view of all that one can accomplish, gain, and be.

Based on the picture of this deck, I would say the woman holding on to the test tube is likely showing a new discovery she made with the chemicals. I agree with Thirteen this is more on a satisfied action than being happy. Thank you WF and Thirteen.
